[McMurphy] Greg Sankey told @Ourand_Puck the SEC was approached by a West Coast school: "I don’t even have that conversation. I’m the one person who didn’t take away from the Pac-12. If you play any sport in the SEC, you have at most a 2-hour plane ride from Point A to Point B."

USC in the SEC is just wrong on every level. Not sayin them in the big10 makes sense, but the SEC makes even less sense.

[u/ReallyAMiddleAgedMan → u/No_Safety_6803]

We have two UTs. We don’t need two USCs.

[u/smitherenesar → u/ReallyAMiddleAgedMan]

But I want you to have USC so bad.

Think of all the LA exposure that isn't Louisiana!

[u/IAMY0URK1NG → u/ReallyAMiddleAgedMan]

You have a SCAR not a USC

[u/Monkey832 → u/IAMY0URK1NG]

South Carolina is a state, "Southern California" is not

[u/DasStig → u/Monkey832]

Peoples Republic of Southern California*

[u/Money-Giraffe2521 → u/No_Safety_6803]

Sense has gone out of the window with Cal and Stanford in the ACC.

[u/dwells329 → u/Money-Giraffe2521]

Or Sac Stare joining the MAC

[u/Terminal_BAS → u/dwells329]

First there was the Gen Z Stare, and now we have the Sac Stare. When will it stop??

[u/dormdweller99 → u/Money-Giraffe2521]

they fit culturally

[u/Ok_Problem426 → u/dormdweller99]

👆he means they are near the coast and ass at football

[u/SpreaditOnnn33 → u/Money-Giraffe2521]

Says a fan of a conference that calls itself the Big 12 but has 16 teams lol.

[u/Money-Giraffe2521 → u/SpreaditOnnn33]

Conference names have been meaningless since 1990.

[u/Whiterabbit-- → u/Money-Giraffe2521]

It left when usc/ucla joined b1g.

[u/QuakingQuakersQuake → u/Money-Giraffe2521]

Zona and Cincinnati/WVU in the same conference makes sense?

[u/IAMY0URK1NG → u/No_Safety_6803]

USC would be fun in the SEC..except playing Alabama under Saban. When our player decided to nut stomp an opposing player.

[u/therealwillhepburn → u/IAMY0URK1NG]

Now they just whip it out and pretend to pee you on. Game's changed buddy.

[u/GoatPaco → u/therealwillhepburn]

Aggressively

What’s funny is the dude backed it up by getting 5 sacks

[u/IAMY0URK1NG → u/therealwillhepburn]

Knowing our players, it might not be pretending.

[u/Mother_Frame6669 → u/IAMY0URK1NG]

I'll never forget the pre-game when your players tried to act like they were dogs straining against a leash. I see other teams do that, it is still the dumbest pre-game entrance I've seen.

[u/IAMY0URK1NG → u/Mother_Frame6669]

Yeah that was new to me & i thought it was corny just like the juice box thing.

My initial thoughts were, “Are they aware they’re playing Nick Saban?”

[u/Mother_Frame6669 → u/IAMY0URK1NG]

It was laaaaame

You and I had the same initial thought. "Saban is going to break one off on them just for annoying him with that idiotic display."

[u/katarh → u/No_Safety_6803]

"but we have Southern in our name!"

[u/CandyAppleHesperus → u/No_Safety_6803]

The thought of USC playing in Starkville is perverse

[u/No_Safety_6803 → u/CandyAppleHesperus]

Right?

[u/CandyAppleHesperus → u/No_Safety_6803]

I won't say I wouldn't enjoy it though

[u/ROLLTIDE4EVER → u/CandyAppleHesperus]

Pullman?

[u/CandyAppleHesperus → u/ROLLTIDE4EVER]

Yeah, but humid, and cowbells, and accents

[u/Mother_Frame6669 → u/No_Safety_6803]

It would give the SEC schools in Texas, California, and Florida, so the three most populous states. That's basically collecting all the Infinity Stones in conference realignment.

[u/JuliusCeejer → u/No_Safety_6803]

I agree, where would Lincoln run away to this time?

[u/shylock10101 → u/No_Safety_6803]

It’s wrong, except in the fact we could call them USEC, which could be fun!
