November 19, 200619 yr Top to bottom, the Big 10 is the best conference this year. I'd rank the SEC second and the Pac-10 third. I disagree. The Big 10 is an abysmal conference offensively. They barely filled their bowl spots.
November 19, 200619 yr Top to bottom, the Big 10 is the best conference this year. This is an argument I've yet to hear this year about the Big 10(11). They are ridiculously top heavy.
November 19, 200619 yr This is an argument I've yet to hear this year about the Big 10(11). They are ridiculously top heavy. After further review, I'll retract the top to bottom statement. I will take their 1-5 against any other conference's 1-5. :thumb:
November 19, 200619 yr The Big Ten teams' records in games with opponents that were ranked in the top 25 when they played this year is 6-29 take out the BIG TWO Mich and OSU and the liitle 8's record against ranked teams is 1-28.
November 19, 200619 yr After further review, I'll retract the top to bottom statement. I will take their 1-5 against any other conference's 1-5. :thumb: That's definitely a statement I can get behind. Especially the top 3, where you've got OSU (12-0), Michigan (11-1, only loss to OSU), and Wisconsin (11-1, only loss to Michigan).
November 19, 200619 yr I'll will go with the Big Ten's top 2 but #3 Wisconsin has played only one ranked team and lost, #4 Penn St is 0-4 against ranked teams and #5 Purdue is 0-3.
November 19, 200619 yr You make some valid arguments. You say Arkansas makes a rise off of one player. OK. If OSU were to lose Troy Smith, what happens to OSU? What if Michigan loses Hart? One player means a lot to many teams. Yeah imagine if Louisville lost Micheal Bush... Oh wait... nevermind.
November 19, 200619 yr The SEC is the best conference most years, but not this year. Here's why: The best teams struggle to win at home against the worst teams in the conference. Florida needed a FG block at home to escape SC LSU needed OT to beat Ole Miss UGA crushed Auburn Just to name a few Arkansas comes out of nowhere to establish itself as the best team in the conference. On the strength of basically one player. Kentucky is having a great year in the conference, yet struggles at home against an absolutely awful team. Bottom line: The SEC lives off that "top to bottom" hogwash, yet refuses to schedule tough non-conference games. What are they afraid of? That the unfortunate ugly truth will be exposed? At best, the SEC is equal to the other major conferences. And don't use the whole "the SEC has five ranked teams" garbage. So does the ACC, and they're in a very down year. Well I said what I had to say yesterday in the previous thread that we talked about this in, and you really didn't have much to say back to it because your reasoning for why the SEC is not the best can be said for EVERY OTHER SINGLE CONFERENCE IN AMERICA. So I am not going to repeat it all again in this thread. The SEC is the best top to bottom but just not by that much anymore over the other conferences...
November 19, 200619 yr WVU and UL are legit... never was a believer in Rutgers. WVU will put it on them in Morgantown. :thumb:
November 19, 200619 yr This should be fun... :lol: SEC fans call it parity... Others call it overrated...
November 19, 200619 yr SEC fans call it parity... Others call it overrated... And they only call it parity when the top of the league is down...
November 20, 200619 yr And they only call it parity when the top of the league is down... Right Two of the top 6... three of the top 10... four of the top 12 in the BCS. Top of the league must be real down :lol: :lol: :lol:
