Micah Parsons reacts to Big Ten adding West Coast teams, talks working 'shift' at Raising Cane's

Micah Parsons became a superstar with the Dallas Cowboys, he was an All-American linebacker at Penn State from 2018 to 2020. And with the Big Ten adding West Coast teams like USC, UCLA and Oregon to the conference, Parsons believes the move will make the Big Ten a stronger brand. On3 attended a Raising Cane's event in Dallas that featured Parsons and asked him his thoughts about the Big Ten becoming the Big 18.

"If you look at the Big Ten, Big 12, Big Ten is known for ground or pound football, things like that," Parsons said. "SEC is known for the elite wide receivers and Pac-12 is known for DB play, receiver play, a little bit like that, but they're more in the three-three-five set and things like that."

Parsons added: "Big 10 has more like 4-3, so it gives you a chance to face different type of competitors before you even hit Bowl games. The fact that we can play SEC competition before you even get to the Bowl game, it's crucial and I think it allows teams to play at a fair advantage. You see similar teams that your team's going against. How are you supposed to prepare for an SEC team when you don't play nobody who played the SEC team besides the Bowl game? So I think it's a cool thing they added, man."

Micah Parsons has a lot of love for Raising Cane's
