One could argue the ACC is better at the top and therefore a better conference

the problem is SMU didn’t play any of those teams.

SMU coach with a big shot at the Big 12:

Hey coach, who'd you lose against?

at SMU no less

Let's see. SMU win percentage versus Big 12 Christian schools .00000000000000000

SMU is 1-1 vs Big XII

But that will make my argument look bad. Thanks a lot! Fixed

Your first place teams loses at home to the 3rd place teams of another conferenc

I think it is a shot against the Big 10. He was 0-1 vs the Big 12.

1-1 vs big 12. They demolished TCU

Played 1 fewer conference games vs P4. Meh.

But played 2 P4 from Big12 OOC, so fairly equal schedule

Yeah more of a commentary on the ACC and SEC as a whole.

This year or traditionally?

How can you say they're better at the top when BYU, #3 in B12, beat them at home?

Soupie

Note: BYU is not in 3rd place in Big12. We are tied for 1st.

According to reputation, or according to results?

The word unquestionably is the real issue here. Like there's no reputable metric

“Disingenuous” is a flaccid way of putting it…

The ACC has more teams near the top of the U.S. map than the Big12...

Without a blue blood, the Big 12 has a difficult job convincing those

Everyman

Dec 6, 10:54am

Keep saying this. B12 is punished this year due to polls being so horribly wrong at start of season.

Soupie

BYU was getting all kinds of love at #6 until it lost to 3-6 Kansas at home

reddead

Dec 6, 12:05pm

Did you only read half my post? Any slip ups are magnified. Other ranked teams have slip & fall

Soupie

Dec 6, 12:52pm

Simple. BYU lost twice (once to a very bad team) at the end of the year

reddead

Dec 6, 1:03pm

Without a defined criteria, we could do this all day. Fact is, "brand" schools also have 2+ losses

Soupie

Dec 6, 1:05pm

I haven't heard anyone outside the Big XII argue that the Big XII got a raw deal

reddead

Dec 6, 1:12pm

LOL. You're not paying attention and I'm not your research assistant.

Soupie

Dec 6, 1:17pm

And you need to learn to separate biased homers in your echo chamber from those

Only reason your conference is so called better is because of one team the last

Blue for Life

Notre Dame only has 1 non double digit win season in the last 8(9-4)

PHXSUNS31

ND is also only partially ACC. Doesn't discount ACC having only Clemson

NYC and Japan

Dec 6, 1:04pm

Small sample size so doesn’t really say much, but they did have a better OOC W-L

PHXSUNS31

Dec 6, 11:39am

If they were the top 3 conference in America then SMU would have beat byu.

The so called shot is that SEC and B12 champs all have conf. losses. It not so

momowagon

Once his conference is eaten by the sec and big 10, he will shut up.

here's to hoping

Dec 6, 12:48pm

Top 3? They didn't go 8-0 in the Big12...
