Big Ten beating SEC with talk after beating them on field; plus a future when Big Ten/SEC play more
from The Bill and Doug Show: Ohio State Football Talk · host Blue Wire
Big Ten Media Days wrapped up Thursday, and the conference should leave Chicago feeling like it is beating the SEC in perception after beating the SEC on the field on the way to the last three national titles. Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti was more forceful in taking on the SEC and making a case for his league, and on this episode, Doug Lesmerises, Bill Landis and Matt Fortuna gave their final thoughts on this continuing battle between the leagues. The five main topics covered: • The Big Ten not being afraid to promote itself as a football power • The 24-team playoff discussion is proof of the Big Ten's growing strength • Are the Big Ten and SEC friends, enemies or frenemies? Doug asked the commissioner. • Petitti correctly pushed back on the idea that the depth in the SEC is better than the depth in the Big Ten • In a 24-team playoff, the Big Ten is ready to give up on conference championship games, which would hurt the SEC more Thanks for joining The Bill and Doug Show.
