I'm an Irish fan so I get irritated at the constant conference p**sing contests. I have no dog in the fight but the SEC has 7 teams ranked in the top 19 of ESPN's power poll. Does ESPN hype the SEC due to their contract? Oh yeah. But I cannot disagree with those rankings much. Throw in the amount of Nattys won by different teams and they are hands down the best. Are they overhyped? Sometimes. Not debatable that over the last 15 or so years they are the dominant conference in the country and it's not even close.
