This list came down to two conferences vying for the top spot, and the Big Ten’s new behemoth of a TV deal gave it the nod over the SEC. That’s not to say there aren’t plenty of arguments for the SEC, but with such a strong core of teams—it’d be shocking if any of last year’s ranked Big Ten squads aren’t contenders again in 2017—Jim Delany’s conference takes the cake. Sure, it had a less-than-impressive showing in the most recent bowl season (going 3–7), but having nine representatives make New Year’s Six bowls in the three seasons of the College Football Playoff era is a feat.
