SEC has won 7 out of the last 10 national championships, they have the most players in the NFL, they have had the most players drafted 9 years in a row, they have the biggest stadiums, they lead attendance by a huge margin both at home and on the road.
I get it, SEC schedules soft OOC, but they can get away with it because they have tougher in conference games than anyone else, and not by a narrow margin. Seriously. SEC West? That's not a conference division; that's a feeder system into the NFL.
