Going by the quote here...
...why doesn't a school like Wisconsin, which is now going to their third consecutive Rose Bowl, have better facilities? IIRC Big Ten schools take in more money than their SEC counterparts.

Wisconsin's relatively modest facilities might also have been an issue for Bielema – a problem he will not encounter at Arkansas.

That's one of 14 teams. How do the rest compare?

Big Ten schools also fund more varsity sports than their SEC counterparts. For instance, Ohio State has 36 varsity sports. Alabama has 17.
Oh, and Ohio State's football facilities are ridiculous.

Man i hate the CC board. So many rumors its basically pointless to check it for any info so i end up way behind on any of the actual things that happen.
I mean Arkansas has hired like 5 head coaches this week according to that board

They get more money from their TV contract, but outside Ohio St, Michigan, and Penn St (at least pre scandal), how many have the alumni/booster support financially that SEC schools have?

Most Big Ten schools have pretty nice facilities, especially OSU, Michigan, Nebraska and Penn State.
Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan State have at least moderate facilities.
The rest are fairly unimpressive though.

There are some pretty shitty facilities at SEC schools as well. It's all relative.
