Not sure where you’ve been, but it is going to happen along with the B10 doing the same thing sooner or later.

This whole Save College Sports Bill wasn’t supported by either conference and is set up to hurt/restrict both conferences and they’ve expressed that.

In case folks don’t understand who runs college sports now, look at the B10 telling Michigan they can’t play Duke on Amazon. It’s the networks that pay the B10 making that decision.

If the SEC spent as much time trying to improve as they did pissing and moaning, maybe they wouldn't be the second best conference

It's annoying that even the third tier, bottom feeder teams like SCar feel the need to trash talk us. They were calling us "Syracuse" before playing us and then end up losing to us

Jim Delaney must be laughing his azz off. IMHO, the sec (no caps no longer, small letters to match the smallness of the conference) is in the review mirror and fast fading. I hope our coaches and ADs talk only about the B1G, its member institutions, and its status as the premier conference in the good ole USA!

scUM................they have earned that moniker by their daily dealings in the underbelly of gutteral actions and ploy's to win at all costs and doing it in such asinine ways to be easily caught in their no class scenario's.........

mr. coward and mr. harbought are perfect examples of NOT leaders of young men.......they really really aren't............

UNC put GM Mike Lombardi on paid leave. I, for one, am shocked his tenure hasn't been a roaring success... I wonder what insane thing he did to finally get BB to pull the plug.

Saban probably believes what he's saying, or at least that it's his job to say it, given his boss's conflict of interest with the SEC. And the SEC has a decent argument it's got better depth at the bottom. They're one of the two best conferences for sure. But the post season has always been where braggin rights are settled, and after a long illustrious run, they're are on the wrong side of it now 3 years running.

no one really cares how the bowl INELIGIBLE teams from the two conferences would do against each other and everyone knows that .

what matters is how teams 1-12 do . I think we undoubtedly hold our own vs them

roster creation rules are basically equal now

Agree 100% really shows how much nil support they have to be able to win 2 national championship under his moronic leadership

We found damning issues in our report, so as punishment, please stay on to the end of the year, accept this huge payout, here's your retirement, and we'll pay your legal fees.

So take that Mr. Manuel!! And sorry about the accountability --we have no choice.

Wasn’t sure where to put this but the Athletic/ NYT put an update to their P4 football program valuations if they ever went private. Also not sure if there is a paywall (I subscribe to the NYT) but long story short we are ranked 30th out of 68 P4 programs at $568m (vs $405m last year). IU got a big bump (like double) due to their “emergence” partially tempered by uncertainty as to whether it sticks.
