Big Ten contends with the Big SEC lie and unfair advantage

"It just means more" is what they always say, but the Big Ten has won the last two football national championships, and last season they were 2-0 against the SEC in the playoffs and 3-1 in other bowl games.

That's 5-1 head-to-head, after the argument got a further boost when USC, 4-5 in their first year in the Big Ten, beat LSU 27-20 to start the season and Texas A&M in the Las Vegas Bowl, 35-31.

Maybe "it just means more" should be changed to "we just cheat more."

The SEC won 15 of 27 national championships since the BCS era began in 1998, but the conference has always tilted the table in two ways.
