A11dAtP0w3R Are you laughing with me at MSU or laughing at me for dissing the Big Ten?
I honestly think Big Ten teams like Michigan, Michigan St, Penn State, Iowa and Wisconsin would struggle to go 0.500 if they played in the SEC. Conversely, if you plucked any one of Arkansas, LSU, Auburn, Ole Miss, Tennessee or Miss State out of the SEC and gave them a Big Ten schedule, I reckon they'd be 9-1 or 8-2
The Big Ten is the most overrated conference in the NCAA. It's hyped because of its history, its storied programs and its big tv ratings. But it's just not as good as it's cracked up to be. Ohio State is the only college ever capable of winning a national championship. The other Big Ten colleges are just riding their coat tails... When was the last time any other Big Ten team came close? The Spartans got into the Top 4 playoff a few years back, but they were routed 38-0 by Alabama. It was a joke.... Just like it's a joke always seeing 4 or 5 Big Ten teams ranked in the Top 15. It's bull crap.
Have a look through the past 10 NFL drafts on Wikipedia, sort the table by conference and look at the spread of Pro Bowlers. Every year, the SEC has twice as many as all the other conferences. Even the Pac 12, Big 12 and ACC usually have more Pro Bowlers than the Big Ten. Yet the Big Ten always has the second most overall players drafted behind the SEC. (I realise the Pro Bowl is a pile of dung, but Pro Bowl selection is still a reasonable indication of a quality player)
If I was an NFL GM, I would generally avoid selecting Big Ten players (apart from Offensive Linemen)
Notre Dame haven't beaten anyone good this year. Wisconsin (8-3) are okay. Not that good. All of their other wins have come against average/mediocre teams with W/L records of 6-5, 5-6 (or worse.) They've played one decent team this year (at home vs Cincinnati) and they were soundly beaten.ACC, Big12 and Pac-12 likely out of the Playoffs. Big decision between Cinci and ND [I wonder if H2H will be enough for Cinci] if they decide to keep 2 SEC teams in the playoffs
They have name recognition. Which i think is dumb. it got them in a few years ago and they were slaughtered. But the CFP dont learn with letting teams in on name only to have them get blown out.Notre Dame haven't beaten anyone good this year. Wisconsin (8-3) are okay. Not that good.

If only Notre Dame could defeat a top quality opponent in a conference championship game.
Oh well. Too bad. You make your bed (of money) as an independent. You gotta lie in it.
The CFP committee can't reward greed and cowardice.
Buckeyes scoring at will against the so-called "number 7 ranked" Spartans. It's utterly embarrassing. Sparty showing as much resistance as a wet tissue.
49-0 at half time
Ohio State's first 7 possessions... 500 yards... 7 touchdowns
Michigan State's 7 possessions... 116 yards... Punt, Missed FG, Fumble, Punt, Punt, Punt, Punt
Let's hear no more talk about the SEC's "cupcake" scheduling. The Big Ten should be renamed: OSU's Cupcake Conference.
With that said, it's been an awesome flex by the Buckeyes. I think they're a big threat to Georgia for the national championship
I just don't think any other Big Ten team should be ranked in the top 20. They're all sh*t.
