The argument is normally about how the SEC is the best conference in CFB because they are so balanced "top to bottom".  In 2008 I don't believe this will be the case.

For 2008 you will have something like the following:

  • UGA= OSU, USC, Oklahoma, and > WVU, Va Tech
  • UF= Mizzou, and > Illinois, ASU, South Florida, Clemson
  • Auburn = Kansas, and > Whisky, Oregon, Connecticut, BC
  • LSU < Texas, and > Penn State, Oregon St, Cincy, Wake Forrest
  • UT < Texas Tech, and > Purdue, Cal, Rutgers, Miami

Now since I can't claim to know the middle and bottom half of the Big 12, Pac 10, and Big East, and ACC I will compare to the Big Ten in 2008.

  • Bama < Penn State
  • Miss. St < Michigan St
  • Arkansas = Iowa
  • SC = Indiana
  • UK = Northwestern
  • Vandy > Minnesota
  • Mississippi

So actually while I was comfortable saying the SEC was better at the TOP, I'm actually second guessing myself and looking at the Big 12's top half as possibly being better.  Interesting. 

The middle and bottom teams though will be no better than the Big 10 in 2008. 

Conference Verdict? 

SEC (not by much over the Big 12, and maybe not at all)

Big 12

Big 10

Big East

ACC

How long will it take Cassells to get off the topic of 2008, and BUMP'n talk about years past?

  • Vandy > Minnesota
  • Mississippi
I agree with top part.  However, some of these I disagree with:

PSU> Bama
Michigan State > Mississippi State
Arkansas> Iowa
SC = Indiana
UK > Northwestern
Vandy> Minnesota
Mississippi = Minnesota

That's my opinion anyhow, but good post.

Which do you disagree with?  Just curious.

Don't answer that.  I didn't look close enough to see that you already listed what you thought.  My bad.

Arkansas = Iowa


Come on Buckeye Todd.....Arkansas is better than Iowa! Look at the last two years.

Arkansas 18-9  66.7%

Iowa 12-13 48%

As a Buckeye fan who would you rather face? Iowa or the Razorbacks?
