It's Michigan State. I only put SEC teams and CFP contenders.

Because they aren’t a SEC team or playoff contender is my guess, and that is who he listed.

No way FSU schedule was more difficult than UGA. No way.

Maybe you shouldn’t have replaced OU with Ball State

I think it's dumb that 3 CFP-contending teams are in the 60s. No shite, they're undefeated.

Great talent vs. shite schedules.

How a 1-loss Oregon is ahead of UTx and, arguably, even Bama is just dumb.

Sos is a flawed system …
If UGA scheduled a team ranked in 100s as there warm up game they are already at a disadvantage .it would take 3 games of playing someone in the 30 range to even balance out playing someone that bad …let’s say UGA beats number one Bama but also plays number 100 Georgia state ….. UGA basically played two 50 tanks teams and gets hardly any credit for beating number one .. why you can’t use sos only .

I have a difficult time understanding how Texas’ schedule could be ranked as harder than LSU’s schedule. LSU has played 3 road games against Top 11 CFP ranked teams (currently); and one “neutral site” game against the 4th ranked CFP team. Texas has nothing close to that. One game against a Top 10 CFP team. All I can figure is Grambling is so bad (Army too) it dragged the SOS way down. But beating a slightly better cupcake shouldn’t make that big a difference. So as the poster above said, SOS is really very flawed.
