The SEC is better the same way my mom's cooking is better

The PAC10 has won 10 of it's 16 games against the SEC during this BCS era. USC alone has crushed every SEC team it has faced. So why does the perception of the PAC10 being soft and SEC being all mighty still exist? It's like watching Muhammad Ali knock out George Foreman and Joe Frazier then saying Ali is weak. Well as they say, "it is what it is." Sadly, most will always perceive the SEC to be better than the PAC10, and I can tell you exactly why that is with the following statement.

My mom's cooking is better than yours.

It really doesn't matter if everyone disagrees with you. In your mind, your mom's cooking will always taste better. That's just how it's been since you were little. You grew up with your mamas cooking and you're so accustomed to that flavor that you can have Emeril or that hot Italian girl Giada feeding you better food, but you'll still refuse to admit that it's better than your moms.

That's just how it is when people are thinking with their hearts. You're trying to change their minds, but that's not where the thinking process is occurring. So you can show them the scores all you want. You'll never change their mind. So it's really an endless argument. Maybe if someone in the PAC10 other than USC starts whooping these SEC teams on a CONSISTENT basis. Wait, that won't be enough.

SEC is football country. The fans there love their football the same way mama's boys love their mommies' cooking. Here in PAC10 country, we have other interests. It's called LIFE. That's something they don't have out there. Out there they eat, breathe football.

So I'm not going to pay attention to this whole thing about them having better athletes. That doesn't always equate to better teams. If it did, USC which recruits the best each year would've won the championship 5 years in a row. It's about how each of those individual talents can gel in to making a great team. So lately according to the scoreboard the PAC10 teams have been beating up the SEC teams.

I guess that's what I'll just do, and you should all just do the same. Let's just look at the scores. Look at pure data. Let's go by facts because there is no winning the battle of public opinion. The SEC will always be "better" than the PAC 10, and my Mama's cooking will always be better than your mom's!
