How can they have the 127th toughest schedule, next to last but yet be ahead of PSU in whatever stupid graphic said they ranking on ability to have that record based on their schedule? Then they say Pac 12 is the second best conference or division or whatever? They would have 3 -5 losses in the Big ten
 
It was 127 ooc schedule but I get your point.

thanks. yes people do twist the facts. there overall strength of schedule. anywhere from 15th to 60th. average of 37.5. not 127.

Strength of schedule matters. Washington was in some trouble here.
Here are some really basic ways of breaking it down, using stuff the committee's referenced.



- Record vs. latest top 15 vs. latest top 25 vs. .500+
Alabama 13-0 3-0 5-0 9-0
Clemson 12-1 3-0 4-1 9-1
Ohio State 11-1 3-1 3-1 8-1
Washington 12-1 1-1 3-1 5-1
Penn State 11-2 2-1 2-2 7-2
Michigan 10-2 3-1 3-1 6-2

3-5 losses I think is a bit high, but they would be a 2 loss team, for sure.
