But, I do agree, Wisconsin definitely would have been ranked #1 or #2 if they were Ohio State, Alabama, USC, Michigan, etc


You think if any of those teams started the pre-season ranked somewhere in the 8-10 range, and 7 of their 12 opponents had losing records, they’d still be ranked #1 or #2?

Was t Alabama’s schedule pretty much garbage when they were undefeated and ranked number one?

Or am I wrong on that

If Michigan, under Jim Harbaugh, was the only P5 team that was 12-0 going into their conference title game with a bunch of close, ugly wins over decent but not great teams.............yea I 100% think they'd be ranked #1 or #2. Zero doubt.

I don't think it really matters (1-4 make the playoffs), but I think other teams would get the benefit of the doubt.
