SEC Has Slight Edge

(Birmingham, Al)

The SEC and Big Ten are not the only great conferences but I guess the SEC-Big Ten debate has gotten more interest because of last year's national title game.

I definitely don't believe the SEC is head and shoulders above everyone else, but I think it has a slight edge at this point in time.

I would like to say the gap is wider but it just isn't because the SEC hasn't won enough head to head match ups.

I do think the SEC is on the rise though and partly because of the coaches in the conference.

The reason I would overall give the SEC a slight edge is mainly because it has won five national championships in the last 16 years by four different teams and denied a shot for one in 04, which means it's probably safe to say it is the deepest of the conferences.
