Sure.. look at this season. The SEC as a whole has beaten like what... 4 teams total OOC? What is that supposed to prove? Domination lists 6 "marquis" wins the SEC can claim for '07.

Of those, 3 have winning records. Only one, Virginia Tech, has any shot at all of a BCS game this year. Wow. kudos.

As for the best conference this year? I'd probably give that honor to the Pac-10 for doing better than any other conference against out of conference BCS teams.

We'll see how the bowls shake out, but to suggest that no other league is close to the SEC isn't supported by the w/l records depending on what you want to look at, or at least the results of such an inquiry would be inconclusive.
