Quote:and almost all of those bowls are between an SEC team that finished lower in standings than the Big 10 team

 

Can you read my premise?

 

Top of the SEC > Top of Big 10 > Middle of SEC > Middle of Big 10 > Bottom of SEC > Bottom of Big 10.

 

2013 Big Ten vs SEC Bowl Games (conference record)

Wisconsin (6-2) vs South Carolina (6-2)

Nebraska (5-3) vs Georgia (5-3)

Iowa (5-3) vs LSU (5-3)

 

2012

Michigan (6-2) vs South Carolina (6-2)

Northwestern (5-3) vs Miss St. (4-4)

Nebraska (7-1) vs Georgia (7-1)

 

2011

Ohio St. (3-5) vs Florida (3-5)

Nebraska (5-3) vs South Carolina (6-2)

Michigan St. (7-1) vs Georgia (7-1)

 

 

 

The SEC is 6-3 in those games, predictably so. It supports my premise that:

Top of the SEC > Top of Big 10 > Middle of SEC > Middle of Big 10 > Bottom of SEC > Bottom of Big 10.
