Bolded the interesting ones to me.
Colorado is every single bit as terrible as they have ever been. Deon's entire tenure is a fraud, has not produced a single noteworthy win.
For all of Vandy's recent success, their upset of Alabama turns out to be the only major win of substance they've had.
Nebraska, Wisconsin, and Iowa seem like "quality" opponents on paper but are in reality just tomato cans for the actual good teams.
Auburn has played the most final ranked opponents of anyone on the list and managed to lose just about all of them, many close calls but still almost all L's.

Eight big ten schools…

and that's what those dullards don't understand whenever the strength of the conferences is debated.
Sure the heavy hitters at the top of both leagues are going to be really good top 10 caliber teams. That's obvious. But in the SEC you might have 1 team on your schedule that you know you can sleep walk and play your bakcups and still win without breaking a sweat. In the Big 10 those kind of teams could be half your schedule. Even SEC teams on this list like AU or vandy have the talent to at least make you work for it, and often times will play it down into the 4th quarter. The same can't be said for frickin rutgers

The story of Auburn the last 5 years. They could play with anyone but couldn’t figure out how to win. Just a losing culture the past 5 years. Hopefully heading in the right direction now. We shall see.

Every Kentucky fan has quietly opened this thread, and with amazement for UK not being listed, quietly ducked back out. It was time for a change, but I will always give a nod to Stoops for things like this.

The dmv has some of the most fertile recruiting grounds in college football, a gigantic population and the three flagship schools are a combined 0-38 against the top 25. That’s insane. No major power. Just futility. If Franklin hasn’t lost his chops, he could very easily turn VT into a power in a couple years.

Auburn at 2-20 is shocking.

In Auburn's defense, 40-something percent of the games were against Georgia and Alabama.

I remember that was a thing regarding Mullen's bad record against ranked teams while at State. Almost all of them were top 5-15, rarely played a #20-25 team. Or if he beat them, they were no longer ranked.

Since you brought it up, Ole Miss has never played in the SEC championship game, State has.

I’ll take that over an 8 win season (where Alabama being on probation got y’all to Atlanta) from nearly 30 years ago.
