So how bad is the Big Ten??

[itchypickle]

You really think 2 from Big 12?

I do. UCLA struggled both games so far, almost lost to Memphis in LA last night. And we know the virginia outcome, lucky to get turnovers or else would have lost opening weekend. So no way they deserve to be 11 for long. Stanford's ugly loss hurts them for the Pac12 future this season.

Big 12 - Baylor looks insane, with and without Petty who sat out for the back injury. They haven't met a quality competitor yet but just technique and skill sets....only OU and MAYBE an Ames upset will derail them. OU would be other team in, think they'll lose at least once other than the possible Baylor game so they would be the second in. We'll see how they fair against the upstart Tennessee Vols next week and will know more going forward. K State looked horrible vs Iowa State yesterday so their stock has dropped in my book...few weeks ago would have given them a decent shot of knocking off Auburn in Manhattan coming up but no way in hell they do that playing like they did yesterday. Texas Tech, watched them against UTEP last night, long way to go....and OK State is too young. So Baylor and OU the class of the league barring major injury etc.

Its possible but if it comes down to say a 1 loss Baylor or an SEC or Pac 12 team going with same record. I think Baylor or even OU loses out on strength of schedule

Unless Richt botches one due to oversight and looking ahead, Georgia is a sure undefeated squad heading into the SEC championship game but thats where it will get messy for the SEC this season, I'm proudly the biggest SEC and Bama homer on the board...that being said, the SEC West is so strong it will break the conference in the playoff picture this year. 2 loss team looks likely so would be ousted by one of those Big 12 teams. No way Auburn pulls it off again with their gauntlet of a schedule....the LSU/Bama game will be huge as always but this is the season thats been building for several years, Miss St or Ole Miss WILL knock off one of the A&Ms, LSU's Bama's or Auburns of the toughest division in sports and the football world will be up in arms over it. LSU gets them both in Death Valley which is a plus in their box....and Bama travels to Oxford in a couple weeks but plenty of time to prep and we get the Bulldogs in T Town late so that helps our cause. Both Miss's have given the games away in last two seasons so its happening this year.

I don't understand the point of this thread. Who in their right mind thinks the Big ten is good at football?

[STAX]

sure pal that will happen

not saying they will lose 4-5 games tool.... saying their are 4-5 team capable of beating them. They will lose at least 2 though
