The eye test maters to everyone else in the country, if we had better talent in our conference it would make us look better to the rest of the country. I'm not just talking about this year, I'm talking about the next 5, 10, 20. In the long run it doesn't matter if the BE's football product was better than the ACC's in 2012 (or once every 4 or 5 yrs). What matters is the overall quality of the product on the field year in and year out, that's what wins titles and makes it rain, brings home the bacon, makes the money.
By the way, you get this done by recruiting 4 and 5 star players like the ACC does and coaching them to do what they do. Not bringing in 2 and 3 star players and coaching them up. Talent and recruiting beats development and coaching every day...you may not like it but its the truth
