huskermaniac Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 So which conference is better? There are some convincing arguments for both conferences.. Let's stack them up side by side. The best team in the Big 12 plays the best team in the SEC. Big 12 #2 vs. SEC #2. And so on. (I will match by rankings in the AP poll) #4 Oklahoma vs. #2 Georgia #6 Missouri vs. #5 Florida #10 Texas vs. #7 LSU #12 Texas Tech vs. #9 Auburn #14 Kansas vs. #13 Alabama Nebraska vs. #25 South Carolina Oklahoma State vs. Tennessee Colorado vs. Kentucky Iowa State vs. Arkansas Kansas State vs. Vanderbilt Texas A&M vs. Mississippi State Baylor vs. Ole Miss Which conference would win the majority of these games? I don't see any easy victories by the Big 12, while the SEC has some gimmies. I think Florida, Alabama, and the bottom four win easily. To me, this is the easiest way to see that the Big 12 still hasn't caught up to the SEC. But it sure would be fun to watch. Does anybody think the Big 12 could actually win this matchup?

UGAHusker Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 UGA wins (1 for SEC) Florida wins (2 for SEC) LSU wins easily (3 for SEC) Texas Tech wins (1 for Big XII) 'Bama wins (4 for SEC) Huskers win in a close one (2 for Big XII) Tennessee wins (5 for SEC) Colorado wins (3 for Big XII) Iowa State wins because Petrino is a loser(4 for Big XII) Kansas State wins (5 for Big XII) Miss St. wins (6 for SEC) Ole Miss wins (7 for SEC) Surprising that I live, work, and went to school in SEC country and I am calling this overall match-up a lot closer than any of the others!

VaTech/ACC = overrated. because Clemson got their @ss's handed to them on a silver platter. You can't say the Virginia Tech game was an upset because ECU is a good team. Quote Link to comment

Hell yes thats what i've been saying georgia is overrated ,only reason ppl talk about em is becuzz of their tail back lmao then they play the same team as they spanked in their bowl game and ppls still think that their a good team ,their a good team thoe just not a top 5 team.Id have to say maybe a top 10 team but not a top 5 team Quote Link to comment

Nebraska Colorado Texas Tech SEC WINS. LSU Mississippi St. Ole Miss All the other games are 50/50. Makes the big 12 better. Very interesting that 6 teams in the SEC rank in the top 25 and 5 teams rank for the Big 12. My guess is that by the end of the year the Big 12 will have 6 teams by the end of the year and SEC will have 5. Nebraska will be the addition. Subtract South Carolina. Quote Link to comment
Chef K Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Let's see. the SEC is 11-11 against the the Big-Ten in it's last 22 bowl games. I dare say that the Big-XII is tougher than the Big Ten. Quote Link to comment
huskerjack23 Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 i think we can all agree that tennessee was way overrated. and kudos to UCLA. gotta love college football. Quote Link to comment

UGA loses in the regular season but wins for the National Title against OK Bama better bring their A game because Mangino is quite possibly the best coach in the country. Kansas State will finish bottom of the big 12 and would loose to Vanderbilt. Other than those three... Quote Link to comment
Ganz4Heisman Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 I think it would be an even 6-6 with OK, Texas, KU, Neb, ISU and Ksu all winning their games Quote Link to comment
Vuren Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 #4 Oklahoma vs. #2 Georgia Georgia #6 Missouri vs. #5 Florida Florida #10 Texas vs. #7 LSU As of right now...LSU later in the year Texas maybe. #12 Texas Tech vs. #9 Auburn Auburn #14 Kansas vs. #13 Alabama Bama Nebraska vs. #25 South Carolina oo...nebraska, south carolina looked terrible last week. especially against that cummy NC State Oklahoma State vs. Tennessee OSU Colorado vs. Kentucky KU Iowa State vs. Arkansas Ark Kansas State vs. Vanderbilt Vandy in a big win Texas A&M vs. Mississippi State MSU Baylor vs. Ole Miss Ole Miss Quote Link to comment

OU Tough one, IDK about Florida yet this year. I say Mizzou although IDk after that illinois game. would be a good one I'll take Texas, maybe McCoy will put it together again this year, I think they will be better again. not sold on Tech yet, so Auburn Bama they looked really good NU I'm liking what i see and not that impressed with Spurrier's team OSU could be that UCLA will magically be good this year, but I'm thinking Tennessee wasn't that good instead. No more Woodson, but I'm not sold on Hawkins either, this one is a draw for me, I'll go with Kentucky Petrino might have been a bad move, but Ark should have way more talent than ISU KSUcks...its Vanderbilt... Miss State is probly a bit better than Ark State, lol Ole Miss its funny that its the 'wild rebel' offense now, but whatever its called Baylor won't stop it. thats 6 B12 and 6 SEC IMHO, but really you would have to weight the top games more than the bottom games, too. Thing is the way teams match up is weird. Like, i might take Kansas against Auburn, but not against Alabama, and Mizzou might matchup better with LSU or Georgia or w/e Quote Link to comment
