Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 2849609, member: 652"] See here is thing I hate margin of loss factors in these narratives. Teams can just chit the bed one week because of turnovers or penalties. Style points really shouldn’t matter if you play a hard schedule. Style points should only really matter for teams like UCF who don’t play hard schedules. If you are a P5 champion and only have 1 loss you should be a playoff Contender even if that one loss is by 50 points. Ohio State was a better team than Oklahoma just because they could actually play defense some weeks. They got shredded no doubt but the talent on Ohio State was better than Oklahoma. Style points did keep Ohio State which if that was Northwestern with Ohio State’s resume people would want Northwestern in the playoffs. [/QUOTE]
