I can see it now...

PAC-10 in conference schedule is weak.
SEC's out of conference schedule is weak.

East Coast Bias...

I'll be checking back to watch the fireworks.

(BTW, who else did you give a "heads up" to?)

It'll be good though, let people vent and take out the frustrations on CFR and either conference instead of more antisocial measures :o).

Re: heads up. Huh?

Sorry...I thought I was responding to Smog's post. He turned me on to the site. Working my way around. Good place.

Check the scores this year..Tennessee vs. Cal...LSU vs. AZ...Auburn vs WSU...forget about it. Top to bottom the SEC has more teams in the top 10 than the Pac 10 has in the top 20.

The SEC won this year. Even Sagarin agrees and he uses simple averages for determining schedule strength (which favors PAC-10 teams) instead of a top weighted average that would favor SEC(since the SEC plays more teams in the top 20 and more teams in the 80-150 range...wheras the Pac-10 plays more teams in the 20-80 range. An example would be the 2004 auburn team that beat more top 10 teams than anyone ever(4), but unfortunately also played citadel...the same year usc played fewer top level teams(just california and oklahoma) and a bunch of middlling teams...so the simple average sos methodolgy said usc had a tougher schedule when in fact auburn's sched was more difficult to survive undefeated.
