There are more important data points to consider than just whether it was in an SGC slab before and what the grade is. Knowing when the card was graded by SGC and why it received the grade it did (e.g., due to corner wear, centering, surface wear, creases, etc) are more predictive if whether or not it will cross than just blindly assuming the reason it did or didn't cross is because of the current state of the hobby or an inherent bias to one's "team".

The fact remains, if your SGC grade is due to corner wear, it's unlikely to cross to PSA. If it's due to centering, it can often bump at PSA. If it's due to creases or surface wear, there's more variance from one grader to the next, it could go either way.
