UNCfan, lets expand your post just a bit and align opponents....
2012: Alabama played...8-5 Miss St.,....OOC 8-5 Mich.....10-3 LSU.....................11-2 aTm and....12-2 UGa in the CCG and OOC 12-1 ND
2012: Stanford played OOC 8-6 Wisc ........9-5 UCLA......9-5 UCLA in CCG............9-4 Ore St and...12-1 Oregon and....OOC 12-1 ND
2012: Ohio State played..7-6 Mich St..........8-5 Mich.....10-4 Neb and ??? played 10-4 Neb in the CCG (OOC NO ONE)
In 2012 Bama and Stanford played similar schedules while OSU played the easier even if we give them Neb in the CCG.
2011: LSU played.......... 8-5 Auburn.........10-4 UGa in CCG....OOC 10-3 WVU.......11-2 Ark......................12-1 Alabama and 12-1 Alabama
2011: Alabama played.....8-5 Auburn...OOC 9-4 PSU.....................11-2 Ark.........13-1 LSU and................13-1 LSU
2011: Wisconsin played...9-4 Neb..............9-4 PSU.....................11-3 Mich St....11-3 MSU in CCG and OOC 12-2 Ore
2011: Oregon played.......7-6 Cal.............10-2 USC..............OOC 11-3 Wisc........11-2 Stanford and....OOC 13-1 LSU (6-8 UCLA in the CCG!!)
I would say Bama, Wisc and Ore played about the same with LSU playing one more quality opponent.
I'm just looking at conference games. OOC games say nothing about the strength of in-conference schedules (which SEC fans claim is that much better than any other conference). IMO, the conference champions in other conferences have very similar in conference schedules.
