People are worried about our strength of schedule...

I am one that thinks if we run the table that it doesn't matter bit. I firmly believe that if we don't lose a game we will be in that 4 team playoff. I don't really worry about our SOS. Am I wrong and missing something?

Or two ESECPN teams. The will fight hard to get two ESECPN teams in regardless if there were 17 undefeated teams.

IF, if there are 5 undefeated teams with one coming from each of the power 5 conferences. The 4 teams that had the toughest schedule will be in the play offs unless your team is Bama or OSU....

That won't happen. There's no way that many teams go unbeaten.

There's very little precedent for 3 unbeaten power conference teams, much less 5.

I remember Auburn and somebody else unbeaten in the same year 10 years ago or more, but never 3, not in recent years anyway.

You know, the same one that hadn't lost last season or the season before.. reigning Nat Champ.. 3 seed. Sos matters, perception matters. If FSU didn't come inas defending champs, 1 loss tcu or baylor would have been in, no doubt.

SOS , as a measuring stick loses credibility with each game . They (ESPiN/Sagarin) know that what the old formula was is no longer the metric for this Final Four committee. If Clemson is undefeated , we are in . Period. Even a loss next week or a loss to FSU , if it's our only loss wouldn't completely erase us from the argument.
