Welcome to a conference with 18 teams (and more money than everyone else).You could make a third and fourth all-conference team out of what we left out of our preseason bunch, and both would be better than any Group of Five conference by a mile, and would be almost as strong as the ACC and Big 12 teams.USC, Illinois, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Washington, Michigan State, and Minnesota should be far, far more represented than they are, but we only do a first and second team for the preseason.Ohio State, Oregon, and Penn State might be the three best teams in college football, and it's easy to explain why - they're beyond loaded with talent.
