Last 15 years the Big 12 is the best. Texas (undefeated) Oklahoma (undefeated) Nebraska (2 undefeated Wins and 1 undefeated split win) |
|

Oklahoma dude pleaase the last national championship game they were in was seriously painful and a waste of my time to watch............. |
||
|
If you want to go 15 we can add LSU |
||
|
Uh yeah of course! SEC has great teams that play the best teams outside of conference also.
Arkansas for example has played both Texas and USC outside of conference in the last few years... |
|
And the mods here are objective! Snowballs chance in hell I believe is the term for both. 25.5 points not good enough for ya? LOL Actually with the point spread I am placing $100 on Vandy. |

Riiiight... put Bama's academics up beside ___________ (name your team) |

+1 LSU won the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP. Not USC. No split in my opinion - everyone signed off on the same system (BCS). And lets not forget that Nebraska was NOT in the Big 12 for those championships. I firmly believe that the reason the SEC doesn't win more championships is due to their very tough in-conference schedule. Texas did have the best team last year and deserved to win, but look at the number of games they play against total losers. Much lower chances of getting quality players hurt and more rest for your starters when you can pull them in the third quarter. In any given game - even if the team is having a bad year - any of these teams can ruin it for any of the SEC opponents they play: Florida, LSU, Georgia, Tennesse, Alabame, Auburn. Throw in the fact that the SEC plays a championship game, and someone's bound to come out with a black eye and a drop in the rankings just before the bowls. Does the Big Ten play a championship game? The Big 12 doesn't count, because the North and South divisions are too mismatched (UT - Colorado anyone?) |

And the conference with 6 teams out of the top 10 in attendance last year was... ? Anyone? Anyone? web1.ncaa.org/d1mfb/Internet/attendance/IA_ATTENDANCE.pdf |
|
|
Same here. Besides, at ARFCOM, what else would one expect? |
||
|
And I guess everyone should have written Florida off after the '96 Fiesta Bowl... |

This's from Nationalchamps.net for the 2005 season. For what it's worth.
What is the toughest conference? Using our sliding scale point formula, the SEC is still king, followed by the Big XII. The surprise came from the ACC, ranking only ahead of the Big East in terms of the BCS big boys. While the ACC likely represents the most parity from top to bottom, they are still void of anyone resembling a Top 7 team. These issues are a big reason why no one from the ACC will be playing in Pasadena come January 4, according to our calculations. SEC .734 Big XII .646 Big Ten .634 Pac Ten .565 ACC .540 Big East .283 WAC .248 Mountain West .184 MAC .133 Conference USA .050 Sun Belt .031 |

2005 season only...jesus big deal...the I vote that the BIG 12, then the BIG 10 have the strongest overall seasons in history. (if you add the big 8 in with the big 12 of course...) |
|
|
Yeah, like it's really any different up north. Not hardly. |
|
|
The SEC west is the toughest of the tough SEC! Go LSU! Go TIGERS!
|
|
Good point. Hmmm... I wonder which college football team has more bowl appearances and bowl victories than any other?... |
|
|
One of the strongest teams in the BIG 10 vs. the doormat of the SEC. Yeah, some legitimate comparison there. |
|
|
Can I get a "rammerjammer" |

|
I colored the words for you. |

|
How do you arrive at that conclusion? Just curious. |
|

Go SEC!
Go Razorbacks! But our first game this year is against USC But other than that, we're supposed to have a pretty good year; finally have an offensive coordinator who is familiar with the QB. Should be competent at least. But, really, SEC is king. Even Vandy, which is usually the floormat of the conference, had a great season last year. And then that one year Auburn got cheated out of the national game even though they were undefeated. Of course they put in Oklahoma, who in turn got their asses handed to them. |
|
Watch for upset Sept. 2 Hogs over Trojans. Our turf this year. 51,000 strong and the world's largest Jumbotron. Go Hogs.

Even though I live in Big XII country, I'd say the SEC is the best conference out there year to year. I have no problems with that.....especially considering the enormous success the Huskers have had against SEC teams through the years! (No disrespect intended....all in good fun)
Since we aren't in the best conference, I take comfort in knowing that Nebraska has the two best teams in college football history according to sports analyst and writers. The only question is, which team gets the nod as #1? The 1970 or the 1995 Huskers? I say the '95 Huskers! Peace! |
|
Fix it for ya' |
|
|
+1 The Big10 is THE top football conference. |
|
|
Except for U of Ky! |
|
|
You're not gonna get an argument outta me on that one, being a Volunteer, I'd have to say that the 95 Huskers were scary. Everybody knew you were gonna run the option 90% of the time but Nebraska was like..."try and stop it bitches".....and of course nobody could, we certainly couldn't |
|
|
A-f'in-men brother! Although Im not really a big fan of this "lil red" character...I like harry husker and not the lil runt BY THE WAY, USC vs NEBRASKA...NEBRASKA doesnt have to win that game, they just cant lose badly and they will garner some serious respect right off the bat, and well, should they win...I dont think I need to say anything else. |

I am starting to think that we need to get some of the far flung ARFCOM Husker fans back to the state for the Nebraska v. Texas game. You and HH could even load up krpind and make a roadtrip. SBG ETA -- 26 Days and Counting |

That NU vs. USC will be extremely tough. USC is stocked with talent and losing Bowman to the ACL tear is a huge blow considering the Trojans talent at WR. Huskers have to win that game in the trenches for us to have a chance.
On a side note, I think Florida could be scary good with Meyer at the helm. But what will be really interesting is seeing Spurier face his old school. That should be fun. |
|
DK, if you take a shower, I will take you to a game at the BIG HOUSE!
|
|
Spurrier beat both Florida and Tennessee last year, the Gamecocks aren't gonna be pushovers anymore. |
|
|
WOOT! |

|
Man, there's always a catch! Actually, I'm hoping to see Vandy play at least once this year, and my wife and I are hoping to catch a Florida State game as well. |
|
|
If Urban gets his typical second year offensive impovement, everyone else is just playing for #2. |
|
|
I'll reserve the right to talk Smack until after the FSU-Miami game
|
|
That game is like watching a "yard riot" at Angola. |
|
|
Agreed! |
|
|
Miami
Florida State Virginia Tech Clemson Boston College Georgia Tech ACC > you |
|
Yeah, Clemson belongs in that list. |
|
|
Not to mention perennial powerhouses BC and GT. What was the score in last year's Peach Bowl? LSU - Miami, that is? |
||
|
Aren't most of the Miami players on work release from there? |
