Wisconsin is selling out to stop the run. At some point Arkansas has to complete some passes.

Here's how I would rank the teams in the Big 10/SEC.

1. Ohio State (Big 10)
2. Michigan (Big 10)
3. Florida (SEC)
4. LSU (SEC)
5. Wisconsin (Big 10)
6. Arkansas (SEC)
7. Auburn (SEC)
8. Penn State (Big 10)
9. Tennessee (SEC)
10. Georgia (SEC)
11. Kentucky (SEC)
12. Minnesota (Big 10)
13. Purdue (Big 10)
14. South Carolina (SEC)
15. Iowa (Big 10)
16. Alabama (SEC)
17. Ole Miss (SEC)
18. Indiana (Big 10)
19. Michigan State (Big 10)
20. Vanderbilt (SEC)
21. Mississippi State (SEC)
22. Northwestern (Big 10)
23. Illinois (Big 10)

There's a lot of ways you can look at this. Notably, the Big 10 has the best two teams. And three of the best five. They each have four of the top eight, but the SEC has seven of the best eleven. Nothing much to note in the rest except that the Big 10 has the two biggest jokes of teams with Northwestern and Illinois.

If Wisconsin, Michigan, and OSU all win, the big 10 will likely have the 1, 2 and 4 teams, and their 4th best team beat a highly regarded SEC team. I dont care about depth at that point, thats the best conference.

LSU has done nothing to merit the kind of praise and hype they get. They managed 13 points combined versus Florida and Auburn. They impressively blew out their other six crappy opponents, before beating Tennessee by 4. A standard win versus Alabama and then they barely beat Ole Miss by 3. They manage a 5 point win versus Arkansas, their best victory of the season, and somehow end up ranked 4th.

Now Notre Dame is even more overrated, so LSU will win and hold onto it's ranking, but LSU is not better than OSU or Michigan and LSU versus Wisconsin would be a fun game to watch. I was really hoping Arkansas would win the SEC Championship so LSU would get stuck with the Capital One bowl instead.

Props to Wisconsin's defense but Arky's offense looks just horrid on any passing plays + Mustain is bad.

South Carolina would be td+favorite verse Purdue and Minny


LSU is the best team and should be 1a and 1b with Ohio State

This Wisconsin-Ark game is setting offensive football back 50 years. Ugly is not the word.
