For the record, I did see ESPN post a graphic giving UA the slight advantage of SOS, but the real problem is how/when do you measure the opponents.
UA beat FSU on opening weekend when FSU was #2, but finished no where near that.
The BIG 10 teams seem to always get slightly higher rankings so even though they struggle in bowls, the strength of schedule can be skewed by that.
Happy Festivus!
