You can't be playing FCS schools when other P5 teams are going on the road to face other P5 teams in OOC.

Do you understand what that will do in future? Why would teams ever risk not playing complete chumps if a 100% scheduled practice win is given more favor than a tough road loss.

UNC AD made a schedule to be bowl eligible not to be in contention for playoff. They should get that wish.

Baylor openly admits to doing this and still fails

yepper, which is why Clemson would deserve to go over UNC even if they lose.

compare Clemsons vs Ohio States resumes (top 1 loss teams) and decide.

After next weekend, UNC will have played 11 games against Power 5 teams. Ohio State will have played 9.

Also, you ignore the fact that one of the FCS teams UNC played is 10-2, ranked, and would be favored to beat the horrible 'FBS' Hawaii team that Ohio State played.

The South Carolina loss was a terrible, terrible loss. One that our QB readily admits he blew by throwing three INTs in scoring position (2 in the endzone). Bottom line is we should have beat them by 14+ easily but we played terribly in a game in September. Still, I wonder how terrible a loss it would seem if Spurrier hadn't bailed on his team early in the season.
