The SEC generates a lot of buzz nationally, from haters attempting to troll the best conference in college football to lovers praising everyone from Commissioner Mike Slive to Nick Saban and the league’s cast of characters.
Between the play on the field, the press conferences of Les Miles and Steve Spurrier and the offseason shirtless antics of Bret Bielema, it’s a very media-friendly conference when you think about it.
Each week, we’ll make the rounds nationally to see what fans, analysts and other experts are saying about the SEC. Let’s go.
I’m calling it. Arkansas is the best SEC Team to ever lose 17 straight Conference games. Pretty Amazing. #SEC #ARKANSAS

For SEC football, its been “go big or go home”…as evidenced by winning seven of the last eight national championships.

@CapCareyWDT That’s your opinion. Don’t be surprised when two of the College Football Playoff teams are from the Southeastern Conference.

When the announcer states “best games from the best conference” talking about the SEC Saturday games, it makes me want to puke. #rude

The SEC is the best conference in America but yet we have the worst refs. That needs to change.
