The SEC is an odd conference -- where they think that it's all for one and all for one....they are pretty much the only conference where most of the schools seem to root for each other to win NCs and the like.
I'm in the heart of Big 10 territory (apparently counting isn't a strength of the B10) -- and in no way would a real IU fan root for Purdue.....Ohio St for Michigan and so on. A fan of tOSU wants Michigan to go 0-12 every year.....not to win a national title.
