i used to live in florida and i know what the SEC and ACC is like. now i live in the heart of buckeye country. i warned everybody about florida and the SEC but they didn't listen. not until it was all over.
my question is, why does everyone in the big ten area (OSU) think that the world of college football only revolve around this conference and that there is nothing out there worth while to watch?

Just take advantage of the situation and make some bets with all those suckers and send me half of the money because I gave you the idea.

Because for most, college football is a regional thing. In Big 10 country, people talk big 10. Down here, everyone talks about the Big XII. In Cali, PAC 10 is what people talk about. Down south, people talk SEC, and now ACC after the changes that took place a couple year ago.
Then, there are those of us who are mapping our team way to the title game in week one. By the beginning of this last season, I figured out what had to happen around the NCAA world if Texas lost to OSU in week 2, which they did. Of course, I didn't factor in the last two losses of the season.
Simply, there are college football fans who follow their team and conference. Then there are us fanatics who follow the thing. Just the nature of the beast.

touche....
as you have stated, you do know what you are talking about and I do not. Quite frankly, I'm an OSU fan and could care less about other college football teams and conferences, making a good example of your original statement.
Yes, they lost (badly) to a very good Florida team this year but I'm sure they'll get another crack at it within 3 or 4 years.

yeah. the SEC proved that we were the best confernce with 5 bowl game and a national champion. no other conference had 9 teams in it. shows them who has the toughest schedule no matter who you play in the SEC. the big ten went 2-5.

it goes both ways . SEC isn't local and they don't follow the teams , and they rely on what the media say leading up to ONE game
or its denial, either answer works for me
