Nebraska's season seems reminiscent to Kansas' the year before they won the Orange Bowl... lost to A&M after being up 18-7, had a big comeback against Nebraska just to lose in OT, blew a game against Baylor, etc.
Nebraska basically showed how the B1G is a bunch of frauds without actually beating anyone. [Reply]

Granted, this year I'm not sure who else is deserving of those spots.
Who in the SEC is actually great outside of Bama and Georgia?
Bama is the only consistently great team in the SEC, much like Ohio State is the only consistently great team in the B1G.
Honestly, Georgia is kind of having a rare season for them. Much like Michigan and Wisconsin in the B1G, they're usually good but not good enough to win it all.
It's not a conference thing, it's that there are a handful of really good recruiting schools and the rest put out a decent product every once in a while. [Reply]
