They are probably all about even.

Wisconsin could win the B10. Neither WVU nor KSU are conference contenders. That was easy.

Is that really an accomplishment, or just being the least retarded type thing.

Common opponents arguments are worthless.

Main reason I came away high on AU in this game was their D. They didn't give up many sustained drives and they forced turnovers and made some encouraging plays on D.

The West is stacked, but I like AU the most right now of the teams. Based on what I've seen in this young season.

It will look good on their resume at the end of the year. Most of the voters will forget about KSU's red zone mistakes. If KSU ends up ranked, it will look really good.

The West seems more wide open than the East does now, with 4 contenders.

Perhaps, but it could get them into the playoff. Do you think that either K-State or WVU has a chance in hell at the playoff? Right now, Wisconsin is clearly the best win of the three.

I don't see it (if the basis they could win a terrible conference), but we're arguing perception so it's kind of pointless.

It will be interesting. I'm assuming you mean A&M, Alabama, Auburn, and LSU. I don't think any of these are complete teams.

Of these teams, my perception is that Alabama will be the most consistent. LSU will obviously be up and down all year - they will look great at times and terrible at times. A&M is looking great right now but they have had problems in the past with smaller, faster defenses.

Auburn was supposed to be the complete team. I'm not sure they are. I don't think KSU had the depth on D to go 4 quarters against that system with those athletes. But other teams do have the depth.

Auburn is the only one of the three to play in an opponent's home stadium. Madison and Morgantown at night in prime time is a different deal than a neutral site.

In that case, Auburn's win was by far the worst of the three. Bama and LSU struggled at times, but Auburn looked absolutely awful the entire game and should have lost by double digits. Plus, it was the only college game on, so everyone who follows the sport closely saw it.

Possibly, probably even.

Better to be lucky than good i guess.

Not sure what any of this has to do with which of the three teams is better though.

You're just not going to get me on board with a "wisky because they could win the shite show that is the big 10" argument.

Yeah, no one actually thought Bama was in danger of losing to WV. LSU took control and dominated at the end. AU very well could have lost.

I dunno. Apples and Oranges right now. No one knows.

How do you know it was the worst of the three when you didn't watch it?

The funny part about this argument is that it (probably) will work itself out on the field.

That's the good part. If this was a discussion about 3-4 top teams from other divisions/conferences, it could go on for an eternity.
