SEC Football: Fantasy Booking an SEC-Big 10 Challenge
SEC West V Big 10 East
Alabama v Michigan State- Who wouldn’t want to see this rematch? Actually, no one would. Alabama embarrassed Michigan State in their College Football Playoff game and this would likely be the same. I’d certainly still tune-in for it, though, with these two national brands.
Ole Miss v Ohio State- Ole Miss football was one of the hottest teams to end the 2015 season. Ohio State slipped only once all season. Both lost a lot to the NFL Draft, so it’d be interesting to see who’d find their footing first in 2016.
Arkansas v Michigan- As many shots as Harbaugh has taken at SEC football and as much as Bret Bielema likes to talk, the build-up to this game would be classic. Watching Bielema’s rushing attacking try to gain traction against Harbaugh’s defense would be quality television.

LSU v Nebraska- Both teams underachieved based on their talent level last sesaon. LSU couldn’t score against SEC football opponents. Nebraska scored over 400 points on the season, but also gave up over 350. There’s not telling how this would go.
Texas A&M v Indiana- This is where the talent gap between the SEC and Big 10 becomes evident. Texas A&M should win this one easily based on talent, but you never know until you play the game on the field.
Mississippi State v Maryland- This one could have been really interesting. There were rumors galore about Mullen going to Maryland this past offseason. Alas, Mullen stayed and he and his Bulldogs would have a talent edge against Maryland.

Auburn v Rutgers- Auburn had huge expectations entering the 2015 SEC football team. The Tiger’s talent level is much greater than Rutger’s. Auburn’s inept offense would keep fans interested, though.
