Which of these matchups do you think the BIG TEN would have the best chance of winning?
Also, what do you think the overall record would be for the SEC in these 12 games?
Assuming neutral sites with split crowds.

Wisconsin (13) vs LSU (1)

Ohio St (14) vs Alabama (2)

Michigan (17) vs Georgia (8)

Nebraska (19) vs South Carolina (11)

Michigan St. (20) vs Arkansas (12)

Iowa (45) vs Florida (16)/ Auburn (24)

Penn St (50) vs Missouri (26)/ A&M (28)

Illinois (55) vs Tennessee (31)

Northwestern (57) vs Miss St. (35)

Purdue (58) vs Vandy (43)

Minnesota (74) vs Ole Miss (80)

Indiana (97) vs Kentucky (83)

These rankings are from Phil Steele and seemed good enough for this purpose.
I would have the SEC going 11-1 with a loss by Ole Miss or Kentucky, maybe one other unexpected loss.

I'm sure we would see the same result in round 2. It baffles be that the media (ESPN typically) tries to claim there is any comparison between the conferences. The Big Ten would be really lucky to win 2 games.

I agree with Gladius - Minn vs Ole Miss would be the best bet.

Vandy would beat Purdue, IMO.

Also, we'd dominate Mich. St.

If Ohio State is the second best team in the Big Ten, the conference is dreadful.

Michigan St would rape Arkansas. They actually should be ranked higher in the B1G than they are.

I'm sorry but I would not bet on UGA beating anyone OOC lately

For some reason, they are not carrying the SEC flag well.

Indiana (97) vs Kentucky (83)


These are my picks if I were to bet the moneyline. Not really sure what Mich St has coming back though, so that may be a toss up.

Mich St will prove to be the best team in the Big 10 this year, IMO.
