Georgetown [13-9 (4-7), RPI: 34, SOS: 2] If not for playing the country's second-toughest schedule, Georgetown probably wouldn't even be in the at-large discussion.
I could say the exact opposite. If Gtown played chumps, they'd have a better record.

Agreed. If they played the 120th toughest schedule in the country they'd probably be something like 19-4, 20-3, 21-2?

You could say that, but you wouldn't say that based on statistical facts. Thus its an argument of a qualitative nature, which is fine. But it is messed up when the main statistical method used to rank teams by the selection committee is tweaked to emphasize that type of argument.
