Josh Pate declares whether Big Ten has overtaken SEC in college football moving forward

College football analyst Josh Pate expressed his view that the Big Ten conference currently surpasses the SEC both at the top and middle tiers. On his show, Pate argued that the Big Ten deserves equal or greater respect compared to the SEC. He suggested that Big Ten players have a unique approach to football, possibly focusing more on the fundamental aspects of the game rather than the branding and highlights emphasized in the SEC. Pate believes this "wired" mentality is inherent and not something that can be taught or studied. The debate over which conference is superior remains ongoing, with potential outcomes like an Indiana Hoosiers victory over the Miami Hurricanes possibly bolstering Pate's argument.
