Brought to you courtesy of the Furman thread I was just reading.
The SLC and OVC have taken so much flack over the years for conference strength or lack there of, I figured it was only fair to include the SoCon as they too have a serious lack of quality wins other than beating each other.
As JSUSoutherner pointed out, here are the SoCon OOC wins this year:
UTM
Gardner-Webb
Gardner-Webb
Jacksonville
Tennessee Tech
Gardner-Webb
The SLC at least has Nicholl's win over Kansas. McNeese's win @ 2-7 UNC might be better than any the SoCon has.
At what point should you stop using the parity, cannibalize, beats each other up in conference arguments to justify at-larges?
I'll see your 6-4 Furman or 8-3 JSU and raise you a 9-2 McNeese that got snubbed last year.
Make the argument that any of these three conferences truly deserve more than the AQ this season.
(And yes, I recognize we have some games left)
