Look - is there even an argument at this point? Many of those that did not grow up in the south seem to want to lambast the “SEC love fest” heard on our morning show. I say the SEC is merely receiving it’s just due as far and away the best league in college football.

There are now four SEC teams above ANYBODY in the All Cupcakes Conference, and six, or half of the SEC, are above everyone but the Yellowjackets. As any chef will tell you, the proof is in the puddin’.

I harken back to analogies I used before the season began, and add a new one to the mix;

- The NFL is to the SEC what the SEC is to college football.

- The SEC is to college football what the NFL is to any and all other professional football leagues.

- (New) The SEC is to the ACC in football what the ACC is to the SEC in basketball.

Hope everyone had a nice holiday weekend, and on to game week of the biggest college football game in the Emerald Coast’s history - #1 and undefeated Florida vs. #2 and undefeated Alabama in the championship for the conference that is the crown jewel of college football!

This should be fun!
