beating one 10 win team really makes a tough schedule.

I'm not arguing they had a great schedule. I'm arguing that it would be difficult for anyone outside the Top 4-5 to go undefeated against that schedule
Agree to disagree.
It is easier for Bama to lose to Auburn when Bama gets beat up playing 4 top 25 teams.
Slip 1 top 25 team on the schedule... and Bama is more likely to be healthy playing Auburn the last game in November.
UGA lined up our 4th string right guard against Quinnen Williams.
Those types of depth issues are less likely while blowing out several 5 loss Power 5 teams than versus a top 25 opponent (4 times over).
Stacking a tough road month with 3 top 25 opponents all away from home... the odds of slipping through that unscathed is very different than what LSU could do if they only had to get up for 2 opponents per year.

I appreciate the post Summer.
But this is useless nonsense, isn’t it?
If nothing else, very misleading.
Strength of Schedule is the most important metric, besides W-L.
Thank you BCS!
