As If It Really Needs To Be Said Again

The Southeastern Conference is the best conference for athletics in college sports.

Period.

Name the sport: Football? Are you kidding? Only the Big 10 comes close, and you saw what Florida did to Ohio State. Basketball? Okay, top-to-bottom there are other conferences with more teams, but when it comes to making the final fours, the SEC sends somebody no matter how bad the seeds or the slights. Baseball? Check the college World Series and you'll notice usually 3 out of 8 schools. Swimming? Auburn, four straight national titles in both men's & women's. Gymanastics? The top four schools in the nation are all SEC. Softball? 3 of the top 10, including #1 & #2.

And with the Gators beating Ohio State again last night for the national championship, well, just adds to the obvious.

Now graduation rates and national merit scholars and Rhoades scholars and such are entirely different matters...
