I don't care what the talking heads say the Big Ten is better than the SEC this year and Ohio State's schedule is tougher than Bama's and we don't even play either the second or third best team in the conference depending on what you think.

I'll take
Iowa over Arkansas (yeah the lost to Zona they also spotted them 21 points I'd take Iowa the next 9 times if that were played again.)
Wisconsin over LSU
I'll still take them if you disagree with me and switch the teams.

I'll concede
Florida over Michigan

OOC
I'll take
Miami over Penn State (suck's because it's a Big Ten team but the Canes are better)
The rest of both teams OOC sucks so that's a toss up.

If we had Nebraska in the conference this year it wouldn't even be close.

Arkansas hung with Bama and you for forgot Auburn. Hard to tell which conference is better. I thought Wiscy would be better than what they have shown. I'll wait for the bowl games and go from there

umm...how are you getting these matchups and why are you leaving out Florida and Auburn.

I think...

Ohio St. vs Bama - i'd say Bama is better than us right now.
Iowa vs Florida - I think Iowa would beat them up handily atm
Mich St vs LSU - LSU's offense is atrocious so I again give the edge to us.
Wisconsin vs Arkansas - Ark would beat them up
after that who really cares?

Michigan vs Auburn - Auburn would stomp the Volverines.

after that though i'd say the bottom of the SEC is better than Minny, Indiana, Illinois would put up a fight.

If it played out that way, in the end the media would still see Bama beating us for a NC and give the SEC the nod in being superior and we'd never hear the end of the SEC SPEED!!!!!111!

A. I didn't leave Florida out said they would beat Michigan likely our third best team.
B. you're right about Auburn they're probably better than Florida they'd easily take Michigan.
C. You can say Wisky would get a beat down by Arkansas I don't see it.
so D. if I have to move Florida down I guess that puts them up against Illinois, thinking about that match-up it feels like a tossup depending on what Illinois team shows up. That team could bereally dangerous next year if they fire Zook and get a real coach in there. Just like when he left Florida he's recruited well and just can't coach what he's got. That situation is just waiting for someone to walk in and reap the rewards just like Urban did.

wait hold on. You actually think on a neutral field Illinois will hang with Florida?

THEN, you say that Urban Meyer reaped the benefits of Zooks recruiting?

Meyer has won with plenty of his kids. Nothing he's done at Florida is because of Zook - except the arrests that are still happening according to some Florida fans lol

It's hard to tell without more evidence, but I honestly think that the SEC has a better selection of teams than the Big Ten this year. The tide is definitely turning, but it hasn't spunt around all the way yet.

Honest assessment requested here:
WTF is going on? The talent is there, there are playmakers all over the field. Why is the offense so bad? Is Brantley just not as advertised? I mean, I can see a team with a new identity being sluggish out of the gate, but 5 games in, I'd expect some semblance of progress. They just look awful all around.
