[QUOTE="JacketOff, post: 749360, member: 4572"] Michigan played Notre Dame last year. Ohio State didn’t play a OOC P5 game in 2019, but they played Cincinnati who is a top tier AAC team, on the level or probably better than a mid to low tier P5 team. OSU did play TCU and Oregon State in 2018, and Michigan played Notre Dame again in 2018. The Big 10 plays a 9 game conference schedule, meaning they have 1 fewer OOC game they can schedule than both the ACC and SEC. yet they’ve only play 9 fewer P5 games than the ACC has in the last 5 years. Pitt does not play Penn State every year Clemson is to South Carolina what Georgia is to Tech For most of the modern day Florida State and Miami have been on par with Florida. They also aren’t hampered by their own school’s rules, regulations, and lack of monetary support like Tech is. FSU and Miami both have the resources and track record necessary to compete with Florida yearly, and FSU won 5 in a row from 13-17. FSU and Miami’s inability to compete with Florida recently are their own doings, and not relevant to the ACC vs SEC argument. If anything it’s just another point about the ACC being weaker when 2 of its most storied programs are dumpster fires. Another one of the ACC’s more premier teams in Louisville plays a very middle of the road SEC team in Kentucky every year. That series is 3-3 since L’ville joined the ACC. The ACC has faired just as poorly vs. the other P5 conferences as it has the SEC. The ACC went 1-5 vs. the B1G and 0-2 vs. the PAC 12 in 2018 after going 4-6 vs. the SEC. Plus, this year’s rankings are irrelevant to the whole picture of conference power. The ACC and Big 12 were the only 2 P5 conferences playing games for 2 week. Most ACC teams have already played 2 or 3 games, while the SEC, B1G, and PAC 12 have played none. With the Big 12 losing a lot of OOC games, and OU losing to KSU, it’s no surprise the ACC has a lot of ranked teams. In preseason rankings the ACC had the 4th most teams ranked (3 counting ND). The PAC 12 had 2, AAC had 2, Big 12 had 4, B1G had 6, SEC had 7. Since the season started, only 1 team that has played 1 or more games has fell completely out of the rankings. That’s Iowa State. 4 teams have fallen out of the rankings without playing a single game. Replacing them have been: [LIST] [*]Miami - ACC: 3-0 [*]Pitt - ACC: 3-0 [*]Mississippi State - SEC: 1-0 [*]BYU - Independent: 2-0 [*]Memphis - AAC: 1-0 [/LIST] Are Minnesota, USC, Iowa, and Utah now worse than they were 4 weeks ago? Or are other teams simply passing them in the rankings because they’ve played games and have winning records while the B1G hasn’t? [/QUOTE]
