The SEC has won 13 of the last 17 national titles, that's not a debate about current strength. The Big Ten's depth is questionable when you look at their 3-6 bowl record last season. Ohio State and Michigan are elite, but the middle tier like Nebraska and Wisconsin haven't consistently challenged the SEC's comparable programs. The coaching edge is also overstated, as the SEC added proven winners like Mike Elko and Kalen DeBoer this offseason.
