Why is losing to the #1 team in the middle of the regular season an automatic disqualifier for the #2 spot at the end of the regular season?


Since when do we measure teams by quality of losses?

Let me preface this by saying that I could care less who we play in NO.

If Okie State, Bama, Va Tech, and LSU where all undefeated, we would rank them by their wins.
Provided Okie State, Va Tech, and LSU win this weekend it would look like this:

1)LSU
2)Okie State
3)Bama
4)Va Tech


You never ask "Who'd you lose to" first, it's always "Who'd you beat".

Whats up Green Chili Tiger?

I have to say, I'm having more fun trollin' this board than a gump who found dentures.

I would look at both honestly, people are always saying how its the "full body of work", and to me a loss to Iowa St., a 27 point underdog, puts Okie St. below Bama despite them having more "quality wins"
