Been saying it all year that top to bottom this conference played the best football. Their top is far better than anything the SEC has on top. Sorry UGA. These are physical and fast teams with excellent coaches. It’s been coming for a while...

Sham that they were left out... no reason for it whatsoever.

It's almost like missing out on the playoffs pushed every Big 10 team down bowl tiers and gave them easier matchups

They were left out because Alabama runs college football

The Big Ten is definitely stronger across the board this year than in previous years...and the SEC is down, but this statement is dumb as shite. Alabama or UGA would murder UW or OSU.

I grew up a Wisconsin fan, I've watched all of their games this year except FAU. They're strong but they'd get slaughtered.

That's just dumb

You can certainly argue their 4-9 is better than anyone elses, but OSU/PSU/Wisky are "far better" than AU/UGA/UA? That's stupid.

Except for that whole 5 touchdown loss to an unranked team, which is something no national championship contender has ever done and remained in contention. Ever.

They have won the cotton bowl against the #8 team in the country

They won the fiesta bowl against the #11 team in the country

And they are up 10 in the orange bowl against the #10 team in the country


Robert E. Lee is going to come down and smite you if you admit the SEC isn't shite this year and the northern conference is better.....

While I agree the Big 10 has looked better than the SEC, lets not gloss over the fact the Big 10 has gotten to play a lot of games against the 1-8 PAthetiC12. The SEC doesn't get to play any games against that grease fire of a conference in the bowls.

You don't think Alabama, Georgia, and Auburn would've won those games too?

Ehh, I don't know. We will see how those teams look.

I don't have much faith in the SEC this year at all

And there's also the itsy bitsy, teensy weensy problem of the Big X's champion getting the frick beaten out of them at home by Oklahoma...

Or, maybe the Pac-12 lost a lot of games because they played the best conference so much, instead of the SEC.

Auburn v. OSU
