While I certainly admire these programs for excelling with less talented players, there is no way possible for them to compete week in and week out in either of these conferences. JMHO

I'd just say that if these teams were in the SEC, their recruiting would de facto jump to top 50 just for being in the SEC. I don't know as much about the other 3 teams but as far as BSU goes, I'd say their coaching is on par with anyone-if they could recruit they'd be staggering. BSU is running like 88 and 4 for 5 years which you can't do on your starters only.
The SEC doesn't play SEC quality teams week in and week out, they actually seek out some pretty weak OOC.
I am the first to admit that BSU can't take Texas, Florida, or Alabama. Neither can anyone else in the SEC I do think they could play with the rest of the SECs teams though. And I don't care about Oregon because we beat them too.
