Who had more football titles, the teams in the SEC or the teams in the Big 12???? Well, after analyzing the data for the past hour, and analyzing every poll every which way, there is no doubt about it now. I counted each single poll individually (AP, the National Football Foundation and College Football Hall of Fame, the United Press, the Football Writers Polls and the USA Today/ESPN) and every poll gives more championships to the Big 12 than the SEC. Since college football is all about rivalries and drinking, Eric and I will be hosting a "The SEC is definitely better than the BIG 12 happy hour" which will be paid for by Brian "The SEC is definitely better than the BIG 12" Hoskins.

Nine SEC teams are going to bowls, an unprecedented number of bowl-bound teams from a single conference in NCAA history.
