I think that should be applied to ANY of the polls.

No way to tell who is the best conference right now. Once the bowl games are done we can more accurately assess the situation.

The coaches poll is very inaccurate. If I am the President of a college and my head coach is WASTING time watching opponents they will not play this year to truly evaluate them I would fire him.

Polls are best left to the media, who do have time to watch all the games.

The coaches have not a clue as to who are the best teams in FBS football in exact order (which is what they do)

I agree but there's still plenty of regional bias involved. The system sucks which is why we need a playoff system put into place. Yeah, yeah beating a dead horse I know....

I agree with you, on both points, I would love to see a playoff system implemented.

You and all the big10 fans on here were bragging all pre season long that the b10 is back and on par with the SEC. And saying the SEC is down...blah blah blah. I waited 3 weeks into the season, and people agree with me, that the b10 is not #1 or #2.....they are 3-4 at best. As I said, people thought WAY too highly about the B10, and I said the B10 is improving. In my original post, I didnt chest thump the SEC, I mentioned flaws and about teams being overrated. Dont know what was wrong with my post.

centralbucksfan;489317 wrote:Again, my point is, its too early to determine this. Could be any of the obvious three IMO.

I guess it was too early during preseason to say the B10 is back or as good as the SEC, right?

True statement. LOTS of preseason "The Big 10 is back" chest thumping going on. Now that we're 3 full weeks into the season I also see an improved Big 10 but hardly ready to knock the SEC off the premier conference throne.

I don't know about too early in the preseason but we still have a lot of the preseason chest thumpers now telling us that despite the fact that we're 3 full weeks into the regular season, it's too early to say which conference is better. Amazing how that works.

Who plays for the national title? I say its SEC vs B12 at this point.

What? No way does anyone jump Ohio State if they go unbeaten.

That will be dissappointing then. How about Boise St. Will they get jumped if they go unbeaten?

And your a freaking liar who does nothing but stir the pot and exaggerate. If the above is true...then please post who said the Big Ten was on par. And please, you said "all", I want to see more then just one, two or three posts. I'll wait patiently.

you're entitled to your opinion, but why do you feel that a B12 team should jump over OSU? at this juncture of the season there aren't enough stats to support your statement, so besides being purely conjecture, I'd like to hear your reasoning.

But of course it emphasizes a flaw when it involves OSU getting to the title game. Of course, if the roles were reversed, the system would be perfect I am sure. OSU is ranked where they are for a reason.
The only flaw here, is your bias bs.

SEC-about 8 decent teams

Big 10-7 decent teams

Big 12-a few decent teams

Pac 10-a few decent teams

MWC-a couple decent teams

Big East-a couple decent teams

WAC-a couple decent teams (but they are both moving to the MWC in a year or two)

CUSA- one (Houston), maybe a second.

ACC- There all conference team could be competent

MAC- They aren't the Sunbelt

CAA (colonial Athletic-the conference that has Nova, JMU, UMass, Delaware, and several others). All of those teams are better than several 1-A schools.

Sunbelt-I'm serious. I bet if you put the sunbelt teams up against the CAA teams, the CAA would go at least 7-3, hell maybe even 10-0.

In order for a B12 team to get undefeated one of the 3 following teams have to go undefeated against eachother: Oklahoma, Texas, Nebraska. That is two tougher games than what OSU has to win this whole season imo. On top of that I believe there is more solid competition in the B12 outside those 3 teams. It definitely is early, but right now I feel those 3 teams are better than what the B10 has to offer outside of OSU. My View might be different after say week 7.

EDIT: I also wanted to add that I believe Miami is pretty overrated. I don't even see them playing for the conference championship, and I am willing to bet they lose to VT.

Do you even know who I root for? Have you ever seen me say I dislike OSU? Nice fail idiot. I root for no team, I just want to see good football, and a fair way to settle the national title. If any other big ten team was in OSU's shoes right now (ranked #2) I would still say there is a flaw in the system. The system will never be perfect unless there is a playoff, so don't try to claim I would think the system is perfect if it keeps OSU out of the NT game. At this point in the season i believe the B12 competition is a lot tougher than the B10 competition. Thus if a B12 team goes undefeated, I believe they should jump an undefeated OSU.

Are you trying to tell me if a team goes undefeated with tougher competition they don't deserve to go to the NT, because another team was ranked ahead of them in the PRESEASON rankings. If that is not a flaw in the system then I don't know what is. If OSU was in that position you would be whining like a little girl. Biased bs GTFO. You need to check up on your own bias bs.

You hate OSU's fans, said so on the 'Fanbases you Hate' thread on the Pro Forum...idiot.

Ohio State Football: Most delusional fans out there imo. There are a few i have met that are not delusional.

So you hate the fans enough to bias your opinion that a Big 12 team should leap frog the Bucks...gotcha.

edit: and as to the question...does anyone outside the SEC really give a fuck? I understand they took an asswhippin' in the Civil War but let it go man, let it go.

-I don't even need Miami to support my argument. So take them out then. Feel better?

-Yes, I hate their fans, still doesn't mean i hate OSU football. I hate colts fans as well, but I have no problem with their team... Idiot.

- You tried to make your point with the second quote, don't see the reason why you had to come out with the 3rd quote saying almost the exact same thing. If you wan't to think I am biased then fair enough to me. It's my opinion. Congrats on getting your panties in a bunch over an opinion. I didn't realize this was an OSU thread. This type of shit is exactly why I don't like OSU fans.

Edit: Just wanted to add I root for OSU wrestling all the time. So go ahead and believe i am biased.

Well you sure aren't helping the cause. LMAO dumbass.

Hating on what? I stated my opinion and I even said it was MY OPINION, and one guy cries because I wasn't supporting OSU, so instead of discussing why he disagrees, he says I am biased. Then you come in and cry, because my opinions don't support OSU. Nice FAIL. Let me know when Tressel's dick is out of your mouth.

What the fuck are you talking about? I simply pointed out why your opinion is what it is, you hate OSU fans because they're delusional.

Have you ever seen me say I dislike OSU?

Uh yeah...you started a fucking thread about it on the pro forum. Don't get all pissy because you got caught with your pants down. Your opinion on anything related to OSU is not at all relevant due to your self admitted hatred of its' fan base...in MY OPINION of course.

No i started a thread because its a FORUM for public opinion. The thread was about fan bases we hate, not "Why do we all hate OSU fans," or "I hate OSU fans." Nice job distorting the facts to play in your favor. That's fine my opinion on anything OSU related is not relevant. I am sure anything that does not support OSU is not considered relevant to you. Sounds like a 10 year old's approach to debates. I think you are the one who is at the kid's table.

Also, if its not relevant to you then STFU and don't respond.... Idiot.

Nope, anyone who can do so respectfully and without name calling and other BS is fine with me, you fail miserably on both counts. I don't give a rats ass who you support, we can all agree to disagree amicably, or not. Just don't go postal when someone calls you out on why your opinion is what it is because you flat out say you hate their fan base...

sorry to bruise your vag.
