Virginia Tech is only a given to win 10 games because of their schedule. They're not better, but I would love to see the ACC climb over the Big 10 in strength. Let's concentrate football powerhouses where they were meant to be!! :rock:
the best indicator for conference strength is the bowl record of each conference at the end of the year. The SEC isn't always the best, depends on the year.

I don't think that's really true. The bowl record can be misleading. The SEC for some reason tends to play higher ranked teams (conference-wise) in their bowl games. The Peach Bowl, for example pits the SEC #3 against the ACC #2, I think. I don't think the ACC was better than the SEC in 2002 or 2003 when Maryland and Clemson beat UT.
