Glad you would like to go 6-6 as we would rarely win that many games in

the SEC and 3 of those would be OC cupcakes. Our fans ( thankfully) are not SEC ready ( whatever that means )I live among SEC fans and they are the most obnoxious, delusional win at all cost, just plain crazy fans you can imagine and then some. Just like being in the ACC was supposed to improve our basketball recruiting and we would be in the hunt for ACC championships nearly every year. Our recruiting would probably improve some but not nearly enough to make up for the jump in competition every week. We would finish in front of Vandy and maybe MSU in a good year. We could not cheat enough to ever be in contention for championships consistently in ANY sport. NO THANKS.

Dead set against such a move for dozens of reasons

The academic argument is academic imo...

Frankly we would also fit in academically in the SEC

Yes, based on $$$ only. Not necessarily happier to be "in SEC", but happier

6-6 in the SEC equates to 7-5 in the B1X and probably 8-4 in the ACC.

I see this sentiment a lot, but I'm not convinced this would be the reality
