The SEC is very balanced this year unlike past years when one or two were clearly dominant. This year I think they have a half dozen teams at least capable of beating anyone. I think ND is that capable also. The SEC is cannibalizing itself because of that balance. I'm not suggesting that should give them a pass with the committee but when comparing teams I'm guessing it will be a factor. Indiana may have benefitted the most from what happened in the SEC yesterday. I was not impressed at all with Indiana yesterday especially their offense. One really good drive early. OSU started to dial up pressure and the Indiana o line was awful. Too many free lanes to the QB who was clearly rattled. I think they back in to the playoff and get drilled in the 1st round.

It will be talked about when this 2 teams are battling for position.

How teams played against common opponents is always a factor

And if we played better against Purdue and SC there's a good chance that puts us above PSU

Okay. Now I know there is no reasoning with you and you cannot admit anything because it's against me

So again, we don't need to discuss things on here ever. But you will continue to mention me and talk towards me.

So I'll try again to not speak to you unless spoken about by you

You've shown the type of person you are by not answering the question

13 is significant 🤣🤣

It's a subjective ranking and 13 is not significant

But even it was, we've dominated our schedule more than enough to make up for that SIGNIFICANT difference

You're a dope. Here are the rules as provided by the CFP:
The committee will select the teams using a process that distinguishes among otherwise comparable teams by considering:
Strength of schedule,
Head-to-head competition,
Comparative outcomes of common opponents (WITHOUT INCENTING MARGIN OF VICTORY).

It's in their own selection criteria, that margin of victory is not a consideration when looking at common opponents. It also carries far less weight than wins and losses, strength of schedule, and head to head.

This is the Georgia schedule. The SEC gap is small until you play this schedule. How many games would Notre Dame win?

At Kentucky
At Alabama
Auburn
Mississippi State
At Texas
Florida
At Mississippi
Tennessee

Hypothetical. PSU blows out SC by 28. ND beats SC by 3 in overtime

Will it matter, yes or no. Be honest and not a tool like usual

Miami destroyed Florida by 24 at Florida. Do they get the credit for that?

Old Dominion lost by 4 at South Carolina

This overrating the SEC this year is just wild. They used to be by far the best conf in cfb. Now the gap is very small.

strength of schedule has more weight than two teams blowing out a common opponent, one by 39 and the other by 59. A blow out is a blow out. winning by 39 vs 59 is meaningless. That's what we have as a data point because ND hasn't played USC yet.

Riiight....

So hypothetical if you flipped it and PSU beat SC by 28 and ND beats SC by 3 in overtime...

That has no meaning or bearing on how you would compare the teams battling for the 4 and 5 spot?

You are a lying piece of shit if you say it doesn't because you know it would you just don't want to look like you were wrong

I get it but you're still wrong and still a huge tool. Maybe worse than Chase

Show me where, tag me, better yet post them here. Not a single service has ND ahead of PSU in terms of Strength of Schedule. Link it here.

No Im saying they don't compare margin of victory between common opponents which is what you are claiming.
