First off, no one here stated that the Big Ten was better than the ACC. So why are you arguing a point that wasn't made?</p>

<p>Second off, since when is the number of bowl tie-ins relavent to how good a conference is at football? Wouldn't something like computer generated conference rankings be more accurate? Or maybe i'm clueless, I don't know. Enlighten me. </p>

<p>By the way, here are the the conference rankings generated by computers, maybe you could use these instead of useless bowl births to educated yourself and make a proper decision:</p>

1) SEC
2) PAC 10
3) Big East
4) Big Ten
5) ACC

1) Pac 10
2) SEC
3) Big East
