I know we cant change the strength of the BIG10 confrence schedule but until the rest get better we cant settle for just playing one good non confrence team a year

Well, as we saw, Missouri is basically the equivalent of Northwestern. I don't care what their mythical numbered ranking was at the time. Oklahoma State was also manhandled in the second half of their bowl game to an Oregon team that pulled out a dramatic win over Purdue this season. Purdue.

Umm... Miami was pretty "meh" this season. Tennessee was awful. They lost to Wyoming and to UCLA when UCLA was playing with a walk-on QB. South Carolina was blown out by Iowa, something that didn't happen to Northwestern or Illinois (Illinois beat Iowa). LSU was good by bowl time, but it was because of the development of the QB that didn't play until the last two games of the season. He didn't against UF. Troy had them down 34 points, and Troy was one of OSU's cream puffs.

You are really reaching to the point that it is sad. Why is the USC game the only one worth anything? Because the others lost bowl games? Well, take off South Carolina, Miami, Oklahoma State, Oklahoma, and Alabama. Then knock Tennessee off the list because they had a losing record. LOL LOL.

Take your toys and go home.

Well, since the Big Ten and SEC are 18-18 against each other in bowl games in the last 11 years, I would say they shouldn't be laughing too much. Are they laughing? Probably? But remember, these same people had African Americans using separate water fountains and schools just 30-40 years ago.

Grow a pair buddy...

Don't underestimate what influence the almighty dollar has on the scheduling. MAC schools and smaller schools always come to the shoe. If you sign to play more dominant programs you have to go home and home with them. Giving up a home game costs the bucks big bucks. One top notch out of conference game is about all the bucks can afford a season. 110,000 people X tickets x parking x food etc...............

That wasn't that long ago and was only forced on them by the US Supreme Court, along with efforts from northern based interest groups.

Just reminding you of who we are all dealing with when we talk about the SEC. It won't matter what OSU or the Big Ten does, they will argue the same bunk. Plus, they still have a giant chip on their collective shoulders about the "North." Trust me.
