This is a fun read.

"If the facts are on your side, pound the facts. If the law is on your side, pound the law. If neither the facts nor the law is on your side, pound the table." Sankey is channeling his inner Khrushchev.

Why would SEC's Greg Sankey deny Big Ten superiority? Here's one idea

Thanks, Steven, for the post and the photo of Special K, who was forced into retirement by his Mother Russia.

OK, SEC, in football, you buried that conference up north, B1G time. But that was yesterday and ...

But as a fan of a B1G team, the last thing I need to hear when Big Ten teams defeat an SEC team in any sport is: Big Ten! Big Ten, Big Ten!

USC football opened and closed its 2024 season with wins over LSU and Texas A+M. Hats off to the Trojans, the only Big Ten team on the field in both games. The Trojans SEC double dip did nothing to improve Purdue's football program.

I live in Dixie. Except for sports in the SEC, people are civil, gracious, and nice as can be, even to displaced Yankees.

I just posted a comment on Charles's terrific, in-depth take on tonight's game vs. Texas. The Texas coach compliments Oregon, kind of, after noting that Texas plays in a better conference.

He isn't wrong, but why the need to frame everything with 'my conference is better than your conference'?

Thank you, Tony Petitti, for speaking softly and carrying a B1G stick.

Instead of pounding the table, Sankey can pound sand.

The 'my conference is better than yours' silliness is all about the mighty $$.

In today's world, if you say something loud enough and often enough, that will convince a lot of folks it must be true.

The SEC is always pitching itself as the best to get more teams selected for the playoffs and more $$ from TV.

Sadly they convince too many too often.

Talk is cheap, unless you control the media.

Go Ducks. Best the Longhorns.
