Funny, Dodd indicates that the Big Ten is so soft and that the SEC is so difficult and deep. Is that why the Big Ten and SEC are 9-9 against each other in bowl games over the last 5 years (and the Big Ten is actually 14-13 in head to head in the BCS era)? I'll give the SEC their due on beating OSU the last 2 years for the title, but not on overall depth being that superior. If the SEC is so deep, why did Michigan beat Florida despite turning the ball over 4 times? And why has a "second-rate" Big Ten team like Wisconsin gone 2-1 the last 3 years against SEC in their bowl games?

Care to explain this one, Gadawgs? Or is it Jethro?

What did Ohio State do to Michigan? What Is your record in conference championship games? What small school dominated Michigan on their home field(Applacian State). Your out of conference schedules are almost as weak as your defenses. I was at the outback bowl where your rested team played great until the second half. I would love to switch schedules with any of your big ten schools. To much cheese and brauts clog the veins in your head. If you do not get beat up during the year and you have weak competion it stands to reason you should win most of your bowl games. Your two best teams get to rest and not beat on each other for a conference championship and you save a loss and keep more people healthy. Florida was not playing for anything and Michigan was playing for their coaches honor who has lost to who every year. Yeah even a Jethro knows how bad the dominate team in the Big Ten every year looks like a high school team versus the SEC. Explain Ohio State 0-9 against the SEC. Just remember Michigan was not playing Georgia, LSU, Tenn, Auburn, or the other teams who also beat Florida last year and finished with better records. Michigan finished in probably the top of the pack in a very weak an overrated conference last year and every year. Ohio State plays Youngstown State, Akron, Kent State and gets great stats and has maybe Michigan and Wisc. as poor tests. If they lose to USC they still have very little chance of losing again. That is no parity top to bottom. When has Michigan and Wisconsin dominated Ohio State last?  If you could give Georgia those wins and they had the records you top tier teams have against the rest of the Big Ten and we did not have to play against the other Champion in the SEC there would be an even a bigger gap in how badly you were dominated. You must be soaking your brauts in moonshine. Pray Georgia does not get through their hard conference and championship with one loss or none. Ohio State will see even a deeper and far quicker team with balance and depth. These guys love playing the grannies you call a schedule. Who has Wisconsin scheduled non-conference this year? I will pass the Jethro thing on to the team when i see them. I hope we see you again I enjoyed the wins in Tampa and I will enjoy the Big Ten having the same dominate teams ranked again. It is so fun laughing at the poor weak minded sports writers who love Ohio State.
