their academics will make it never happen

I think FSU would happen first (they are very close to AAU status )

I don't see Clemson ever getting that nod

you assume LSU can score 28...

mark cuban is the leader of the NIL. crew there, he's an IU alum

always new freshman for Lane

I live in Bradley county, where he played his final year the sheriff made sure to have a talk with the family before he even transferred.

tennesse came up to Columbus last year for the playoffs.... let me tell you as a native volunteer... most of you were good folks, but man the worst of you were absolutely embarrassing. all teams got em, but the amount of smacktalk was awful.

bigten teams go south all the time for bowls so that's not a unique situation, and didn't Ohio State play Texas in dallas for their game?

ohio state isn't a normal bigten team,. they have weapons to fight fire with fire,. bit not many of these teams can do that,. so they gotta grind you down and wait for the mistakes without making their own

I have the privilege of being from SEC land, living here again (after military and college and a bad marriage took me elsewhere), but I am an Ohio State alum (longer story)..

the dregs of bigten football are bad, like really bad (think UCLA, Wisconsin)
the 2nd tier teams however are good teams, who are not a site win, and depending on the location can beat most teams if they get a few breaks (think Michigan, USC, iowa, washingtonhere, a few others )

their style is boring, but they build their styles around the weather they are gonna play in. the Midwest is unforgivable in the fall, and so a pass happy attack for most isn't really a possibility due to lack of recruiting power. Ohio State can have it all, most have to choose one or the other, and choose boring run, and stout defenses that unfortunately focus on the run.

these new West coast teams are different, and that culture will change is or ours them, probably the latter.

I generally find SEC football more enjoyable to watch, as it's more wide open, and in the past they were definitely far better outside a few top teams.

NIL. has begun to close that gap I think. those schools up there are rich, bigger alum bases, more billionaires who have FU money, (see Indiania and Michigan specifically). just the amount being drafted to the NFL now is near even, where even five years ago the gap was fairly large still.

I've seen MULTIPLE posters here state "Kentucky and miss state can easily win the big ten" no they cant. they would suck there also, cu tbh... they suck.

now, if inhabe to watch a game thats between Ole miss and Tennessee or washington vs iowa, I'm choosing the sec game. make it USC vs Oregon inmay choose that game tho that doesn't exactly mean I think Tennessee is better (they really are not very good this year) than the big ten teams,. just the game will be more entertaining for me under no circumstances am I watching UK vs MISS STATE. ILL go cut the grass in January first

hope that is an honest opinion

I graduated from Ohio State but.... from East Tennessee. the play-offs decide all either way stop whining about things you can't control, and get to the dance and see what happens

don't go to a strip bar in Nashville Broadway is far better

you think Florida is a better job than penal state ?

when he got his shots, teams ran at him. He wasn't very high on the depth chart and wouldn't start this year either, even after a complete NFL exit on the Dline
