The MEAC is 10-5 against the SWAC since 2009 overall. And the MEAC is 8-2 against the SWAC in MEAC/SWAC Challenge contests since its inception.
The MEAC has been the better conference.

Look at the match ups and compare teams records that year they played.

And were those even matchups, because a lot of times you see the bottom teams of the SWAC taking on the top teams of the MEAC.
In 2005, Bama State lost to SCSU a year removed from winning the SWAC.
In 2006, Grambling lost in the challenge a season after winning the SWAC
In 2008, Hampton beat a JSU team coming off a SWAC championship in 2007.
In 2009, SCSU beat a Grambling team that was the defending SWAC champion.
In 2012, BCU beat a Bama State squad that went on to finish tied for first in the SWAC East.
In 2013, FAMU beat Valley. In 2012, FAMU was 4-7. MVSU was 5-6 in 2012.
At least in half of the matchups, a top-tier SWAC school lost to a MEAC school in the challenge.
And this season, Grambling -- who ended up nearly winning the SWAC West -- lost to a MEAC school in a non-challenge game.
Again, the MEAC has gotten the best of the SWAC regardless of you slice it.

That's not a fair assessment since attrition, has effect on one team more than the other.
A fair assessment would be to look at where each team ended at that particular year.

The point is K, you're trying to compare two totally different teams after the season is over. You can't say ones is this or one was that if the lose the bulk of their lineup or coach for that matter.
Alabama State 6-3 South Carolina State 7-1 2nd (2nd 0verall) vs 2nd
Grambling State 3-6 Hampton 7-1 4th (9th overall) vs 1st
Southern University 6-3 Florida A&M 2-7 2nd (3rd overall) vs 9th
Jackson State 6-3 Hampton 5-3 1st (3rd overall) vs 2nd
Grambling State 6-3 South Carolina State 8-0 3rd (3rd overall) vs 1st
Southern University 1-8 Delaware State 2-6 5th (10th overall) vs 6th
Prairie View A&M 5-4 Bethune-Cookman 6-2 3rd (6th overall) vs 2nd
Alabama State 7-2 Bethune-Cookman 8-0 1st (2nd overall) vs 1st
Mississippi Valley State 2-7 Florida A&M 2-6 5th (9th overall) vs 9th
Alabama A&M 3-6 North Carolina A&T 6-2 4th (9th overall) vs 1st
BTW pop, for the record SU has own the meac since every bowl or classic, so there's no need for me to spin anything, I'm just looking at it a little more indepth beyond what last years team did.

That's impressive. :tup: Regardless if you think the SWAC (or MEAC) is the better conference, this hire would be huge.
First, it was the MEAC wins because the bulk of the games are matchups are between the MEAC's best and the SWAC's worst.
And when that was debunked, folks wanted to know what were the records of the teams AT THE TIME the games were played. Then ya'll wanted to know what were the records of the teams AFTER they played when some didn't like what was presented.
THEN you come here talking about about coaching changes or roster attrition.
No matter how many qualifiers are thrown out there, the numbers and the outcomes speak for themselves. They just do.
Now ya'll trying to spin this.
