How about some info to back up your pick.
For me the SEC because: #2 Louisiana, #7 Tennesee, #11 GA, #17 Auburn.
That's a lot of really good teams having to play each other. Also you can't discount having to play Eli Manning, probably the #1 draft pick next year...

the big 10 has five ranked teams also. not to mention, last year, we had the best bowl record, best winning percentage, most ranked teams, etc. we'll see what happens this year.
1) SEC
2) Big 10
3) Big 12
4) Pac-10
5) (TIE) Big East/ACC
6) MAC

LSU, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, Arkansas, Ole Miss, Alabama, Auburn. Gotta be SEC.
Alabama?!? They had a losing record. Arkansas and Auburn aren't even ranked. Tennesee is overrated. They beat an overrated Miami team...whoopdeedo. LSU and Georgia are good. After that, it drops down quite a ways.
Of course, if some of you were as knowledgable about college football as you claim to be, you'd realize rankings hold little value on how good a team is.

Arkansas kicked Texas's overrated ass
SEC, no doubt.
You are right...Alabama does suck, their wins were against South Florida, Kentucky, Southern Miss, and Miss St...how impressive is that.
LSU, Tennessee, Auburn, Arkansas, Georgia were all ranked in the top 10 at some point in the season. And you can't forget Ole Miss and Florida. You've got to realize that all these teams have to play each other plus tough out of conference games like Oklahoma, USC, and Miami. The SEC is by far the toughest conference to win on the road. There is no one in the nation that wants to play at LSU on Saturday night.
I don't think there is anyway to compare the SEC to other conferences this season. They are on a different level.

THAT, is at least one statistic that the SEC is surely leading in. I mean a game that is billed as the Largest Cockatil Party? Actually describing a big game in terms of what the fans do not the teams playing!
Go Dawgs!
Fcuk LSU, I hope they win the National Championship so we can at least say that 60% of our losses were to the #1 team...

You're not kiddin...not to mention you guys think you have a rivalry with every other team in the conference...LSU hates everybody like I hate Alabama.
SEC by far!
The SEC?? What is that...I gotta go with the Big 10.
They're sending 8 teams to bowl games (that ties them with the Big 12 which is another strong conference) 5 of the 11 teams were ranked in the top 10 at one point or another (Michigan, Ohio State, Michigan State, Iowa & Purdue) and another two (Minnesota and Wisconsin) were in the top 15.
That's just awesome.

But here in the SEC we play footbawl. I remember when GA played Wisconsin in a bowl during Ron Daynes last year. All the announcers were all over Dayens jock talking up how incredible he was and UGA would struggle with him. He was shutdown quicker 'en greased **** out a ducks ass. That's just one of those you-femisms we like to use.

Tampa Stadium became a sea of red as the 11th ranked Bulldogs squared-off against the youthful Badgers and their powerhouse running back Ron Dayne. The game was a classic test of size vs speed.
Surprisingly a Bulldog back stole the show as Georgia took control of the game early compiling 123 rushing yards in the first quarter en route to a 12-0 lead. Georgia RB Robert Edwards notched 68 yards and two TDs in the period.
The young Badger line, which started five freshman, could not match the quickness of the Bulldog defense as Dayne was repeatedly hit in the backfield before he could get any forward momentum. He would finish with just 36 yards on 14 carries.
Meanwhile, Georgia quarterback Mike Bobo was almost perfect on the day and would set an NCAA record for consecutive pass completions in a game with 19 straight. His favorite target was Hines Ward who would make 12 catches for 122 yards.
The Bulldogs would prevail 33-6 with Bobo taking home the MVP award and Edwards finishing with 110 yards. The Badgers matured however and would go on to win the Big Ten and the Rose Bowl the next year. Dayne would go on to set an NCAA career rushing record and win the Heisman Trophy.

Recognize any names in there? Dayne is jsut about to be demoted to towel boy, Robert Edwards would have been great but blew his knee at the pro bowl (He made the Pro Bowl, and that was where his career nearly ended in a 4-on-4 beach flag-football game), and we all know who Hines Ward is, right?

um, hello? did you read my post? i used acutual stats to prove that THE BIG TEN has the most ranked teams last year. they also won the most bowl games last year. so what are you talking about? do any of you SEC fools have any proof to back up what you are saying?
look here if you don't believe me:
http://www.angelfire.com/sports/conferenceratings/
you guys talking SEC crap have no proof whatsoever!
That.....uh....that's pretty definitive. 
Big Ten Rules!
Big Ten Rules!
I voted for Big 10, that's just because I'm an IU fan, but SEC is very strong.
um, hello? You haven't seen us mention that this year the SEC is on a totally different level than the other conferences. I guess this is gonna have to come down to the bowl match ups this year.
Georgia - Purdue
Florida - Iowa
Auburn - Wisconsin
I see Georgia and Auburn winning, but Florida may have trouble with a freshmen QB in a bowl situation.

how are you on a totally different level? please explain, with something other than your hype. i like numbers, facts, and stats.
Yes we've seen you "mention" the sec is on a different level. How? Back it up with some proof. And stop using the georgia/wisc bowl game that happened years ago. That does nothing for you this year.
The sec never has the most ranked teams. That's usually the big 12. The sec never wins the most bowl games. That would be the big 10 or big 12. Try using actual facts to back it up instead of your feelings.
