The Big Ten's Quiet Confidence Curt Cignetti, Indiana University's football coach, made headlines by asserting that his conference is unequivocally the best in college football.
This statement resonated deeply with fans and coaches within the Big Ten but may have raised eyebrows elsewhere, particularly in the Southeastern Conference (SEC), which has been engaged in a spirited debate about supremacy.
Cignetti cited impressive numbers to support his claim: an 11 5 record in bowl games against the SEC's 4 10 mark.
