9 2012 SEC Football Page 11 Week 1 SEC FOOTBALL ( )... SECOND TO NONE During the last six years ( ), Southeastern Conference football has experienced success that is unparalleled in its football history and, perhaps, in the college football history. During this tenure, the SEC s achievements have been demonstrated by: Triumphs in BCS bowl games, including the BCS National Championship Game Non-conference success in regular season and bowl games Defeating highly-ranked non-conference teams Success in the polls and rankings Individual awards and All-America Teams Academic and Community Service Standouts Continued accomplishments of former SEC student-athletes in the NFL SEC IN THE BCS The SEC has won six consecutive national championships, eight BCS National Championships and 22 overall national titles (AP, BCS, FWAA, coaches poll). Alabama claimed the 2011 BCS National Championship with a 21-0 win over LSU in New Orleans on Jan. 9. Four different SEC schools have won the BCS National Championship since 2006 (Auburn, 2010; Alabama, 2009 and 2011; Florida, 2006 and 2008; LSU, 2007). Tennessee (1998) and LSU (2004) have also won the BCS crown. The Big 12 (Texas and Oklahoma) and the ACC (Miami and Florida State) have each had two schools win titles since Since 2006, more than half of the slots in the BCS National Championship Game have been taken by SEC teams (7 of 12). The Big Ten and the Big 12 have two each and the Pac-10 has one. No other conference has won a BCS National Championship Game since Texas defeated Southern California, 41-38, in the Rose Bowl following the 2005 regular season. The SEC has won the last six. An SEC team has led or tied for the lead at the end of 20 of the last 24 quarters of BCS National Championship Game play. Since 2006, an SEC team has been ranked first in the weekly BCS standings in 26 of the 48 weeks, with four different teams holding the top spot. Florida was first for seven weeks, Alabama for six weeks, Auburn for three and LSU for 10 weeks, including all eight polls of this season. The Big Ten has held the top spot for 13 weeks (all Ohio State), the Big 12 for five weeks (Texas and Oklahoma twice, Missouri once) and the Pac-10 four weeks (all Oregon). The SEC has had more teams ranked in the BCS standings for the most times than any other conference since The league has had 11 of its 12 teams ranked at one time or another since 2006 for a total of 238 times. The SEC breakdown: LSU (45), Alabama (35), Florida (33), Auburn (29), Georgia (23), Arkansas (23), South Carolina (21), Tennessee (14), Mississippi State (8), Kentucky (4) and Ole Miss (3). Since 2006, the SEC has posted a 9-3 record in BCS bowl games, more wins and a higher winning percentage (.750) than any other conference. The win total equals that of the next two highest conferences. Here are the BCS bowl records of all conferences since 2006: SEC Mountain West WAC Pac Big East Big Big Ten ACC Independents Three of the top nine defensive performanes in BCS history have been registered by SEC teams, more than any other conference. Alabama s shutout of LSU in the 2012 BCS National Championship Game was the first shutout in BCS history. Georgia defeated Hawaii, 41-10, in the 2008 Sugar Bowl, and Florida defeated Syracuse, 31-10, in the 1999 Orange Bowl - both are tied for 7th in lowest point total allowed in a BCS game. SEC IN OVERALL BOWL GAMES Since 2006, the SEC has accrued more bowl wins (36) and appearances (55) than any other conference. The conference s.655 bowl winning percentage is third behind the Big East (23-10,.697) and Mountain West (20-9,.690) during that time.

Initiatives include study abroad programs and joint purchasing agreements for library holdings. The SEC and its corporate partners host youth clinics each year in conjunction with several conference events, including the football championship game, the men s and women s basketball tournaments and the baseball tournament. These clinics provide children from host cities the opportunity to receive instruction from SEC and other area coaches. In 1992, the SEC became the first conference in the nation to assemble a Student-Athlete Advisory Committee. Two representatives from each of the SEC member schools are selected to serve on the committee, which meets twice a year to discuss issues of concern to the student-athlete. For the fifth year, the SEC SAAC has coordinated the Together We CAN food drive at all 12 SEC institutions. During a two-week period in September, at athletic events on campus, student-athletes seek donations for food that will be delivered to local food banks and area charities. In 2011, the food drive garnered 121,500 pounds of food and donations. The SEC conducts a New Coaches Orientation three times per year, which supplements institutional orientation programs and enhances the professional development of coaches. Topics of discussion range from the role of the SEC and NCAA to the role of athletics in higher education. The SEC has created an annual Sportsmanship Award that will be awarded to one male and one female student-athlete during the academic year. Voted on by the league s athletics directors, the award honors student-athletes who, through their actions in the competitive arena of intercollegiate athletics, have demonstrated one or more of the ideals of sportsmanship, including fairness, civility, honesty, unselfishness, respect and responsibility. This year s recipients were Arkansas tennis player Matt Walters, Florida tennis player Joanna Mather and Georgia soccer player Laura Eddy.
