Of course you can. Sagarin says so, and since Vegas bases their spreads on Sagarin’s predictor with abiut 95% alignment, they agree.


I looked up the last 7 years of his conf ratings (I figured you wouldn’t know how to). Here’s the yearly rating for each division:

2015 1. West 85.03 7. B12 75.28 9 East 72.55
2016 1. West 81.22 5. B12 75.86 8 east 73.17
2017 1. West 81.83 4. B12 78.45 9 east 72.41
2018 1. West 83.24 2. East 79.90 5. B12 77.35
2019 1. West 82.78 2 b12 79.52 4 east 77.61
2021 1. West 81.24 2. B12 78.70 6 east 75.11
2022 1. B12 81.09 2. West 80.80 3. East 79.83

Avg: West: 82.30 B12: 78.40 East: 75.43 (SEC Avg: 78.86

Net: over the last 7 years the avg SEC team is less than 0.5 points better than the avg B12.
