re: The SEC dominance is hurting college football overall

The idea that Michigan was 'dominant' at any point outside of a couple outlying years since the Fielding Yost era ninety years ago is one of the biggest jokes in all of CFB.


Win % would beg to differ.

Win pct is misleading for two reasons:

1) the rest of the Big 10 sucked arse for decades, greatly inflating that win pct. From the late 1960s through the end of the 1970s, when they were racking up all those wins, name 5 teams in that conference historically as competitive as Alabama, Auburn, LSU, Tennessee, and Georgia.

2) for decades, due to Big 10 rules, the runner up in the Big 10 had to sit at home during bowl season instead of going and getting their arse kicked by a team from a power conference.
