Come On Down

A question for you. Why would a player want to play for anyone other than a SEC school? To win a national championship? Thats getting harder to do if you don’t play in the SEC.

1998: – Tennessee
1999: – Florida St.
2000: – Oklahoma
2001: – Miami
2002: – Ohio St. (won on a blown call)
2003: – LSU
2004: – USC (Auburn was undefeated and didn’t play)
2005: – Texas
2006: – Florida
2007: – LSU
2008: – Florida
2009: – Alabama

To get drafted? The SEC leads in that also department also as the draft results this year show.

1. SEC – 49
2. Big Ten – 34
3. ACC – 31
4. Big 12 – 30
5. Pac-10 – 28
6. Big East – 18
7: MWC – 13

The SEC has now led or tied for the most selections in the NFL Draft for 11 of the last 13 seasons and the last four drafts and every team in the SEC had someone drafted. Alabama (7), Arkansas (1), Auburn (2), Florida (9), Georgia (5), Kentucky (3), LSU (6), Ole Miss (4), Mississippi State (2), South Carolina (2), Tennessee (6), Vanderbilt (2).

Because you love your state school? Ok this one I can understand I mean who wouldn’t want to play for Montana St. rather than Tennessee.

So if your a young man wanting to play great football and are being offered by a school like USC, Florida St. or Penn St. come on down and play for Kentucky in the SEC there isn’t anything like it.
