Don't think there's an agenda, butthey are inadvertently begging teams to avoid opening the season against tough non-conference opponents.

Alabama's been doing it for years and it apparently hasn't hurt them. 
Imo, it's concreted their legitimacy.

No they aren't.

How so?
I think wisconsin, tOSU, and Michigan are all benefiting from tough OOC games. OU is even crawling back into the conversation as if their 2 OOC losses were not a huge issue. Clemson just lost at home to an unranked Pitt late in the year while not having been dominant all yr and the polls barely reflect much change. I'd bet their road win against what has proven to be a good auburn team has given them a bit of a boost.
UDUB and Louisville on the other hand don't have big OOC games and they continue to fall to the rear of teams with like or sometimes worse records.
