100%, SOS should be weighted to account for thisTheir schedule was higher, because they played us, and lost. SOS shouldn't count as much when you actually lose to the good teams you play.

The Committee doesn’t use GC though. Allegedly.Basically how much you dominate games. And by McClintock’s model, NDs strength of schedule was better than Miami’s last week. And that probably won’t get any better this week with us adding NCSU and them adding a 7-3 Pitt.
He had Miami’s SOS at 44, and ND at 40. So, close obviously, but not a data point we’re being pushed by.
We are ahead of Ole Miss and Oklahoma in FPI as well.
ND’s remaining SOS is in the 90s and ours is in the 40s. That will help the metrics, but the metrics already like UM more than the committee.100%, SOS should be weighted to account for this
Love is maybe the third best back? The kid from Missouri is undeniably better.Love the bs Gameday segment on NDs defense being elite. Graphic on the first 3 games and all the points they gave up but have now corrected and are playing “elite” defense. They leave out the first 2 games were against the only actual games they’ve had (not sold on USC). Even if you factor in their win against USC they’re giving up 31 a game in the 3 ranked games they’ve played.
Wonder when we’ll get a segment on our defense.
Also getting tired of this Love for Heisman and other awards hype that is starting to pick up. Guy did nothing against Miami and A&M.
