What proof is there that the SEC is better than any other conference? The Big 10 in particular?

Don’t get me wrong, as I love the SEC. After the Big 10, I watch the Big 12 & SEC very closely. In fact it’s because of this that I am having a hard time figuring out where all this “were the best” and you stink stuff comes from! I know we can all be biased & prone to hyperbole, if not closed mindedness. The facts however suggest the 2 leagues are traditionally very close form year to year. The biggest folly is this “speed” thing. The Big 10 looked miserable this year at times but I knew UM would beat UF as they have dominated the SEC. Something like 36-18 all time! I honestly thought that Wiscy would beat Tenn, & they may have if it weren’t for 4 TO’s. But it was above all else an “even” game. Here are some tidbits: The SEC has 291 NFLers-12 teams while the Big 10 has 267-11. The talent levels are comparable! The Big 10 is 13-13 in bowls vs the SEC lately & and has an all-time wining record vs SEC. In fact the Big 10 is the ONLY conference to have an all-time winning record vs all other BCS leagues! 2 very good conf but only a homer sans facts could clearly claim superiority! I would guess that if you took 6 teams from the SEC & 6 from the Big 10 & swap them you’d find that they all wash out about the same. Very good, very similar leagues that produce lots of NFL talent from top to bottom!
