Update

Well hello...its been a while. You miss me? Probably not but hey I don't blame ya. But i'm back...sort of.  Here lies the biggest issue with doing a sports blog...the offseason is hard. Gotta brainstorm and come with with shit and some things sound good then you go ewww. my problem not yours, but I do think I have something so lets share it.

Sidenote, I hope to get the podcast going soon, just not sure if I want to mirror what I write on here or stick to topics that would be easier to yap about for 20 minutes instead of typing.

So what I have planned over the next few weeks is my rankings of the conferences, talking about one at a time from the one I believe is the weakest to the one I feel is best, trying to get two per week though if I'm going good I'll try for three. The format of these breakdowns will go as follows:

  1. Placement reasoning
  2. 2017 Recap
  3. Playoff/National Championship contenders
  4. Teams to add/subtract
  5. Best/Worse
    • Stadium
    • Fan Base
    • Tradition
    • Uniforms
  6. 2018 Outlook
I might add something else to that, especially that best/worst section but we shall see.

I do have a few other topics of discussion planned, some I really think are outside of the general conversation, but I've been debating on whether or not to have them here, as the first couple of podcast episodes or do both.  Pretty sure how things go with the conference rundown will determine how I go about things with that. Anyways, that's all I got for now. I hope to get the first conference out of the way by the end of the week. And a hint of what's to come...its one of the HBU conferences. Alright lets get to work

Conference Rundown #13 Southwestern Athletic Conference

Let me just start off by saying the SWAC might be the best of the abbreviated conferences when you say it. It just comes off as something cool and makes you puff out your chest a little when you say it. Ok enough being weird...we start off with a conference who, if your looking strictly at attendance numbers you would think it was a great conference, but alas the reality is that SWAC is at the bottom of the totem pole and for good reason. And it sucks that's its at this level because of all the history, tradition, the alumni but the product that is produced year after year is just bad. Placement Reasoning What you will see with a lot of the lower ranked conferences is that outside of the conference, most of the teams can't hang with the others. The SWAC is the guiltiest of the lot. Outside of Grambling, the SWAC doesn't have a lot in terms of depth and teams who can go out of conference and take down even a small fry from say the Southland or NEC. They were one of three...
