A&M is actually on top of a list for once.
I would think most everyone here has a pretty good idea how A&M, Nebraska, Missouri and Colorado were before they left. And a pretty good idea on WVU and TCUKind of useless stat unless we see what their record in the old conference was over a similar time frame.

Me too. I think negative, or less than positive, thread titles should be banned until this is over.opened this thread expecting bad news

I think the standard if conferences go to 16 teams, should be to have two divisions and four pods of four. Play everyone in your pod every year, and two teams from the other 3 pods for 9 conference games. You would play every team twice from the other three pods over a four-year period.How often does the SEC West play the powerhouses in the East? Feel like scheduling protects them from any sort of routine matchups....
For example, A&M has played Tenn (2016), UGA (2019), and FLA (2020) one time since joining the conference. This is why I think 9 game conference schedules at 14 teams makes the most sense for the SEC. Should they go 16, go quadrants and play 2 out of each other quadrant and rotate them yearly.
Their first two SEC seasons were strong with Johnny Manzieli think A&M has made great strides since joining the sec, and jimbo came aboard. their late history is much more telling than their early history in the sec.
Speed kills. We are faster than any team minus Ohio St and Michigan.I don’t think we are built for week to week play in the B1G. We are going to have to get more beef on the interior of our Oline, and Dline. We also need to improve our middle linebacker recruiting. Hopefully joining the B1G will open recruiting doors to some of the Midwestern corn fed OL that Wisconsin always trucks out there. I do think our schemes will present lots of problems for a majority of the B1G teams. I think we will certainly do better than Nebraska has done in our first years in.
Utah, over the last few years, has been doing well.I wonder what their records were in their previous conferences for comparison. Surprised on Louisville. Nebraska was on their way down already, but I expected with the division they went to that they could get going again. Rutgers and Maryland have pretty much sucked for a while. A&M is actually on the way up. I'd bet their record is pretty similar as it was compared to when they were in the Big XII. They were always middle of the pack. TCU isn't surprising at all. I know everyone thinks Patterson is some guru, but he was in the MWC. Utah was in a small conference too. Probably Mizzou's best coach ever had to retire for health reasons and they moved from a pretty weak division. I thought Colorado would get their stuff together and get it going again. It seems like the butt whooping we put on them in their bowl game broke their other coach who was getting some bravado going beforehand.
Don’t get me wrong, I agree we have top of conference speed. It’s just going to take a few years to retool and develop the depth for the week to week physicality we will see in the B1G. I think we would definitely be in the upper third of teams from day 1.Speed kills. We are faster than any team minus Ohio St and Michigan.
We have an OL issue in our conference now. We need to show we are starting to get that corrected this year. Our DL depth is pretty good.Don’t get me wrong, I agree we have top of conference speed.
