Sankey can talk all he wants about the SEC being the best "by far" but the Big Ten has won three straight national titles and we haven't beaten them in the playoff in three years. That is not a coincidence. That is what happens when you let NIL and the portal turn your program into a free agent market instead of building something that laasts. I remember when the SEC Championship game settled everything. Now we are just hoping to get one team in the final four.
