Overrated Conferences

[PIBuckeye]

Garbage conference.

Their champ has now gotten their shit pushed in thrice by a collection of SEC teams.

Expand to 16. SEC/Big 10 get 12 in. Rest can fight over the 4 other bids.

Heck, just make the B10 and SEC the NFC and AFC. Would make things a lot easier.

as much as some might like that. Occasionally the big 2 might be deserving of 6 in each. this was a prime year example of one of the two bigs only deserving 3.

I'm just here to LOL at Paul Conference Homer Fanbaum still trying to spin how Tennessee was deserving but SMU and Indian weren't.

Did anybody mention that the ACC is TrACCh?

Thanks to that shit awful conference my Huskers enjoyed a bowl win today.

The SEC seems to be the most properly rated conference this year. Not dominant, not bums

For wildly-varying definitions of "properly". The SEC had 9 teams ranked before this season started. All of them dropped from their preseason ranking to their most-recent ranking, except Tennessee, who will plummet now after getting blown-out, and who was only ranked at all courtesy of their atrocious schedule. Only 1 SEC team started the season unranked, and finished it ranked ( South Carolina ).

For a conference that had 9 ranked teams in the preseason, the SEC's success against other conferences on the field has been unimpressive. SEC teams beat Clemson three times, and that's the sum total of the conference's wins over ranked non-conference opponents for the entire season. Meanwhile, SEC teams lost to, in no particular order:

Navy, Michigan, California ( Southern x2, and regular ), Oklahoma State, Georgia State, Toledo (by 24), Louisville (by 24), Miami (by 24), and Ohio State (by 25).

That's just about the definition of overrated.

I'd like to take this last moment in the year 2024 to send a hearty thank you to the University of Michigan and send a great big warm brewed cup of sit down and shut up to Paul Conference Homer Fanbaum.
