What's more important, SEC the reg season champions or winning the tournament?

Just curious.

The elaborate trophy ceremony made it seem like the tournament was the "real" championship.

We won both, so it doesn't matter, I just see 30 games as more significant than 4-5.

What's your opinion?

Regular season is more impressive to me. But, winning both is strong.

Just to be safe, let's take both.


Oh wait...

Regular season and it's not even close.

Winning over a 30 game schedule is a great accomplishment.

The SECT is so screwed up by format it's sometimes a fluke.

The regular season is a ten week grind. Tourney is a long weekend.

The SEC tourney is not easy to win.

I have respect for both champions.

Not to take away anything from this past week, I totally agree.

Watching the SEC tournament they seemed to pimp Florida as SEC regular season champs more than LSU as Co-Champs. Winning the tournament should get us more recognition as SEC CHAMPS.

I noticed that. The rules are pretty clear. Announcers pumping Florida obviously either don't know the rules or were pumping the game they were calling.

I know. Just trying to get a feel for what the fanbase considers a greater achievement.

I personally think the reg season is a bigger deal. That said, nobody celebrates the NFL team with the best record, they celebrate who won the tournament at the end. So I have no shame in saying that the tournament is a big deal.

You calling the SECT the Super Bowl? The comparison to the end of the season tournament that is so celebrated in the NFL would be the CWS.

Winning the tourney gets you an automatic bids, and all those upsets today is why Carolina will be sitting home next week

FIFY

This is the Rant, if LSU only won one, the other would be viewed as more important.

Luckily this LSU team said frick you to the Rant

I think regular season because it shows which teams are the best over a longer period of time.we have seen mediocre teams win the sec tourney. Also, some sec coaches don't throw their best arms a bunch in the sec tourney.

Winning regular season is more important and more impressive.

Winning the tournament is just bitch slap across the face of every team that showed up to play that wkend. They all wanted that trophy.

Winning both is what the Tigers do.
