In a weak year of college football, they have the most balance. But like I said, rarely do they play anyone in their non-conference schedules. LSU is having a good run, but they just became a force. Tennessee is a down program. Georgia is picked high, but rarely reaches its potential. Alabama is not very good. Auburn has been solid. Florida too. They have good teams, but I don't see the SEC as being superior to anyone else.
Offensively, yes, but they don't play defense.
