But I’d hope if anyone could it would be Andrew Luck.
He’s been there since November and had to change coaches half way through the off season.

He should have changed QBs half way through the game.

The only schools who aren’t capable of competing at a national level in the SEC are Vandy and Mississippi State.
Ole Miss: one game out of CFP
SC: barely missed playoffs
Missouri: could compete this year
Kentucky: could if they pushed NIL to football
Arkansas: if their big money people (Tyson, Walmart, etc) ever lock in they could dominate
If those teams were capable they’d be doing it
I mean it’s the SEC. The games they have to win are right there in front of them. Those teams have moments but they’re just moments while LSU, Bama, UGA actually compete consistently

Three of those teams were in CFP contention last year deep into the season and are expected to do so again this year.
They are in fact doing it.
Do they have the same resources as Bama or UGA? No.
Do they have enough resources to compete for championships given the right coach? Yes.

The same 6 teams have won the SEC since Kennedy was President.

That’s very true and is a convergence of elite coaching, unique roster pairings, organizational resources and a bit of luck.
But the fact that schools like A&M, TN and OM haven’t won a championship recently doesn’t mean it’s impossible for them to win, it’s just an indication that they’ve made bad hires and probably are somewhat incompetent from an AD standpoint.
Look at Arkansas under Petrino and Nutt. Both of them were in contention for championships and just couldn’t get over the hump due to bad breaks and scandals.

None of the California teams care anymore outside of a couple big money boosters at USC.
CFB is dead out there and only propped up on the west coast by Phil Knight at Oregon and residual momentum from the elite run at UW
Sounds like you're in the know and dialed in to the goings on out West. Pray, tell more.

Of the CA schools, only one had an average attendance north of 50k and the others ranked virtually last in the P4 for total and percent of capacity attendance despite all being in new conferences.
Even their own athletic departments are talking about how serious the attendance issues are out there.
Cal: 32,275 fans per game
UCLA: 49,162 fans per game
Stanford: 27737 fans per game
USC: 63,811 fans per game
It’s worth noting that USC had near sellouts against ND, Nebraska and Penn State which is impressive but only had 30k people there for their game against Rutgers so there are questions as to whether their fans only show up for big games or if opposing fans were packing their stadium in their first season in the B10, TBD.

What are the questions? We all know how the L.A. market is. It’s a big area but there’s a lot of sports competition for the dollars…

The question is if their 70k average is going to drop to 50k when they don’t have ND, PSU and NU fans to prop them up.
