    the big ten fans just can't accept that this year the SEC is simply head and shoulders above them

    Wisconsin was the champs. State got lucky all year. They should have 3 losses

    How was the winner determined? Wasn't there a tie?

    3 way tie, since Wisconsin SOS was harder they were the winners. Next year there will be a championship game.

    That was only for the rose bowl spot, right (the SOS tie-breaker)? Don't they all 3 actually get to claim the championship for 2010-2011?

    They all get to claim it. But those who go to the rose bowl are the champs in the world of the big ten. To any big ten fan Wisconsin are the champs.

    With this being said...all I have heard all year was what a down year it was for the SEC...not just from this board, but all over. Could simply be the fact really good teams are beating really good teams. 2 of Bama's loses are playing in BCS games.

    Bama just put an ass-whoopin' on the Big Ten champs.

    That was embarrassing.

    The B1G Ten sure did help out the SEC's bowl record today.

    Only for the organization, and their recruiting.

    For the casual fan, do you really let it affect you that much?

    Where do you get that it "affects" me? I'm neither a Big Ten or a MSU fan.

    It affected me as much as it affected me when the octo-mom did her national tv interview. I was embarrassed for her as much as I was embarrassed, today, for MSU fans.

    How many threads have you started about Octo Mom?

    Any big ten guy knew MSU was going to get killed today, they skated by all year on luck. IF they would have played OSU they would have lost.

    Since you have used embarrassed 16 times in this thread...who really cares? Living in IL. for 25 years of my life, we are used to this sort of crap. Anybody in their right mind can not compare Big 10 football to any other conference. It's pretty comparable to elementary math.

    The "you" reference was made as a generalization, Jeff.

    Nice cheap shot, Jeff. No, I was completely sober when I was trying to explain to you that after I have followed Big Ten football for over 25 years that we are used to this sort of performance. I assumed everyone else in the nation was aware of it also. I just couldn't understand why you were shocked. Whatever. I didn't expect you to get it and figured you would reply with some smart ass comment. Carry on.

    Shocked? At what? I still don't know what you're talking about.
