re: Someone Please Explain To Me

I'm probably in the middle on this one. I generally pull for SEC teams, probably out of a sense of regional pride and perhaps moreso because I am familiar with them. I watch SEC football much more than I watch other teams play, so when they play out of conference opponents, I tend to want them to win. I also like the SEC keeping up its rep as the toughest conference because I think that does help LSU with the coaches and Harris poll voters. But that's about the limit of my conference pride. I had a ball watching Bama get licked by Utah and I have been known to pull for Auburn's opponents, too (especially if they play Wisconsin; I like the Badgers).
