NFL coaches make no fucking difference at all. Jim Bollman is a former NFL coach. Most big time D1 places have guys who have been in the NFL. Big deal. NFL coaches, generally do not know anymore then any other coaches at these big time programs. How many NFL guys have we seen come to college and FAIL? Oh wait, Jim Harbaugh is going to the NFL....a college coach. He'll get drilled because they know more, right? Nada.
Fact of the matter is, the SEC is at an advantage in a couple areas...one being admissions and the other the oversigning they allow. They have better talent, top to bottom in their conference, simple as that.
Here is a good read, with facts:
"I get what Muschamp is doing. Nearly all Florida football recruits enter college with designs on the NFL, and Muschamp can now sell them on the fact that they'll be learning from the pros themselves. But a lot of programs have tried this, and it generally doesn't work. See: Nebraska under Bill Callahan, Virginia under Al Groh, Notre Dame under Weis. Pete Carroll's USC dynasty finally began to wane when he started filling his staff with more and more NFL guys. The concern is that players become more invested in their draft stock than in the success of the team."

No matter what happened in the bowl games, the Big Ten will be fine. They were better this year, and the addition of Nebraska will only help. What the Big Ten needs, is Michigan to be Michigan, and PSU to step up as well. Two traditional powers have no national threat for some time.
BTW, Texas just hired a few asst. away from the SEC, guy from Bama as well as one from Miss St.
