Cignetti in the SEC?

[Lawrence Wright]

Florida, Miss St., Kentucky and Arkansas would be 12-0 in the B10 and win every game by 55.

Beating 6-loss Penn State on the road, not a big win.

Beating 7-loss UF at home after a failed Hail Mary attempt, huge statement win.

Beating 5-loss UF at home in OT two years later, an even larger huge gigantic statement win because 5 losses in the SEC is like going undefeated in the AFC North.

In conclusion, Cignetti sucks.

The SEC is superior to every other conference and it's not even close, top to bottom.

Tennessee is part of the reason the SEC dominates the other conference, Tennessee would go 11-1 against Indiana's schedule at worst
and Tennessee absolutely owns both the Big Ten and the ACC

Heupel has road issues - he would lose at Oregon and likely would drop the game at Iowa or at Penn St.

We'd go 10-2 at best with their schedule, which still would likely get you in the CFP.

Don't forget,

Beating a 10 win Kentucky team at Kroger? HUGE win.

Beating top 5 ranked Oregon in Autzen? Meh.

Here's how I see it:

Ryan Day, to use one example, took a well-maintained Ferrari, did some important but relatively minor work (maybe new brakes, changed a couple suspension components, different air intake) and went and won a cup with it.

Josh Heupel took an old Mustang that was legendary back in the day but had been dry rotting in somebody's barn for years, tore the engine down completely, rebuilt the transmission, did a bunch of body work, you name it, and managed to place in a few big races.

Cignetti found a station wagon in an Indiana corn field and said, "hey, why not?" did some kind of mad science with it, and somehow qualified for the Daytona 500.

What Day and Heupel have done is impressive; what Cignetti is doing is miraculous.
