SEC rising again

You know folks around the country don't want to hear this - but the South, at least the SEC, is rising again in college football. Just look at the national recruiting rankings heading into signing day on Wednesday.

No fewer than six SEC schools - Florida, Tennessee, LSU, South Carolina, Auburn and Georgia - are hovering in various recruiting analysts' top 10 rankings.

"The perception is that more exciting football is being played in the SEC right now," recruiting analyst Tom Lemming told the Chicago Tribune. "And it’s common knowledge that it’s easier to get players who are borderline academically into the SEC than the Big Ten."

What does it mean? The rest of the nation should prepare for some chest thumping from the SEC hacks in the coming years.
