All I want is a little SEC...PLEASE!

So I have moved from Arkansas to Utah and now have an hour commute each way every day.  Needless to say I spend an two hours listening to sports talk radio.  I understand that I live in Utah & BYU country and I am okay with that.  What I am not okay with is that all I have heard about in the well over 100 hours of radio coverage is only one mention of the SEC.  That was the great conference divide and was a side note about how Texas A&M might go to the SEC.  I get it we are focused on the Mountain West & now the PAC-12, but seriously the national champs are still in the SEC along with about 10 other great teams (sorry Vandy).

I just do not understand how a sports talk show can talk about Jake Heap, BYU's freshman quarterback, and whether he will start or not for 12 hours a day.  I get it already he is supposed to be good.  The SEC has a couple good quarterbacks too & they aren't freshman.  The SEC also has a Heisman Trophy Winner.  Don't worry he has also NOT BEEN MENTIONED.  However, on the brink of going insane I found something great.  Sports Talk with Bo Mattingly is on the WEB.  I listened.  I laughed.  I cried.  It was a good day.  Today I will listen to Bo and the crew and try and find a little serenity in this hectic world.  Sporst Talk covers the University of Arkansas, the SEC, and other national stories (imagine that).  If anyone else is stranded starving for SEC football coverage you can catch it here.  The show airs live from 1-4 PM CT.  Thanks Bo for keeping us stranded Hog fans alive.    

College Conference Realignment

The Big Ten is rumored to have offered membership in the conference to Nebraska, Missouri, Rutgers, and Notre Dame. 
This got us thinking if they all accepted what would this do to the rest of the conferences.  Below is our possibilities of what would happen within about 2-3 years if the conference realingment snowball starts rolling. 

Pac-10 would add:
Colorado
Utah

SEC would add:
Oklahoma
Texas
Texas A&M
Oklahoma State

Big 12 would add:
TCU
BYU
UNLV
Boise State
Houston
Memphis or Tulsa or possibly Fresno State.  If they added all 3 they could be the Big 14.

WAC & what is left of the Mountain West would basically merge.  Some teams like Louisiana Tech may fill possible voids in Conference USA. 

This is just our thoughts let us know what you think.  It is a fun conversation anyway!

College Baseball

Spring is here and that means College Baseball is too.  College Baseball does not get enough love so we are going to try and give what it deserves.  The SEC has a great document they post every week, that shows all four of the major polls on one page.  The bold schools are SEC schools, but the poll shows everyone. 

Arizona State tops three out of four polls while Virginia leads the Baseball America Poll.  Baseball America is a little different in that it puts more emphasis on who will be the national champion rather than who is the best right now.

The SEC is definitely the deepest conference with as many as 8 ranked teams in one poll and no fewer than 6 in all polls.  The ACC is not far behind with 5 ranked teams in each poll lead by Virginia and Georgia Tech who are both in the top 5 in both Polls. 

There is still a lot to play as conference play is just getting under way. If you want to check out a great blog dedicated to College Basball go to The College Baseball Blog.  Tell them the Four6Three sent ya.
