It is a who gives a shit argument

Ohio State finished the 2006 season against the #2 team in the country

Then they got skullfucked With their own head by Florida.

What happens head to head in championship games is all that matters.

So Bama gets credit for the tough SoS when the teams they played showed they were over ranked?

End of season the SEC was over ranked, it was shown on the field. It is that simple.

Sorry, the SEC west was.

You simply don't have a clue how things work.

I didn't pay attention, did the Bama SoS take a significant hit after the bowls?

Of course.

However, nobody gives a shit at that point except for the computers and such who need it in order to rank teams properly for final rankings.

You do realize the SEC West was undefeated OOC during the regular season?

Alabama beat WVU, Auburn beat Kansas State, Ole Miss beat Boise State, LSU beat Wisconsin, A&M and Mississippi State didn't really play anybody and Arkansas beat Texas Tech(I know they're awful but still a P5) and Northern Illinois(MAC Champs finished 11-2) People were giving the SEC(especially the West) credit because it was due. How can they have proved that they were overrated during the year when literally the only teams they lost to were other SEC teams?

I like how you think disagreement or as you say not giving a shit is butthurt.

It was shown that the SEC teams were not as good as advertised and therefor any calculation that gave Bama a high SoS base off of that was incorrect.

Malzahn (and Saban, too) is really whining about the SEC losing the considerable advantage of perception of strength. It's no longer as big a factor in the playoff era because the teams in the CFP must earn the chance to participate in the NC game. They are no longer anointed by the media (primarily driven by ESPN).

Once a team like Alabama has been beaten as they were in the 2014 bowl season, teams no longer see them as invulnerable, and Alabama's players see that they are vulnerable, too. That's the "something" that has changed not the NFL draft process as Saban claimed. Nick Saban says NFL Draft process impacted loss to Ohio State

Exactly how much do you think 1 game out of 13 matters in these things?

Ohio St lost to VT. That doesn't mean they are over-rated.

Okay, so it's been established that you don't think Wisconsin is any good, and you're trying to argue that Ohio State played a tougher schedule down the stretch?

The rest of their division went 2-4 and they should have taken a hit.

It is a hit, but it's only 1 game out of 13.

It's funny how much people act like the bowl games are the only things that exist after the season are over. Never understood it.

At that time in the schedule they were over-rated.

So you believe Ohio St didn't deserve a chance at the playoffs to start with.

I mean, if losing 1 OOC game is somehow the definition of the season and proof teams suck.

We are in agreement. I was stating that just playing the number 1 team is not the only factor playing a role in the SoS.
