Are the defenses that good in the SEC or is it the offenses are just that bad. Fla doesn't seem to have a trouble scoring, but the have an offense. The last time I checked you don't get points for sending players to the NFL. They don't need to comment on teams the don't watch often. I wonder what they would say if they called Big XII games - These teams have the best offenses in the country. When you get down to it I would put UT' & OU against any team in the country.

And even with all those pass-happy teams (the nation's top four passing attacks), the Big 12's pass-defense stats were not much worse than the SEC's. This idea that the SEC is "tougher" than the Big 12 is nonsense. I agree with JForce's prediction of a 7-0 shutout in bowl games for Big 12 teams.

Now that is an offensive juggernaut alright. So far I have not found and objective analyst or reporter nor any announcer in the media on this subject. Appears to be just like the last presidential campaign. Bias for the whiners. Danielson payed for the Detroit Lions. Now that is an offensive juggernaut alright.

He’s a Big 10 man, graduate, former player (Purdue). His son attended Northwestern and played QB. He played for the Detroit Lions (Big 10 country). He’s big pals with Brent Musberger (also a Northwestern graduate) who puts on a big show when he’s broadcasting the Big 12 games, but is a staunch Big 10er. Danielson conveniently forgets the 38-7 bashing Missouri (arguably the 4th or 5th team in the Big 12 this year) put on Arkansas in the 2008 Cotton Bowl—when Arkansas had the two glamour backs—. And he thinks the Georgia QB Stafford is the quintessential Pro QB because he doesn’t “dink and dunk” as Big 12 QBs do. I don’t think averaging 8-10 yards a pass is a dink or dunk. Were Montana and Young dinkers and dunkers? Let’s see what happens after this year’s series of bowl games. I’m sure organizers are trying to arrange BIG 12 vs. SEC match-up games. I’ll take Oklahoma, Texas, OSU, Texas Tech, Missouri, Nebraska and Kansas in these contests. The Big 12 could go 7-0 in bowl wins. We need to understand the myopic context of Danielson’s comments.

During the the MN/CHI game last weekend, Peterson was running against who else? Tommie Harris and Dusty Dvorcek. Also, MN had Kevin Williams on their DL from OK State. The other half of the crushing Williams duo with Pat Williams who played for who? Texas A&M. Well, I guess they did just get suspended but still. Not to say the SEC doesn't put out some impressive Defensive players, but don't act like other conferences dont. Just a thought... funny remark about the DL’s and LB’s.
