1 hour ago1 hr Moderator No. Thanks for the post. Fun stuff to read, but ...Three years is a snapshot. Best to make sure you don't make a B1G mistake and overreact to close-run things in football and basketball. The B1G beat goes on, and Dixie is dumped on. And I say, 'Not So Fast' in two respects. A year ago, the SEC owned March Madness. The B1G went 5-0 vs the SEC in this year's tourney, but except for the Michigan blowout of Tennessee, the games were close.Last season in football, the B1G won it all, but the SEC had five teams in the field, and Ole Miss was this close to playing for a title. And Bama was not the only football team destroyed by Indiana in the playoffs. 🤬A terrific B1G run in football the last three seasons, no doubt. But this comes after a couple of decades of SEC dominance.Win with dignity, lose with grace. Let the other guy beat their 'It Just Means More' breasts. Success on the field, court, etc., speaks for itself without rubbing it in.Speak softly and carry a B1G stick.In the last year, LSU committed $252 million to athletics. Many SEC teams are all in on sports. Will the B1G win the CBB title this year? Will the B1G dominate the moneyball sports through the end of the decade? Maybe.Perhaps it's because I am a greybeard and have walked this mortal coil for a while that I believe three years of anything represents a trend, and not lasting dominance. But while it lasts, it's nice for OBD to be a part of the B1G fun.👍👌😍
