Bad option this season but this has happened in the past when there were a number of SEC West teams better than the top team in the East.

Likely Clemson has faced off in the ACC against teams no better than Purdue (or those middling SEC East teams)
When was the last time the B10 West put up a fight? It’s the B League of the B10

Yeah i agree. It's not just a big 10 issue

Big 12 and pac 12 are the onlu 2 that got the correct system from the power 5

Here ya go...... since the OSU 59-0 stomping in the 2014 season, 2015-17 were all 1 score games. 2019 and 2020 were 2 score games, and think we scored kind of late to make it a 2 score game in each.

And how about the SEC championship game? In the same time frame, East beat West all of 1 time. Game within 2 scores only 3 times (one was 15 points)

ACC? Had a close one in 2014 with FSU winning, followed by a couple 1 score games with Clemson winning. Then 4 Clemson blowouts and a Pitt blowout.

Agree with B12 because actually 10 and they can all play each other. Might as well do top 2 teams.

Georgia and Florida have actually won national championships in the modern era. In the SEC you’ve seen ebbs and flows as to which division is better. That’s not the case in the B10. The B10 West is Little Engine That Could - lucky to finish top 40 in recruiting- we do a lot with 3 star grinders but get exposed vs real talent kind of programs. The B10 needs realignment.

Not sure if you meant to move the goalposts as far as you did, but this was your comment to which I replied......."When was the last time the B10 West put up a fight? It’s the B League of the B10."

and as I showed the BIG west no more the B league of the BIG than other divisions in other conferences.

as for realignment might just wait until USC/UCLA joins and just add them to the West and bring someone over to the East. Maybe Purdue?

OSU loses 2 in a row to UM.........Browns' D plays lights out for a long stretch, with clutch plays from many on offense, defense and ST..........and Brissett outduels Brady in OT

Apocalypse?

Liked Matty Ice back in the day...

28-3 will be on his mind for the rest of his life. Sometimes you get 1 chance to win it all and must capitalize on that....him and those guys didn't and never got close to getting back which must really hurt

I have a buddy who is a huge Falcons fan.

He sent out a bunch of Brady Belicek memes in a group text at halftime of that game.

I am pretty sure it was his fault the Falcons blew it.
