Geaux Tahel,

I know this is bitter for you to except:
Conference to Conference results BCS era till 2009
As for us, showing us rankings(human votes) means jack shite to us. The link above shows actual play on the field results.

Conveniently that leaves off bowl games... You can claim that victory over UT all you want, but somehow I think you'd easily trade that for a win against AU.

Remind me again why any SEC team has to schedule tougher OOC teams? 240-157 nuff said?

This is the biggest fail in logic. A Conference plays more D-2 and other Cupcakes and he uses that to brag as if that is a good thing. Actually missing out on harder teams shows one has a fear of risk of loosing more. If you play more top teams in the country that = a higher risk of loosing. Playing very weak teams gives a greater chance of winning. This is not rocket science.

Rankings are based off votes, human votes. There is human bias in that. Even the computers are linked to rankings. We in the West all believe there is much East Coast Bias. Probably because they do not get to view much PAC football, maybe because our games are on too late for people out East. Rankings mean nothing to us as they are only votes, not actual play on the field results. And the play on the field results show in the BCS era up to currently, we have the highest percentage of wins vs other AQ schools. The SEC is a close second. And head to head, in the BCS era the PAC has beat the SEC more. And on top of it, the SEC schedules the weakest and the PAC the hardest. If you cant connect dots and see how crappy teams like Kentucky and others from the SEC make it to bowl games, you need a brain transplant. And if you cannot count and know that 1 extra in Conference game per PAC school Auto = 5 extra losses to the whole PAC, you need a logic check. And if you do not know their always has been tons of parity in the PAC that = you have not watched much PAC games on TV. Your problem, not mine.

As far as playing the hardest OOC schedules its simple. We are not BSU who plays in the WAC and needs to schedule 1 or 2 tough games. The PAC, even before the BCS and even before strength of scheduling ALWAYS played a very hard OOC schedule. And when USC was the most dominant team in College Football did you ever see them schedule light? Nope! The PAC has always scheduled hard and hopefully will always continue to do it.

Besides UO, if the PAC scheduled the level of cupcakes that the SEC did(the worst in CF) then we would not fill our stands as Football out West is not God over here. We would loose TONS of money in ticket sales(except UO who has sold out for I do not know how many yeas now- but awefull many). And all the PAC schools would loose out on much TV money from playing those big games. And now with this new TV deal this makes us the richest. But with this new deal it ends schools getting to keep 60 percent of TV money. Thus, one top reason why we were always the top Conference for scheduling was for the money in both tickets and TV. Football is not a God over here though. That fact however does not mean necessarily our teams are terrible though. More pro football players have come from California then any other state. And most of the PAC draws from there. The talent is here, just not the support from fans for schools the SEC has. There is just too much beauty and competitions for time to makes ones life revolved around Football over here.

However, where do you even think the word "Bowl" came from? It came from the PAC. We invented it as we invited Big Ten teams to play us in SoCal- at their bowl like stadium. We were the first bowl game putz. Everyone in the country copied us. And our bowl game back in the day was far more popular and superior then any NFL super-bowl. (see the word "bowl" again). Don't act and talk like we have never seen football over here. And don't act and talk like Oregon just showed up to the football world just yesterday and is nothing more then a girls junior high team. You will just make a arse of yourself such as you are.
