...thanks to the numerous sub-fbs or division ii teams that they play.
Yes, the Sucker Eastcoast Conference is alive and well thanks to Bogus

Er, seeing as how you're only allowed to count one FCS school (and
even at that, only schools that give out at least the equivalent of
113.4 full scholarships over the past two years (combined)), and no
non-Division I schools, each year, towards the 6 wins needed (7, if
the schools are below the number of "automatic" SEC bowl berths,
including the two BCS berths they'll almost certainly get), I don't
see how your scheduling theory holds up.

Also, it can't be more than 10, as Mississippi State and Vanderbilt
can't possibly get six wins. Since the SEC has eight contracts (and
again assuming that the SEC gets two BCS bids), all 10 teams need only
6-6 records.

Not that they don't schedule "FBS Light" schools, but who doesn't
every now and then?

Here are the SEC standings of the 10 bowl-eligible teams against FBS
teams (as of Friday morning 11/27), with sub-FBS opponents (all of
which are FCS - no D2 or D3 schools in the bunch) in parentheses:
Florida - 10-0 (Charleston Southern)
Alabama - 10-0 (Chattanooga)
LSU - 8-3
Mississippi - 6-3 (SE Louisiana, Northern Arizona)
Kentucky - 6-4 (Eastern Kentucky)
Arkansas - 6-4 (Missouri State)
Auburn - 6-4 (Furman)
Tennessee - 6-5
South Carolina - 6-5
Georgia - 5-5 (Tennessee Tech)

For comparison, here are the Pac-10 standings for bowl-eligible teams
against FBS teams (again, as of Friday morning 11/27):
Oregon - 9-2
Oregon State - 7-3 (Portaland State)
Cal - 7-3 (Eastern Washington)
USC - 7-3
Stanford - 7-4
UCLA - 6-5
Arizona - 5-4 (Northern Arizona)

If I pester Jaros about reading the NCAA bylaws, then I pretty much
have to pester you about the same thing. (In your case, Bylaw
30.9.2.)

Fact is, the SEC is superior to all other conferences.

The last three titles, four of the last five.
