How ridiculous is this:

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ckBD412mrQ"]YouTube - Michael Wilbon puts the SEC and Alabama in their place[/ame]

He is an idiot, and that's being kind.

Either after Boise loses this weekend or after the season, this clip should be played again on the show to see if he is right. My guess is he won't be.

It will all be a non-issue if Virginia Tech takes care of business on Monday.

I'm pretty sure they will. No offense to the Va Tech fans on here, but let's be honest - if Va Tech beats them, how many SEC schools are able to beat them? 5 or 6?
 
Beat the BRAINS out of OU!?!? Was he watching a NCAA 07 game!?!? I didn't know overtime was beating the brains out of someone! They had to reach into there buttholes for that statue of liberty play!!! STHU Wilbon!

And who cares if we don't play tough teams on the road! WE reserve the right to take it easy on our OOC schedule! Let's see Boise play Arkansas, Auburn, LSU, FLORIDA, South Carolina, and (watch out for) Mississippi State. Sthu idiot. Oh! And beat Texas and Florida, Virginia Tech, LSU, and Auburn in the same season.


It's taking all my strength not to cuss. What a moron. I HATE HATE HATE Boise State fans.

Give Boise State a break... they beat Louisiana Tech last season for crying out loud!
 
I'm a terribly open-minded person. It's almost a curse; I've always tried to be a moderate person (at least in ideals; as a Bama fan I'm pretty much a zealot). Politically, or anything else, I've always been able to see both sides to any argument--even one I disagree with completely.

That being said, this is such a foolish thing for Wilbon to say. I'm not saying Boise State isn't going to be good, or anything else. But there is no way that if they had to compete week-in, week-out against SEC-caliber talent, they'd come out on top. It's too physical. And yes maybe we do think highly of our conference, but we should--it's the best conference. We also think the sun is pretty awesome, too.

I usually think talking heads are just trying to keep things interesting, but Wilbon sounded genuinely angry while he discussed this. To have a picture of CNS with two bags of money (was that graphic shown on the show?), implying that the schools are the ones raking it in--is ridiculous. Sure, the universities and the conference do well making money off football. But it's the NETWORKS, who Wilbon parrots for, who are the ones really making the money.

What a small-minded argument.

The image was not shown during the show I don't think. I'm pretty sure the person who posted the video used it.

That was not the graphic they used, this was a PTI soundclip that somebody had put pictures over.

What Boise State players -other than Ryan Clady- are in the NFL now?
 
Listening to the clip, after Wilbon said Boise could win the SEC (seemed to imply regularly) I couldn't listen anymore. I'm hoping that Bama meets Boise in the NC game, b/c you know CNS will have Utah on our player's minds the entire time and there won't be another bowl letdown b/c of perceived inferior competition.
 
I'm over Wilbon now and everyone else needs to move on as well. He's a bigot. He hates the south its Universities, Sports Teams and its people. That is who he is and who he always will be, you can't overcome that kind of blind hate it may just be how he was raised.

It's best to just move on and don't take anything he says personal, letting it get to you is what he wants. Best to ingore his ignorance and move along.

He is a Cubs fan after all, so he's jealous of winners (Southern football teams). ;)
 
Remember one thing about wilbon. To him, everything, I mean every little thing in sports is about race. He hates the south, he hates alabama, mississippi any state in the south. Nobody has the guts to say anything to him. He's a small, pathetic human being that should be pitied, but ignored.
