BCS=Big Ten Gets Blown-Out, Again...

[THawk+]

Well another BCS game and another Big 10 team gets crushed...

Joke of a conference they are...It should be automatic by now that in a BCS bowl you either take the other team or nothing...

If you bet a Big 10 team in a BCS bowl you will be doing this...

They need to do away with auto bids. Cincinnati vs VT, and now this game.

Last 4 years 2-5, take out 99/00 they are 4-9... When you watch them play the talent difference is large. When they play a top tier team they are exposed, especially the last few years...

Michigan will be the only team that will be able to compete in the top tier if Rodriguez can recruit his type of player there, all other teams are good but not elite....

Hey dumbass, so why do you take out 99-00?

Think this shows which conference is superior in BCS games: take out the first 2 years and the Big 10 has half of their wins, that's 4 BCS wins in 8 years... That is weak for the supposed best conference in the country...

its clear the big 10 is weak and has been for about 4-5 years anyone who doesnt think so is delusional, i do think they deserve an auto bid still though

 

[letsgohoosiers]

I don't think anyone has ever claimed that the Big Ten is the best conference in the country.

 

[Mr.Cover123]

Unload Texas over OSU. Penn St. beat them on the road and Texas is just as good as USC.

 

[THawk+]

Mr college fan. you are so eloquent and present such valid facts...

Nice debating this subject with you.....Hope you hammered USC -.5 for the 2nd half it will be the easiest money all year...

 

[mcbuckeye]

there is no good reason to take out the 1st 2 years of bcs bowls. why don't we take out the last 2 years and look at the records? nobody is saying that the big 10 is the best conference in the country. but it is definitely competitive with the other majors.

 

[THawk+]

I don't think anyone has ever claimed that the Big Ten is the best conference in the country.

Look around and you see people debating it all the time....

 

[mcbuckeye]

please show me one refence in the media or even on a message board where somebody is claiming that the big 10 is the best conference in the country.

Texas is not as good as USC.

 

[letsgohoosiers]

No, I see people saying that the Big Ten is #4, #3, never once have I seen a poster on here say they are the #1 conference in the country this year. Find me a post by a poster on this forum to back up your statement.

 

[THawk+]

I take it out to make a point as you posted their 8-9 record is not so bad and it's not... When half your wins come ten years ago it is a big deal... It shows the Big ten is inferior and not as strong as they once were...

SEC is head and shoulders above all other conferences...

Not picking on the Big ten just making a point and stating facts if you get pissed off then so be it, the truth hurts...

 

[Mr.Cover123]

Texas is not as good as USC.

Defense isn't as good, but they have a better offense. OSU is alot worse than Penn St.

theres not a lot there is some, if i was a backer of this conference id be embarrassed by their bowl showings.

 

[mcbuckeye]

just don't manipulate the stats to prove your point. college football is cyclical. 2 bad years should not discredit a conference.
