He said poll. Not top 10. Though your stat is more interesting, he isn't wrong.

Actually, SEC is 8/25 of the poll = 32% which is greater than 1/4. Regardless of the math, very impressive.

The top was as expected....Florida is number 1 because they are the 2-time champs...I am not sure they are the best team this year. Michigan is #2 because they have almost their entire team back from last year...then LSU.

The SEC dominance over the Pac-12 is real. It took 20 years, but the Pac-12 monster has finally been tamed by the SEC.

Check your math. 4 out of top 5. That's like 81%

7 out of 25 is technically 28%, but 1/4 is close enough.

I wanted to say the same thing, but last time I did, I got blasted by everyone, so I let someone else say it first.

BTW: I have season tickets to football and basketball as well as softball and I live in Houston. If I can support all sports, why can't the rest of Tiger Nation??

I kinda started it.....the OP originally just had the top 10 instead of the top 25,then later went back and added the next 15 which kinda sorta threw things off a little.

Carry on, minus the math...

Yes, I'll take the blame on it.... I did add 5 at a time to make sure the format looked correct instead of using the PREVIEW button.

You know how us dumb Texas Tigers can be sometimes..lol

Geology pays the bills and I found it fascinating also. Seems like people are a little sensitive today over the math quotes. And I was wrong. It is 8 and not 7. I still have a hard time acknowledging Missouri as an SEC team.

Hmmmm, agreed but back on track....can't wait to see those talented and success motivated young ladies strive for a NC, while in parallel fashion with hardball, after a nice basketball season. LSU sports are keeping us bizy!

I recently saw one of the players in a store, and, uh, she obviously had many talents. Wow.

And yes, they certainly appear to have those talents as well...
