but on the other hand, those conferences do have more top-talent, well-coached, well-performing teams than the B12 does. BYU would not be close to 9-1 with this team playing an SEC schedule. Maybe they'd have a shot at doing it in the B1G if they had a schedule like Indiana's, but I don't think the offense would be enough. While not every argument about conference strength is accurate, the SEC and B12 have a right to acknowledge they're tougher conferences just like the B12 has the same right to acknowledge they're better than the MWC and the MAC.
