Probably has something to do with them typically having better offenses than other conferences as well. Maybe mention both sides next time.

But are they actually better offenses? Or does it just look that way based on the bad defenses in the conference?

Things like # of possessions matter. A big 12 game generally has a fair bit more on average than an SEC game. Also check last bowl season. Big 12 was pretty solid.

Elite SEC defense on display from Missouri.

Before manon freaks out.

Fun fact: Maryland scored a COMBINED 20 points against Ohio State, Michigan, and Penn State last year in 180 minutes of play. Already 30 (should be more) in the first half against Texas. Poor Tom Herman.

Maryland's QB isn't even good. Texas just couldn't stop the run and basically conceded the pass. Lol.

why would you hand pick literally the three best teams in the Big Ten to support your argument when Texas isn't at the level of any of those teams?

[Da Gyps]

Because it suits his argument. Also MD has a different QB this year and a non-offensive TD in this game.

Well let's go by bowl games last season then.

Big 12
Record: 4-2
Points Scored Avg: 29.0
Points Allowed Avg: 21.5

Big 10
Record: 3-7
Points Scored Avg: 23.4
Points Against Avg: 29.8

Including Iowa getting drilled 30-3 and Ohio State getting drilled 31-0. Go Big 10

Damn the salt is real today. Everyone getting defensive over nothing.
