quote:My SOS formula is the same as the BCS's old formula. Your opponents winning % times 2, plus your opponents' opponents winning % times 1, divided by 3. OU and LSU had tougher schedules than USC that year based on that formula.
The problem with the whole strength of schedule piece of the formula is that it assumes everything is equal.
In your formula, if team A beats an SEC school that finishes 11-1, and team B beats a Sun Belt school that finishes 11-1, there is no difference.

In addition, once you get past a certain point, does it really matter?
