Okay, so Devil's Advocate here...
Which is more impressive for a conference?
- One great team that wins everything, plus a couple of "good" teams that get in the playoffs. 3 teams in the playoff, total. One with a first-round exit, a second with a second-round exit. The third team wins the championship. You got MAYBE one more that some people claim should have been in the playoff, but no one takes them seriously. All the other teams in the conference play football like they hate the smell of their own farts.
- A bunch of "good" teams that get in the playoff. Let's say 5 teams in the playoff. One with a first-round exit. Two with second-round exits. And the last two with a third-round exit (semifinals). No teams get to the finals.

You gotta think like a SEC SEC SEC! hack here. Postseason results may only be used to point out strength when the SEC does well. If the SEC does not do well "you can't judge them based on the postseason!"

@charlohiottean I didn’t want to post this in the MP thread. But the Sayin/Brees comparison has been a real one for a while. And him working out with Brees just made the comparison stronger

Ohio State DC Matt Patricia compares QB Julian Sayin to an NFL legend and his similar run in the Big Ten​

Patricia's comparison holds up in more ways than one​

While Julian Sayin may currently be one of college football's best players, Ohio State defensive coordinator Matt Patricia is also comparing the redshirt freshman quarterback to one of the greatest quarterbacks of all-time.

Patricia, a longtime NFL coach who won three Super Bowls with the Patriots, said that Sayin reminds him of a fellow Big Ten quarterback who went onto enjoy a Hall of Fame NFL career.

"Very efficient, really good leader, smart with the football," Patricia said of Sayin on the Downs 2 Business podcast. "He's doing a good job of getting the ball out to those guys, too. So maybe that's a young Drew Brees. Maybe that's where we're headed with it."

From a numbers standpoint, Patricia's comparison holds up.

During his three seasons as a starter at Purdue, Brees led the Big Ten in completions three times and in completion percentage on two occasions. In his first year as Ohio State's starting quarterback, Sayin is currently pacing the Big Ten in completions and completion percentage.

Sayin, who has completed a staggering 80.9% of his passes this season, is on pace to set a new NCAA single-season record for completion percentage.

Both quarterbacks parlayed their individual success into team success. During his senior season (2000), Brees led the Boilermakers to a share of the Big Ten title and the school's first trip to the Rose Bowl in 34 years. In fact, it was a 64-yard, game-winning touchdown pass from Brees against the Buckeyes that season that spearheaded Purdue's conference championship. It also contributed to the end of John Cooper's long and largely successful run as the Buckeyes' coach.

This season, Sayin has helped the defending national champions get off to a 9-0 start entering Saturday night's home game against UCLA. Last week, against Brees' alma mater, Sayin completed a whopping 81.8% of his throws for 303 yards with a touchdown and an interception while helping lead the Buckeyes to a 34-10 win.

I watched that too. i was amazed by what seemed to me to be the coaches not being able to get the players to stick to their blocking assignments. Apparently there was some butt chewing after incorrect blocks. The coaches need to get their acts together.
I was thinking the problem is all on the right side of the line. For sure I know better now
