This is what we can’t deny, with all of us staring directly into our faces. Feel it, feel it, believe it.
The Big Ten is just as boogeyman as the SEC. Two villains, one heartbeat.
For a long time, the Big Ten, the SEC’s younger brother, has been around for years along with other oppressed massacres in college football. It was the world of the SEC and living in it meant complaining about it.
But see who’s all growing.
Less than three years later, the Big Ten has carried out a stunning alliance of the ACC and Pac-12 ‘alignment, SEC, Pac-12 takedowns and signatures of the biggest media rights deal in history. did. College sports.
And it won the last two national football championships.
The Big Ten makes more money than the SEC. The Big Ten currently plays better football than the SEC.
Is Boogieman exactly here?
The SEC had 11 straight wins of the first 20 in the 2000s before Michigan and Ohio won consecutive national titles?
The SEC (Super Bowl Champion Eagles, who produce more players each year on the NFL roster, had 20 players on the SEC team’s active roster, but dominates the NFL draft every spring?
Did the SEC, which opened up heavyweight weapons in Texas and Oklahoma, guided the era of super conferences when they decided to leave the Big 12?
Or did the Big Ten, who left for the SEC in response to Texas and Oklahoma, try to fold Southern California and Notre Dame before Notre Dame declined and Big Ten settled in UCLA?

The same Big Ten agreed to the “alliance” of the ACC and PAC-12 “alliance” a year ago, is it clear to what the SEC looks like a mega power grab when they added Texas and Oklahoma? With this response, .
The same Big Ten that later formed “alliance” partners when they added Southern California and UCLA, making the Pac-12 unstable. That, of course, leaves the rest of the Pac-12 on the seek cover and knows this will shock you – Big Ten is sitting, waiting for what he wanted (and needed) from the pack – 12 Come to them. The rate has been reduced.
Added four prominent TV properties for the Pac-12 (USC, UCLA, Oregon, Washington) to land a worthless media rights deal of over $1 billion per season for the new 18-team superconference The same Big Ten as.
The same Big Ten, declared in November 2023 at the heart of the college football season, has said that over the years, the actions from the Michigan football team regarding illegal future scouting of its opponents, “an unfair competitive advantage.” It brought about: the integrity of competition.”
Still, they allowed Michigan to win the Big Ten and be eligible to play in the college football playoffs. And if Michigan doesn’t win the Big Ten’s first national title since 2014, Sonofagun is only the third since 2002.
It’s contagious for everyone to win. It doesn’t matter how you get there. The most important thing is to get there.
The Big Ten had two teams in the CFP semi-finals and four teams in the 12-team tournament. One of these teams, Indiana, is the worst power conference program in college football history, but defeated one team with a victory record (Michigan) and lost to the other teams who played in victory record. I found my way to (Ohio).
He was then blown away by CFP by Notre Dame. – It was a record-setting team.
These breaks do not occur at Big Ten schools. They are designated Sec Boogeyman.
But as the wise wise man once said, the rising tide lifts all the boats. That or a new, lively cutthroat attitude changes perceptions of what to do.
I couldn’t defeat EM.
So why not start acting like a big, bad second?
Take yours, what you want. Don’t apologise, don’t ask for forgiveness. Eat what you kill.
With the 2025 season underway, Pay for Play is fully empowered, and Big Ten and Sec move further away from the rest of the sport, the story explains the hierarchy.
Can a loaded Pen State finally win everything? How will Ohio State reload with a new quarterback and a new coordinator?
Will Georgia be Georgia again, or will Alabama become Alabama again? Has Texas finally really returned?
Feel that. Feel that. Trust me.
The Big Ten is now as boogeyman as the SEC.
