🏈 Some SEC hate from a CBS sportswriter

This should generate some discussion during a bye week:

Ok. I have read this op-ed piece. Just tell me how many contradictions you can find in this guy's writing.

I am no flag waving fan of the SEC because I feel the "brethren" abandoned us many years ago but articles like this make it hard to not pull for the SEC in, at least, all bowl games.

Ok...here's the weird part. A little about Mr. Doyel's background:

Gregg Doyel was born in Hawaii. He grew up in Mississippi where his father was a law professor at the University of Mississippi. Doyel attended high school in Georgia and attended college at the University of Florida, where he was a sports writer for the Independent Florida Alligator.

So I get it now. He's the CBS Finebaum. That's all I needed to know.

Typical anti-SEC garbage.....amounts to nothing but hate propaganda.

I'll save this article until after bowl season. Then we'll see who is right

would be interesting to read his columns after bowl season ends

Nice guy this Doyle...making public the real opinions of voter who are too weak to say what they REALLY mean.

Its odd that he references tough interconference games as proof that the conference can't stand up to other conferences. Hey, I wasn't impressed with the Detroit Lions last year but I'm not stupid enough to think me reserving being impressed would mean the Lions could not beat its share of College teams.

Pretty selective he is. Considering UCLA/UT, but not mentioning Auburn's win over a ranked W VA team, LSU's road win over the team that beat his revered USC, our win over the Hokies. UT lost to a really bad Wyoming team a year ago, but that didn't keep the SEC from being the best league.
