Vaunted SEC finishes bowl season with a 5-7 record while BIG12 is 5-2. BIG12 is 3-0 this bowl season over SEC. Over the last two seasons SEC is 12-9 while BIG12 is 10-2. Is the SEC over rated? It is for sure very top heavy. OU will be fine and will be fighting for titles in the SEC. Oh, and Riley's PAC12 is 0-7 the last two years.
The SEC is a top-heavy conference with Alabama and Georgia representing the "big toes" of an overrated conference. But I'm not sure one can claim there's a stronger conference, or that the SEC is a weak conference based on the SEC's 5-7 bowl record. for one season.
So beating an SEC team that is not Alabama or Georgia may not be as meaningful as SEC haters believe.
LSU was without a ton of players (with a WR playing QB) and from what I read 2 days ago, it had all of 38 players.....similar to Florida playing without 15 key players vs OU last year. (This is why ATM cancelled its appearance with Wake Forest: not because it "feared" losing to a 10-3 Wake Forest team, but because it "feared" losing to ANY team.)
But I liked Kansas State beating LSU, under any circumstances.
