That explains why Florida wasn't on his radar.
We got our first choice.  
Ask Tennessee how hard that is.

Wow, I was totally wrong.  The Big 12 is merely average.  Silly me.
You've left off your point MICHIGAN hoping some one would bite.UM has routinely feasted on the lesser squads .Look their record up vs Ohio State,Michigan State and the Bowls.There is a reason Jim took a paycut you can explain that to the congregation.There is not a conversion table that flips the script that applies these losses to other conference championships except in your land of make believe.You and reality have but a fleeting acquaintance

That's what has been discussed.Throwing shyt against the wall hoping it sticks is not evidence of anything
Remove your hater goggles for a moment.
I'm doing real-time research (that...lemme guess, you're not willing to do), not knowing the outcome.  I'm taking the risk of being shown to be wrong.  And I'm doing it on display for a small army of posters who dislike me.

I'm all about following where the evidence leads.  Are you?

Imagine the record if we were fully motivated!

Obviously a lot worse, since the other teams would be fully motivated as well.

Well yeah, they do that already.  It's their Super Bowl.  A chance to beat an SEC team, no matter how many players have opted out.

But we all know if UM was in the Big 12, Harbaugh wouldn't have been in the hot seat entering 2021.  He wouldn't have been 0-6 vs anyone.  He'd have a couple of conference titles, probably.

Well I've waited for this cascade of evidence
You make me larf since JH was hired, here is were UM has finished in the BIG Ten East
2015 3rd
2016 3rd
2017 4th
2018 2nd
2019 3rd
2020 5th
You've shared with the congregation these are clear indicators he would win the Big 12 probably twice with an average of slightly below 3rd place
That doesn't even pass the say it out loud test.Look in the mirror and say that out loud

I will say out loud that after doing the bowl research, I overestimated how good the B1G is.  Happy?  lol

so, some conferences are better during bowl season, the exhibition season, the post season that doesn't count?

cool

and what point are you trying to prove?

that bowl games are important?

you made a generalization based on nothing but skewed views.Walk yourself back and look who introduced the assertion.I followed the evidence and it didn't indicate UM,tOSU,UW,MSU,PSU or anyone else would win another conference title twice.OU alone had 2 heisman winners under center that led high octane offenses.TOSU lost to both UT/OU the last time they played but won the previous contests.Sometimes you're the bug sometimes the windshield

$$$$$$ might have something to do with it.I'd start eating quiche for the right price.If it's true then Fickell to Norman - maybe
BTW quiche is just a fancy french name for an omelette in a pie crust. Not all that scary :57:
