B1G has 2 rose bowl wins since 2000

There is no doubt the big 10 is only good in their own minds.

Crazy that a coach like Beliema made three in a row at one point in that conference.

Makes sense. They have sucked outside of Osu, and when osu gets in the playoff/championship game then some second tier team gets promoted to Rose. Blame the Rose bowl for clinging to their tradition of having to matchup a pac10 and big 10 instead of looking for the best matchup.

They sucked in the 70's and 80's too, brief resite in the 90's but THAT was the aberration.

The've lost 11 of them in that time. Over half of them come from Lloyd Carr and Bret Bielema.

But the B1G won 7 of the 8 right before that. It's cyclical.

From 2000-present the B1G has faced perhaps literally the greatest Oregon and Stanford teams ever, as well as Pete Carroll's best USC teams.

And the B1G did not play in the Rose Bowl 4 times since 2000. One national playoff, two national championships, and one random Oklahoma invite.

Another interesting fact:

B1G has 2 Rose Bowl wins since 2000
The B12 has 3 Rose Bowl wins since 2000
Texas has 2 Rose Bowl wins since 2000

and it must snow 7 feet with winds 20-25 knots, gusting to 35.

Well they've lost to some really good teams. Every team they've lost to in a Rose Bowl since 2000 came into the game ranked into the top 10. Still, a 2-11 record is completely inexcusable.

Thanks for telling is which two.
