I hope that wasn't directed at me.....I was stating what I did in defense of GS and SR, who in my opinion, are both better than teams ranked ahead of them! But due to a relatively low SOS both are penalized, in this poll, when the numbers are all figured. You can go back as far as you'd like on anything I have commented on, SOS to me is nothing more than a way to vindicate or celebrate a game due to the "toughness" of the opponent. Maybe I should have been more clear with the word "they" in my original post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tango Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 A question for someone smarter than me... In the SAC, after Wk. 9 wouldn't each of the 10 teams have identical SOS rankings since each team played the same 9 schools? Or is it weighted to recent games? Wondering because the SIAC will be in the same boat next year... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically the team with the highest sagarin rating should have the lowest SOS in those instances.
