what is the strongest college football conference?

I agree the SEC is the strongest football conference. It's also the most consistently strong football conference. Every conference has great teams and "trash" teams. The strength of conference should be judged on how deep in the ranks you have to go to find a trash team. Based on this criteria, I believe the SEC to be strongest.

Nobody loves FSU Football like I do !!!!!   My favorite Seminole of All-Time would have to be Peter Warrick...   Currently I will have to say Tony Carter or Antone Smith...  the best conference is the SEC...  they're stacked top to bottom... and there are at least 5 or 6 teams in that conference that will contend for the BCS this year !!!!

Yes the Big Least, and the Small Ten are very top heavy. Two or three elite teams and then a big drop off. SEC teams rarely get a week off, especially now that Spurrier is at SC, and Arkansas is steppin up. Even an IND like ND plays a tougher schedule than THE Ohio State or Michigan. But that is why they go by strength of schedule also and there has been less importance to the blow out victory. As far as other teams in your conference sucking, their fault that they do not recruit better. Bottom line is WE NEED A PLAYOFF FOR COLLEGE FOOTBALL!!!!!!!

Ohio State is simply the best team in the nation until they lose to\nsome other team. These fans are absurd. USC whipped the \n2nd highest ranked team in the SEC, Arkansas 50-14 in Fayetteville earlier this season. If they can do that to the 2nd best team in the SEC on the road, they would run roughshod over the rest of the conference. Oregon State, their only loss, was much more competitive against the Trojans than the Razorbacks were.\nOhio State beat Texas 24-7, the defending national champions \non their home turf. That was their only loss until they lost to the\nupstart Kansas State Wildcats on Saturday in Manhattan. Stop\nmaking excuses for the SEC. Arkansas got whipped by a better\nteam, plain and simple. USC was the better team on that day.

The true mid-majors include the Missouri Valley, Colonial, Horizon, West Coast, Big West, MAC, WAC and Mountain West. These are non-BCS leagues whose best teams have proven to be consistently capable of competing with any top team. The regular season champions of these leagues are generally guaranteed a NCAA tournament bid and relatively high seed but usually these leagues do not get more than two bids and do not usually recieve very high seeds (Gonzaga has grown to become an exception).\n\nConference USA, the Atlantic 10, and WAC/Mountain West had traditionally been grouped in a separate class between the 6 BCS "power" conferences and the true mid-majors, they were usually regarded as "Major" conferences. Prior to the recent conference re-alignments those conferences consistently placed 3 or more teams in the tournament and their best teams didn't just compete with top teams, they were ranked among the top teams in the country. The Atlantic 10, WAC and Mountain West are now definite mid-majors but with Memphis' performance this year the jury is still out on Conference USA.

My guess would be Louisiana Lafayette...  I think they have the best offense in a very dismal conference...  they might eek out 6 wins...  the Sun Belt is awful, its just imposible to tell...

I think the so-called "power conferences" get too much credit.  The Big-10 was supposedly the strongest conference in the nation and look what happened to them in the tourney.

If you're talking college it'll be the SEC as usual, they have the most dangerous variety of teams you'll find...  and that probably want never change...  its so wide open that a team like South Carolina or Arkansas could easily pull off a few upsets and find themselves playing for the conference championship !!!  The sure fire way you can tell a conference is great is that one team never dominates over everyone...  any team can take the conference crown at any given time...  And that's what you see with the SEC... its a guessing game...

Indianapolis Colts. They are clicking on all cylinders and I can't see anyone beating Peyton and crew.\n\nIn college I would say Ohio State. I don't ever remember seeing a more domiant team with as much talent-and their coach is one of the greatest..

Which team has the best winning percentage in college football history?\n\nMichigan has the over-all best winning percentage of all college football teams. But the Sooners have the best record, 0.75205, in what is commonly accepted as the era of modern college football - since 1948.

rutgers really is this good. they dominated two really good Navy and Pittsburgh teams earlier in this year, plus they destroyed a team from the Big 10 and a team from the ACC back in September.\n\nRutgers has to be considered in the BCS equation, at least as long as they are undefeated!

Ohio State has a good returning team.  USC and Texas will be right in the mix as well, with strong recruiting classes.  An early season game between Texas and Ohio State at Texas could decide early which one of those two teams makes it to the BCS championship game.  Look out for Florida, though, in the second year of Urban Meyer's leadership.  Chirs Leak is a senior and potential Heisman winner.  Same with Oklahoma looking to bounce back with Adrian Peterson.  At this point, I'd have to go with USC still.
