I agree. Every conference has warts.
The SEC has Alabama and ?
The ACC has Clemson and ?
The B1G has Penn St. and ?
The Pac 12 has Washington (maybe) and ?
The Big 12 has TCU and Oklahoma.

The rest of these conference teams have something about them that holds them back. There are no dominant teams outside of one or 2 in each conference.
I will call it parity. Conferences are becoming equalized.
Shoot, I will use Iowa from a few years back. We finished 12-2. Were we one of the best teams in the country? No.But we had a cupcake schedule, a good defense and strong RBs. Who does that sound like this year?
