the problem is that you're basically assuming all conferences are equal


not equal, but the top 4, or more importantly the top teams in the top 4 conferences are not significantly different in quality.

On another note, should you just get credit for being in a strong conference without playing some of the better teams in your conference? Should you just judge the strength of the conference or the strength of each teams conference schedule? Bama only played 3 SEC teams that had winning records last year and lost to 1 of them. Only 2 teams that had winning records in the SEC. Was their conference schedule really tougher than Ok State or Oregons?

OR ignoring the strength of a #2 team from a strong conference


If they are #2 in their own conference, that means they probably already lost to the team above them. How does granting a rematch no diminish the regular season in that case? If you are #2 in your conference, what claim do you have to be the best team in the country.
