Thank you for your service in humiliating this B1G loser.

It’s more about principle than fact, at this point. McMurphy is an SEC hating loser.

Yeah I guess I just don’t really care. There’s people out there that are Big 10 hating losers too. The fact of the matter is that those two conferences are clearly above the rest. The argument of which is “better” is kinda pointless are likely changes by year.

The op for example.

It’s difficult to make an argument for the SEC over the Big 10 at this point in time.

I disagree. B1G is top heavy, sure, but the SEC just broke its own record for NFL draft picks. 87 to 68 over the B1G. That’s a pretty substantial difference. I think the SEC is clearly better, top to bottom.

You’re certainly entitled to your opinion, but the top heavy argument you’re making now is the same thing SEC haters always said while the league was winning the championship every year. The SEC has been a shell of its former self the last few years and anyone with eyes can see it.

The difference being that the SEC was also the deepest from a talent perspective back then, too.

Let’s not conflate a marginal falloff from top heavy dominance with having been overtaken as a whole. That hasn’t happened. The B1G had 9 teams with fewer than 3 draft picks. The SEC had 3. We generally eat each other much more so than the B1G.

You are entitled to your own opinion but just know that you are basing it on draft picks instead of the results that are happening on the field. The Big 10 has won the past 3 national championships and has a 22-17 record against the SEC over the past 3 years.But if you want to say that the SEC is clearly better because the 15th best SEC team is better than the 15th best Big 10 team, go for it.

Yeah OP is living with noise canceling headphones on at the moment. The SEC has simply not performed well in the last couple years. The dominance reign is over for now

You posted this here and secrant. Why do you care this much about what he thinks? Serious question, not trying to be a dick.

I have nothing to do with On3. Just a preference.

I don’t believe anyone is arguing dominance, but I fully agree that top to bottom, the SEC is still a better football conference.

We can argue about return on investment, doing less with more, etc. However, the SEC objectively has more talent, which is quantifiable. It also has better coaching overall, which may be a bit subjective, but I don’t think many would disagree.

Bowl records in the modern playoff/portal era are meaningless, so I’m not sure why that stat continues to be posted.

McMurphy has spent years shitting on LSU and all other things SEC. He is an arrogant B1G homer, who believes he’s the smartest guy in the room everywhere he is.

And I’m petty.

Not really

The Big 10 is clearly better at the top over the last few years in football, but the SEC is deeper in the middle and bottom parts of the conference.

Do you agree with Kirby Smart’s claim that Nick Saban’s Alabama teams from the 2010s would beat the “dog” out of today’s SEC teams? It sounds like there’s more talent overall in the conference now, so I’m not sure how accurate Kirby’s claim is.
