I'm typing this slowly.

I posted strength of schedule .

I'll type it AGAIN.

Strength of SCHEDULE

Let's check the tape....

Strength of record

Texas #2
Alabama #6
Washington #8
Mich # 51

FSU # 55

Enjoy, kiddo

Interesting. And what did I say?

Umm... you posted the exact same thing he did. Which is SOS. I posted SOR.

Maybe you should stick to being wrong on the politics board instead of being wrong in here too.

And what did he post?

Just another reason.......

SOS
Texas - 13th
Alabama - 5th
FSU - 55th

just STFU......

My guess is you just don't understand the difference between SOR and SOS. Obviously there are a thousand different SOS calcs out there but they are all within of a margin of error of each other. Thanks for play though. You really should go on back over to where you belong.

Finally acknowledging I wrote about STRENGTH OF SCHEDULE.

That envelope, you are pushing it pretty hard.

You literally titled your post "Strength of Record"...

Yes, I did which was a mistake on my part because I posted the strength of schedule results.

So congrats on correcting my title error

Do you blame FSU fans for how they feel? If your team was one of 3 undefeated power 5 conference champs you'd probably feel the same way.
I'm sure if Ohio State was in the same position, Mr Buckeye would be livid lmao

If that is the case then Liberty should be in.....which is stupid. Florida St played a pretty weak overall schedule. But in the end.....without Jordan Travis they are NOT one of the Top 4 teams. It's really that simple.
Idk, I'd argue Liberty SHOULD be in. That's more an issue of a 4 team CFP always being stupid to begin with and creating inevitable faultlines. Additionally, either commit to the bit of going off of predictive metrics for determining the "best" teams so everyone knows what's up or drop the act, jmo.

Otherwise, we're gonna have an appearance (real or perceived) of favoritism.

Thanks for the surrender in acknowledging I was talking about a different metric, dear

Don't mean to interject, but... This is sorta ridiculous.

Someone posted an SoS ranking.

He replied with the SoR ranking.

You then retorted with the SoS ranking again.

He pointed out that you just reposted what the first guy posted which isn't the same.

Which then a string of you saying, "No I didn't", and him replying, "Yes you did!".

He points out that you mislabeled your post as SoR.

You acknowledge the error (Meaning you did, in fact, post the same SoS that the previous guy did).

And then conclude with, "See? Told you I posted a different metric than SoR!" (Which was the SoS that the first guy posted, that you said you didn't repost), which was what he was telling you from the beginning.

Bruh! LOL! :D

Why play the games and go unbeaten in a power 5 if it means nothing? Liberty isn’t a power five, pretty damn poor comparison.

Yea, you are right. Alabama lost a game. Guess what though. They are in the Playoff. Because apparently beating teams in the Top 25 is more valuable than avoiding them.
Florida st didn’t beat any top 25 teams?

LSU blowout win wasn’t a top 25 win? Louisville 10-2 ranked win doesn’t count either? Where is their ugly loss in the schedule

And as is always said, these schedules are made years in advance. One would think beating Miami, LSU at a neutral site, and both Clemson and Florida on the road would be enough for ANY team in ANY year on top of winning your conference and going undefeated...

Why are people still surprised when the system bends over backwards to prop up media darling Alabama? This has been the case for years now. Regardless of results every Nick Saban team is given the benefit of the doubt built on the backs of past Nick Saban teams. Rinse. Repeat.

Heard the Jags are eliminated from the playoffs now too after Trevor Lawrence went down. No point in letting them in when they don’t deserve it with their backup

You can’t do that with the NFL. Media darlings don’t get propped up in the NFL. They have a legitimate system with tangible rules before the season even starts for inclusion in playoff competition.
