I wouldn't say dominated. I think their record against SEC teams is just below .500. Still impressive.
I believe Bowden's comment was more about if FSU had to play an SEC team every week, not just one or two games per year. He may have also been referring to when FSU first joined the ACC so there is certainly a time factor to consider.
Either way, FSU is a great team (they have more national championships than my Razorbacks do). I hope all of the conferences continue to strengthen to level the playing field. As long as the football is good on Saturday, I'm a happy camper.
You're a good man, sir. I expected a much different reply when I logged on :)
Mayhaps dominate was a bit strong, I believe it was 18-14-1. I believe the impressiveness comes from the fact that every single one of those, aside from one, was against a top notch SEC team that went on to a premier bowl game that year.
Keep putting together classes like you have coming up and Razorbacks will surprise everyone!

And cheers to you good sir. May your (seasonal) Saturdays always be filled with cold beverages and hard-hitting football.
