Return of the Pac? Six Pac-12 teams now ranked

[JonLP24]

California and Arizona State have moved into the AP Top 25 college football poll to give the Pac-12 six ranked teams, the most for the conference in almost four years.

A weekend filled with blowouts left the top half of the AP media poll presented by Regions Bank mostly unchanged.

Clemson remains No. 1, with 57 of the 62 first-place votes, as the top nine held their spots Sunday. Alabama was No. 2, receiving five first-place votes, followed by Georgia, LSU, Oklahoma, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Auburn and Florida.

The ninth-ranked Gators were the only top-10 team to play a competitive game. The others won by a combined 428-97.

1. The SEC has six teams ranked in the Top 25, and they are ranked higher than the Pac-12.

For a second straight week, the Southeastern Conference has three top-five teams and half of the top 10.

SEC -- 6 (Nos. 2, 3, 4, 8, 9, 17)

Pac-12 -- 6 (Nos. 10, 16, 19, 22, 23, 24)

3. academically speaking, was is the ranking of the SEC

against other NCAA Division 1 schools?

Most of the players in these programs are not going to be offered a pro playing career.

4. I don't know the SEC's academic ranking.

I'm not a fan of the SEC.

2. Go PAC-12. Most of the early season "opponents" of the top programs offer so...

little resistance it should be against the law to schedule them. I mean scores of 66-12 and 48-6 should embarrass the top schools enough for them to schedule tougher contest but no, that will never happen as if you lose a game early of don't beat tomato can schools badly enough or heaven forbid lose, you slide in and maybe out of the rankings and your chances of going to the post-season playoffs are shot instantly.

I started to write your chances of a bowl game also go down but they don't nowadays as 6-5 teams even get in the hundreds of bowls out there now.
