So Auburn should have been spared for what reason exactly?

Who you play is who you play, it does not matters at all how you got them on your schedule.

You're basically telling Oklahoma you know their schedule was tougher, but we'll take Auburn any way because they had this scheduling issue that caused them to schedule a shite team, so sorry OU.


Computers > Humans by a wide margin

it had everything to do with Oklahoma starting #2 and not losing the whole way. the polls now are more fluid. teams have actually dropped after bad wins

and 4 teams > 2 teams

Your OP talked about an undefeated team, not a 1 loss team.
You're right. But my point about a 1-loss team, I still stand by.

And a 1 loss AAC team basically has no shot of getting in either way
If Northern Illinois could get in the Orange Bowl with a loss in the second worst conference, a one-loss Houston under this plan can get into the top 4.

Computer polls don't care about that. Your wayyyyyyy more likely to be moved down based on the week of the season in human polls.

This happens with computer polls.

Computer polls literally don't care where teams were ranked the week before, unlike biased humans.

Humans were the problem. That's why we had the BCS. Now we're back to humans who basically just go with the Massey Composite and have guys like you fooled into an unwitting comfort.
