you just cant run out and say a conference is better or worse than another based on a couple of games. doesnt make sense.
Of course you can't. SEC wins or losses just tend to inspire those sort of nonsense threads because a lot of their fans are so vocal and vehement in believing that conference is head-and-shoulders better than any other. Sometimes the threads stay good-natured, and they can be kind of fun then, but unfortunately they usually degenerate into name-calling and generalizations.
From 2003-2006 the Big 12 only had OU/Texas, and both were power houses in 2004 only. So my point is that most years they were like the Big 10 in that they had 1 contender, and then a big drop off. 2004 wasn't like that, they had 2, but the rest of the time whoever won the RRS would win the conference.Maybe it's just cuz I'm from the BIG XII but I always saw TX and OKLAH as powerhouses. Then you got the good ol HUSKERS that blew ass for a while. OKST had a few years where their OFFENSE wasn't bad.
BIG 10 has... an always overrated WISCY TEAM (sorry, no disrespect--it's just how i see them). Iowa is like the HUSKERS. INDIANA is like IOWA STATE. OHIO STATE is a version of TEXAS but take off a little meat. I still think BIG XII has had an edge overall ahead of BIG X. We rarely have a team that is clearly dominant (usually it's 2 teams and sometimes 3) whereas in the BIG X I seem to favor a team big time in the conference and everyone else just wallows around watching.
