re: Penn State 2026 slate is a Group of 5 Schedule

All of that is true and it has absolutely nothing to do with who the best team Is in a given year.

No, but it shows the difference in depth between the conferences which makes for a much easier or more difficult conference schedule over a long period of time. Most B1G teams will only play 2 maybe 3 tough conference opponents a year while SEC teams are probably playing double that

This shite means nothing. Tulane humiliated Northwestern, Northwestern beat PSU. Tulane got humiliated by Ole Miss. comparing random one off games is a Hilarious way to measure a team.

You don’t play games over a long period of time you play them in a given season and the quality of teams varies, widely in some cases from year to year.

You are looking at it totally over time, but that’s not how schedules work Especially with expanded conferences. Texas last year played only 1 team that finished in the top half of the SEC, you think Ohio State can’t handle that? UGA played the next 4 teams in the SWC standings and went 7-2 including the SECCG. Even with in the conference the relative strength differs.

But still none of that matters when discussing who the best team in a given year.

It was in reply to a B10 guy saying SEC fans are circle jerking remembering all their BCS titles. Which is just ridiculous. The past two years are cuasing revisionist history for some people.

---

A) he’s not wrong
B) it looks like he was responding to a post (totally not a circle jerk) rattling off the number of teams that have won a title since the BCS started, so what history is being revised? Still don’t see where he claimed the B1G was a playoff dynasty.

I never said otherwise. I was replying to a comment in regards to the past championships,

And all he said was the SEC hasn’t played for the title which you acknowledge as fact so not sure what you’re point is.

Yeah, I’m sure if Ohio state had trouble with a .500 G5 who had 50 point Ls to other G5 school on their resume, you’d say the same. Washington state is a bad football team with no resources.

Penn state is terrible. Good chance they don’t get to 6-6. They just fired their coach with a $50MM buyout if you don’t believe me.

and no matter what, iowa, wisconsin, minnesota, michigan state, etc. will never win a national championship... and i didn't even mention the worst programs in the conference there is still a very wide gap between the sec and the big ten

Indiana has a shot this year. I think those old days are gone. The new era involves wealthy men who treat these programs like soccer clubs, except their labor is all seasonal.

Time will tell who is willing to pay.

He’s making $8M and they’ll pay him $15 to keep him if he has another run.

All these programs have super rich fans. Starting to see more and more get involved to fuel NIL. Rev sharing agreements going to players—The Big ten and SEC schools will all be able to dish out substantial payrolls.
