[QUOTE="bobongo, post: 488637, member: 3893"] 1. Of course strength of schedule matters. It isn't a "concession", it's a fact I've never denied and have stated several times. The rankings are imperfect, and will always be so no matter the criteria because each team only plays a tenth of the teams out there. Thus, SOS is equally important as record. 2. Now wait. You just said rankings are making "claims" about who's the better team. I think rankings, as imperfect as they are,[I] ought [/I]to be based on who has earned them, not "who's better" on a piece of paper. Why bother with the game if it's just about who's better on paper? Just give it to Alabama and forgo the season. 3. Yes, PPDvP5 is a garbage stat for determining rankings. So are all the other stats. You play the game not to run up stats, but to win games on the scoreboard. Thus, rankings [I]should [/I]be based on that (and who you're playing), not stats. If it correlates with today's ranking, fine. Maybe it does now, and maybe not later on. But in any case it's not the object of the game and shouldn't be considered for rankings. [/QUOTE]
