Where can I find Big 10 vs. SEC comparison?

• Ankle Breaker

  

  Specifically looking for records in BCS bowl games over the past 10 years or so. Any help is appreciated. I once saw it over on that other site.
• enigmaax

  For just BCS bowl records/info:
  
  http://www.bcsfootball.org/bcsfb/alltime
  
  If you go a couple different places on that site it'll have all the results, year-by-year, etc.

  Don't have the records in front of me but the difference has not been that great (a couple wins in favor of the SEC if my memory is correct).
  
  That's pretty good considering almost all the SEC-Big Ten matchups seem to occur on SEC home fields or close to it.

  10 years ago is vastly different than today.

  Head-to-head, I think is 3-1 SEC. I may have overlooked some, but at quick glance (year is the actual date of game, not the season):
  
  Michigan over Alabama - 2000 Orange
  LSU over Illinois - 2002 Sugar
  Florida over Ohio State - 2007 Championship
  LSU over Ohio State - 2008 Championship

  The Big 10 is better, problem solved.

  Didn't Iowa and LSU play a few years back? I think Iowa won on a hail mary.. may not have been a BCS game though.

  LSU over Illinois - 2002 Sugar

  This is a very selective list. As noted, the Big Ten has fared pretty well against the SEC in all bowls during the past decade or so.
  
  It's only Ohio State that has had problems, and almost all of that has been on Cooper and Tressel.
  
  The stats from Cleveland Buck were the ones I had remembered seeing.
• Azubuike24

  

  The Big Ten has played the SEC very tough in bowl games and if you take the right time frame, have actually had a winning record in bowl games. The numbers really start to turn in favor of the SEC over the past 5 years or so, and obviously with the conference winning 4 of the last 6 BCS national championships and going for a 5th in a month makes the dominance really shine through.
  
  The most impressive stat however is 5 BCS national titles in 11 years as a conference, a 12-5 overall record in BCS games and a chance to add another title and 2 BCS wins this year. Only the Pac 10 (9-4) and the Big East (6-5) have winning records in BCS games. The Big 10 on the other hand has the most appearances in BCS history (21 in 11 years) but also the 2nd worst winning percentage (8-11, .421), only ahead of the pathetic (2-9, .182) ACC. It also doesn't help that since Ohio State's national title, the Big 10 is 3-8 in BCS games.

  The Big Ten is 7-6 vs. the SEC in bowl games over the past 5 years. You can look at the numbers and take whatever time frame you want and at no point does the SEC dominate the Big Ten in bowls. Sometime the Big Ten is up a game, sometime the SEC is up a game.
  
  The SEC BCS bowl numbers are impressive. The Big Ten is hurt that they have lost their last 6. They were 8-5 until then. It also doesn't help that they had to play USC every year when USC would have crushed almost any team in the country, SEC included, most of those years.

  The reason that list was selective was because the OP asked for this:
  "Big 10 vs. SEC comparison"
  "Specifically looking for records in BCS bowl games over the past 10 years or so."
  
  Please note that I did not opine on the results, simply offered what the poster asked for (including the link where he could find other information such as overall records, etc.).

  What? No love for the Mountain West? They have the best win % (I know, I know it's only 2 games). But it kind of makes you laugh when people say that the MTN West doesn't belong in the BCS games. The 2 chances they've gotten, they've taken advantage of...

  Thanks Cleveland Buck. Just what I was looking for.
