All those "toughest schedule" arguments are shamelessly circular. Joel Send a noteboard - 19/11/2012 07:48:02 PM
The playoff is coming. Meanwhile, by virtue of going undefeated against the toughest schedule amongst the top teams (which is hard to maintain when every team you played has at least one loss) Notre Dame have a chance to play for the National Championship.

The SEC pulls that crap every year: "The SEC is the best conference, because they play all the top teams (i.e. their conference schedule." Prove it on the field.

I take it back; you encapsulated everything that is wrong with college football very succintly. - 18/11/2012 04:36:10 PM 384 Views
Ummm the SEC is the toughest conference, and historically have the best/toughest teams. - 21/11/2012 06:45:26 PM 447 Views
Prove it. The subjectivity of rankings makes them (and thus BCS games) irrelevant. - 21/11/2012 08:39:33 PM 433 Views
Quite easy to prove - 22/11/2012 12:07:30 AM 597 Views

Actually, yeah, that analogy works pretty well. - 18/11/2012 10:18:54 PM 457 Views
