The Big Ten might have won the last three College Football Playoff national championships, but that’s not enough make it obviously better than the SEC, former Alabama coach Nick Saban said Thursday.

Funny I don't recall this being the official company line from ESPN when Saban was winning NC's from a very top heavy SEC.

In fact, if we look back on 2025 through the lens of Disney/ESPN official transitive property doctrine it would have to work like this:
-IU won the NC and beat Alabama 38-3
-IU barely survived Penn State 27-24
-PSU only went 3-6 in conference
-Therefore, according to established precedent, the following must be true: Oregon, UCLA, Northwestern, IU, OSU and Iowa are all better than anyone in the SEC
-Under the codicil of "close losses count against the transitive property too" : Penn State only beat Rutgers by 4. Penn State stayed with 3 of IU. IU beat Bama by 35 therefore Rutgers is also better than Bama.

Just trying to stay on point and show why it's ok for Purdue and Sparty fans to be pounding their chest and chanting "B-I-G" after Indiana won the title last year.
