A conversation popped up again in the thread regarding the week's upcoming schedule. It is a topic that is often debated that centers around conference strength.
Plain and simple, rank the Power 5 conferences as it stands now. Your opinion. No need for qualifiers as to why this, not that etc.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
1. SEC
2. PAC 12
3. Big 10
4. Big 12
5. ACC
1. SEC
2. Pac-12
3. Big 12
4. Big Ten
5. ACC
In all honesty I probably could have put the ACC at 4.
1. SEC
2. BIG 12
3. PAC 12
4. ACC
5. BIG 10
1. SEC
2. Pac-12
3. Big 12
4. B1G
5. ACC
I think 4&5 can be interchangeable.

I know why the B1G wanted Maryland, but they just added more horrible teams to their conference. Makes no sense.
interesting takes here.....
a lot of you have the big 10 ranked low...
even though 2 of the top 3 teams hail from the big 10.
SEC saw a lot of its top teams fall and doesn't really look as dominate as years before..
LSU Ole Miss and then?
Based on conference strength as a whole and basing it on teams that matter are totally different things though..
1.SEC (slight edge)
2. Pac 12
3. Big 10
4. Big 12
5. ACC

Why did they want Maryland?
It also makes no sense that the Big Ten never changed its name to Big 14 after Rutgers and Maryland joined a couple years ago.
I was thinking about starting a SEC vs. Pacific 12 thread. Who wins more often when they play each other, the SEC or Pacific 12 team?
1. SEC west
2. SEC East
3. The rest.

Lol at the sec east.

Impossible. That is saying Kentucky, Vandierbilt, Tennessee, Florida, Missouri, and South Carolina are all better than UCLA, Arizona State, Southern California, Stanford, and Oregon. Georgia is the only SEC East team that can compete with any of those Pacific 12 teams.

Even though I know you're joking, the SEC east is one of the worst divisions in college football.

My point exactly. When a division has only one good team, it does not belong in the discussion.
But how would you rank the SEC West this year - better or worse than the Pacific 12?

That was an example of sarcasm. :yes:

Those soft west coast teams don't play big boy SEC football. Yea the East is down but they are still SEC. Vanderbilt would go undefeated in the Pac12 and a team like Oregon would be lucky to win 3 games in the SEC.

We all know the national champion has been and will always be the SEC champion.

I mean, winning the SEC Title is
basically the same thing as winning the Superb Owl.

Dude... no they wouldn't. Please stop.
I'm a gator homer. And I know the SEC hype isn't just hype.
Vandy? Ky? Scar?
These teams are not good this year... they would struggle mightily against UCLA, USC, Oregon, Stanford
