Exactly. I said this earlier when studying Purdue's record. They are 1-4 against ranked teams and have zero Top 15 wins. Yet they are somehow a guaranteed lock to get in?

I was confused a couple of weeks ago as to why Purdue was getting so much love. All the talk was how hard their schedule is. I'm sorry, but no matter how hard it may be, you have to BEAT somebody to impress me.

And I am not impressed by the Big Ten. I can see that there is parity in that league, but I don't see any one team who looks scary. They just beat each other up, and get the benefit of the doubt. Michigan is a very well coached team, and they play outstanding defense. But they aren't exactly explosive, and yet, they're the best that conference has to offer.

And to say that a 7 loss team is a lock and LSU isn't, is just dishonest and lazy analysis. It's a good thing their opinions don't count.
