The SEC is top heavy. Georgia and Alabama are perennial contenders. Then there’s always a surprise team like Tennessee pops up every year. After that, the rest of the conference is pretty average. A couple good teams and no great ones. BIG10 is the same way with OSU and Michigan. Penn State is usually good but not great. Same with 5 or 6 other teams. Occasionally an Illinois or Northwestern has a good season.
I think the reason the SEC gets so much notoriety is that those top two are ALWAYS there at the end and you get a surprise each year so people automatically think the entire conference is so much better than all the others. Fact is Georgia and Alabama are better than everyone most years. But the SEC as a whole isn’t.
