[QUOTE="Pride of Hebron, post: 1433873, member: 746156"] Throwing out the SOS is misleading. Every year the CFPC has completely ignored the SOS (usually for the benefit of the teams they favour). The year OSU went to the CF playoffs without a conference championship, they had a middle of the road SOS. Instead of a pure SOS, they look wins vs bowl teams as their version of SOS. ND had 8 wins against bowl bound teams; 3 in the top 25 (not to mention they beat two division winners/conference runner ups) They also only played 1 'mid-major' team this year (Ball State). And, at the end of the day, an undefeated season is a good substitute for a conference championship. [/QUOTE]
