nice research but your still missing the point of playing the SEC teams week in and out. The SEC doesn't get higher BCS rating because of cupcake victories. They get higher ratings because pretty much everybody in the sec is solid except for vandy. ole miss has been pretty bad as well.

This is why the PAC-12 has to have great OOC scheduling. it is the only way of surpassing a SEC team in the BCS ratings if they both have the same record

This is what I was saying the whole thread. Ducks fly is an idiot. He thinks that just because the PAC1 plays 9 in conference games in a row, that its a tough schedule. Except for the fact that 5 of those teams have a .500 win % OR WORSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The PAC1 HAS to schedule tough OOC just to get a semi respectable SOS. And even then, as pointed out earlier, the PAC1 still has their share of cupcakes.

The SEC could schedule ONLY high school teams OOC and still play more ranked teams. Ducksfly can only say I make stuff up. These are facts. Whether I spin them to suit my argument or not... they are still facts!

Here is some numbers I put together long ago to shut up some idiot USC fans. I stopped keeping tabs as the facts are painfully obvious for anyone without their head up their arse. So I guess thats why ducksfly can't understand it. I started from 2002 since thats when the website at the time had the schedules/stats/rankings... must have been ESPN but it was long ago and I don't remember.

Remind me again why any SEC team has to schedule tougher OOC teams? 240-157 nuff said?
Oh I think I get it... so the PAC1 wants the SEC, who already plays more ranked teams, to schedule more tougher games while they play their cupcake in conference schedule just so the PAC1 has a chance to get more than 1 team in a bowl?
