So what you're saying is you have no possible way of proving your enormously idiotic narrative about the ACC Coastal being better than the B1G West. Yes, I know. You're completely outmatched in this discussion.

Since 2014(the start of the B1G West) the ACC Coastal rates out as better according to Sagarin. Obviously, you're going to dismiss it right off the bat, but that's the easiest thing to find because it rates out every division, pretty simply.

BCF Toys - 2017 FEI Ratings

Here's last years FEI. I have no idea what the outcome will be, but feel free to do the math with this if you want to make a point. Iowa and Wisconsin were decent last year, so you got a pretty good chance.

The other years are there too.

Here, I'll even do 2017 for you.

8 Wisconsin
14 Iowa
26 Purdue
43 Northwestern
82 Minnesota
99 Nebraska
119 Illinois

391 / 7 = Average rank of 55.

vs

17 Miami
31 Virginia Tech
41 Duke
60 Georgia Tech
71 Pittsburgh
78 Virginia
97 North Carolina

395 / 7 = Average rank of 56.

Well what do you know, it's pretty close but I think the Big10 West would have a small advantage last year over the ACC Coastal. Mostly because of...Purdue!! Didn't see that one coming. Wisconsin and Iowa also make the Big10 West a little better at the top last year, no surprise there. Beyond that, the ACC has an advantage and the bottom teams aren't as bad as the Big10 West's teams.

And that is how you make an actual argument that isn't based on bullshit and narratives. Of course, you don't make your opinions based on shit like this, you're just a ignorant Big10 homer looking for any stupid shit thing you can throw out there, so you give me "P5" and "G5" in bowl games over your cherry picked amount of time.

If I had to guess, I'd say the ACC Coastal comes out looking better in 2016, 2015 and 2014.

The B1G homers on here have a little dong complex for sure.

While other teams like USF, North Texas, and Cincinnati struggling to get votes; knowing they're good. Such bullshit. Oh well. It's just how it is.

Probably, this one had them basically even. If Purdue or any other Big10 west team had been just 4 spots lower it would have been a tie. Across 14 teams, that's basically nothing.

Purdue was a surprise being up that high. They were like 3-9 or some shit the year before.

I did the math for one, I can't say I actually care enough about comparing the 2 for the others.

Nope.

Boston College too since they beat up on Holy Cross. Since FSU is down this year, gotta have at least one "legit" opponent for Clemson. I see how this is.

So what you're telling me is even your metrics show the B1G West is better than the ACC Coastal. Cool.

Show me.

Facts are -

More bowl wins? B10W
Better bowl record? B10W
Quality of bowl opponents? B10W
Top 10 finishes? B10W
H2H? B10W and I believe it's not really close

But sure, obviously the Coastal is better.

I appreciate the effort and time on whoever did those metrics, but you can't convince me Temple is good.

I believe it was call the “leaders” division at the time. Because of gay.

2017:

B1G West: 76.73
ACC Coastal: 75.96

2016:

B1G West: 74.29
ACC Coastal: 77.84

2015:

B1G West: 74.56
ACC Coastal: 75.02

2014:

B1G West: 73.09
ACC Coastal: 74.35

B1G West Avg: 74.6675
ACC Coastal Avg: 75.7925

I only looked this up because I figured it would be close. But in 3 of the last 4 years the ACC Coastal has been better according to Sagarin. And it's off to a better start this year as well. But as I figured, you'd dismiss it.

Also, those facts you laid out, are pretty irrelevant. Bowl games? lmao.

Man fuck this thread, I was hoping for a good old fashioned Texas or A&M bashing thread and our self absorbed B1G posters took this shit over too. Fuck you guys.

probably better this way, otherwise it's like to midgets trying to punch the other.

Actually scratch that, fuck the B1G posters. I want to see two midgets punch each other!

***even if I'm one of the midgets
