Teams that have won a football national championship since Florida, Georgia, Alabama, or LSU last won one:

I’d say it’s a pretty done deal—Midwest hasn’t rolled through the South like this since Sherman!

What ACC teams did the SEC take

None, and that’s part of the problem. B1G has added value and expanded footprint, SEC has not.

The Pac-12 was not a “small shitty conference.” It was a dominant force for decades in multiple sports that the B1G effectively raided and has paid off, unlike the SEC’s moves with the Big-12 and ACC. And Saban went to Bama because the REC built a moat around the talent, the way Warren Buffet invests in companies that already have a monopoly. He didn’t create the problem, but he took advantage of it to the point that everyone else finally did something about it!

Thanks, Bama. After illegally paying players for years, you opened this Pandora’s Box!

The Big Ten's dominance signals a major shift in the college sports landscape, as the conference has overtaken the SEC as the premier athletic powerhouse. This rise to prominence coincides with the new NIL era, where the Big Ten's deep-pocketed schools and large alumni bases have given them a recruiting advantage in attracting top talent across multiple sports.

quote:
The Big Ten Conference has emerged as the dominant force in college sports, sweeping the national championships in men's basketball, women's basketball, and football in 2026. This historic achievement marks the first time a single conference has held all three of these major titles simultaneously. The conference's success extends beyond the 'big three' sports, with additional championships in women's hockey, men's hockey, and potentially baseball.

UCLA far and away the best baseball team in the nation right now. Baseball RPI

He was clearly out. But if he had slid with his foot to the bag he would have been safe.
Jesus, I’m going to start charging for explaining shite to you kids. Do they even teach reading comprehension in the day cares anymore?

EPL is not going to let us get away—they will keep it nip and tuck until the final day. So if you’re not going to get the call anyway, or have it reversed on VAR, just keep your feet and try to get a shot off.
