Not entirely accurate.

Since 2003, Oregon has the same number of wins vs Washington as Ohio State has vs Michigan.

Both rivalries have been completely one-sided.

Some of the kids Washington is recruiting have only had 2 UW wins over Oregon in their lifetime.

By far the softest, whiniest, snowflake fan base in the country.

Never really thought it mattered all that much.
You beat the teams you are suppose to beat, and play tough the better ones.

If you are the best, it will show up.

I would like to see Cincinnati and Memphis get into the Power 5... probably the Big XII.

Although Cincinnati becoming P5 might put a damper on some of the Ohio recruiting by Kentucky, Michigan State, Pitt, and West Virginia. And Memphis becoming P5 might put a damper on some of the Tennessee recruiting by Ole Miss, Arkansas, and Mississippi State.

Playing a Power 5 opponent does not mean playing a quality opponent.

Oklahoma State, Texas tech, Kansas, and West Virginia do not play any FBS OOC with a winning record in 2019. That is 40% of the conference only plays teams with losing records.

IN the B1G, Illinois and Maryland do not play a FBS OOC with a winning record. 14%

In the Big 12, only TCU plays a FBS OOC with teams with winning records. 10%

In the B1G, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Northwestern, Nebraska, play FBS OOC with winning records. 28%

By saying that a 5-7 Oregon State, 4-8 Arizona, 3-9 Vanderbilt, 6-7 Boston College, 4-8 Mississippi, 6-7 Florida State, 3-9 Maryland is more impressive than play 11-3 Florida Atlantic, 13-1 Applachian State, 12-2 memphis, 11-3 Cincinnati, 11-2 Air Force, 8-4 Western Kentucky, 8-5 Buffalo, 8-5 Arkansas State, 8-5 Temple, 7-6 BYU, 7-6 Tulane, 8-6 Central Michigan, and 7-6 Kent State, okey dokey.

WVU OOC slate is better than Minnesota, Northwestern or Nebraska’s. There isn’t much difference between a 7-6 team that won their bowl game and a 5-7 team. Using records of teams last season is not a full proof way to judge OOC slates.
