In 2021 they were 149th in research spending at $139M.

The lowest B1G school was #87 Nebraska at $307M but that doesn't include the $201M at their medical school.

Your school was #8 at $1.4B, mine was #12 at $1.2B.
Ahhh. That a community college does not make. 

Granted, this whole game is a bit silly. So whatever.

Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Joel Klatt. 
LOL

The funny thing is that the SEC doesn't have to do anything further, ever.  We have 5 bluebloods (Tenn is if Neb is).  Half the conference are top 15 programs, all-time.  The HS talent in the southeast + Texas basically supplies the entire nation.  It's mostly full of hyper football fanatics and only has 1 basketball school.

Compare the research budgets of Oregon, a Community College, and a B1G school.

Is Oregon closer to the CC or the B1G?

For real?



They have literally the same number of losses in 1300 games.  They're consecutive entries in all-time win%.  Basically the same number of bowls, same number of times finishing in AP poll.
They're as similar as it gets, lol.

Which numbers?  Both are top 10 in win percentage when applying reasonable criteria like FBS teams with >1000 games played.

See above.  Roughly the same overall win %, bowl appearances, and AP poll finishes.  
I guess Nebraska has a couple more NCs.

Yeah they look pretty much the same to me.  If Nebraska's a blueblood then so is Tennessee.  And if Tennessee isn't, and Nebraska isn't, then there are only 8 true bluebloods in all of college football.

4 in the new B1G, 3 in the New SEC, and one in South Bend.

yeah that was dumb. B1G did improve with the additions, but SEC still better and is getting Texas & OU.

absolutely. USC and Texas are debatable as to which program is better overall- they are both excellent adds.

No question Oklahoma is a much better program than UCLA by miles and miles however.
