Perhaps they are all bad and some are just worse than others. If that's the case then I could prefer to be this guy.

I would say the opposite. Win at all costs seems to be prevalent around the SEC top programs. But in general, I don't get that impression from teams like Georgia, South Carolina, Mizzou, Vandy to name a few. Even Auburn with Malzahn seems to be a clean run program. I pride myself that we don't have that attitude at Ohio State or really any Big Ten school other than Penn State and perhaps Nebraska. Shaping the kids into decent adults is a priority. I can't think of a team in the ACC other than Miami, and maybe UNC that has that attitude. FSU in general seems to be a clean run program, along with Clemson. Sure teams will have some struggles and be penalized for it, but I think most schools and their administrations try very hard to keep things clean. I think there are several teams in the Pac that could fall into that attitude though. Teams that have a lot of flash can fall into that trap easily. USC is rotten and I think Oregon is starting to fall down that path in the next decade. And of course we have Texas A&M where win at all costs in the new mantra. Any big 12 programs with a win at all cost attitude seem to be an outlier. Then there is alabama which has had at least a dozen scandals since Saban arrived (while they are under parole) but appear to have bought off the NCAA.
I'm not saying that coaches and players won't bend the rules to try to gain an advantage, but there are only a dozen or so that are win at all cost systemic problems.

Not touching this one

Edit: Real friendly spot for Aubie there on that marshall run

Gators have to beat FSU or South Carolina to even go to bowl. Can't believe there isn't a Fire Muschamp chant going on right now. If I were there I would be getting that going. That said, glad I went to the Tennessee game rather than this one. Just pitiful.

Cal is awful, and USC looks like a different team post-Kiffin.

Kiffin is like Muschamp...some coordinators are meant to be coordinators, not head coach.
