Why Big Ten Must Mandate Power Conference Opponents: More of Finebaum's Folly
Join JR on The Big Ten Huddle as he breaks down why the Big Ten must mandate a Power 4 opponent for every team—matching the SEC, ACC, and Big 12's bold scheduling moves—to strengthen the conference and silence critics. Drawing from Brett McMurphy's recent article, JR argues against the Big Ten's hesitation and explores how this could impact automatic qualifiers in the 2026 College Football Playoff (CFP).
Next, he takes on Paul Finebaum's outlandish threats to the CFP, debunking them with facts and calling out the SEC bias in media narratives. Finally, get an in-depth, data-backed ranking of Big Ten vs. SEC quarterbacks, using ESPN QBR, PFF grades, and adjusted completion percentages to crown the top performers like Jada Maiava, DeMond Williams, and more. Who comes out on top? Big Ten or SEC?
