The big 12 from 2000-2010 was better than the sec top to bottom and it’s not a question. OU is twice the program TN is hi...

In the Playoff era:
SEC - 6 national championships
Big Ten - 2 national championships
ACC - 2 national championships[/quote]
It gets even worse for the B1G the further you go back (counting major poll titles).
Since the dawn of the millennium:
SEC - 14
B1G - 3
Since 1990:

You're out of your mind if you think Lando would've easily passed Oscar with a 3 - 4 second gap on this track and only 20 or so laps remaining.

[quote]i think he DNFs at Nashville and at least 1 of the Milwaukee races[/quote]
Oh snap. In such a case, the championship would be won at the final race and likely by Power, Herta, Palou (still possible), or Dixon.

Palou sucks on ovals [/quote]
Not this again.
He finished 2nd in the last oval race that was run and has logged consecutive top ten finishes at Gateway.
If he doesn't DNF, he wins the title, IMO....

Thray is updated.
We now have a break until the final stretch, which heavy on ovals, to say the least.
At this point, it is going to take a DNF from Palou for anyone to catch him, IMO....

There were such orders, as I understand it.
Hopefully, Herta can keep up the momentum and continue to get better at these ovals....

That was a demolition derby today. But it didn’t feel as sloppy as Detroit.
Palou just existed himself into 4th today and actually added to his championship lead. And how about the spiciness between Scotty Mac and Power?...
