OSU, weakest IN-Conference schedule in the nation

Then why is the record of the SEC against the Big 10 only 5-4 against over the past two years? That's the problem with SEC fans. If the number don't support them, they say stuff like "we all know that's not true."

Well if it's not true, in the last two years

How did Michigan beat Florida and Vandy?

How did Wisconsin Beat Arkansas?

How did Penn State beat Tennessee?

How can all those things be true if Big 10 teams aren't equal to SEC teams? The games, whether the Big 10 won or lost, have all been competitive. The SEC could have won or lost most of those games. Personally I don't see a difference. When Tennessee played Penn State and lost, they competed. They didn't look like the didn't belong. This year when Wisconsin lost, they were in the game till the last minute, they didn't look like they didn't belong. It's sad for someone to have to point it out to SEC fans, but an interlocking schedule played between Big 10 schools and SEC schools probably wouldn't change anything. If you guys honestly think Kentucky is better than Purdue you are seriously warped. I'm beginning to think all SEC fans are trying to compensate for small penises, what happened? The enlargement pills didn't work? Maybe you need to try the vacuum pump.

Lol, Florida is not my "beloved" SEC team. But yes, most of those players were recruited by Zook. The only difference is that Urban Meyer knew how to coach his players; Zook didn't.

you do have to admit he did a great job coaching the illini last yr and I don't think the upcoming yrs. will be any different. now will they win a championship anytime soon..probably not but after last yr they should only continue to get better.

Sorry to brake it out, but I don't think any Zook coached team will have a shot at the national championship unless they have the best coaches at each position around him. I do see him making Illinois a consistent 8-4 or 9-3 team though, mostly what he did to Florida but FLorida fans expect more than that.

Also Buckdaddy if i spelled that right you have to admit, Michigan/ Vandy and Wisconsin/ Arkansas weren't the most fair matches.

Gator93 that's totally fine for illinois at this point after the horrible program they have had the past decade...last yr was a nice change for them and there fans. For the illini program its all about baby steps at this point but i wouldnt count them out in the future.

I do understand that florida fans expect more look at how good your programs has always been. I do think that given another yr or 2 zook could have won them the national title tho.
