USA Today: Big Ten replaces the SEC as college football's most overrated
This article explains the obvious. There shouldn't be any polls until mid-October.
Some good points: "While the SEC boasts the nation’s No. 1 team in Alabama, the coaches have put four Big Ten teams in the top 10 to start the season.
Four teams from the conference that hasn’t scored a single point in two consecutive appearances in the College Football Playoff.
Four teams from the conference that face-planted during the most recent bowl season, going 3-7.
Four teams from the conference that, in the last two seasons, has a 20-24 record against the other Power Five leagues.
What in the name of Jim Delany is going on here?"
Yes. that Ohio State team that was absolutely destroyed 31-0 in its last game and hasn't improved much since is ranked Number 2. But it's been going on in these polls for decades.
