    Power-conference teams are also less likely to lose to bad teams, because the power-conference teams usually play those games at home. Most of their poor opponents are found in the nonconference schedule, where they have the economic leverage to schedule programs from lesser conferences.

    Dead on target. I've been saying this kind of thing since back in the days when we lost a bid after losing to USL in the conference final (that last team before we fell off the map)

    The sad irony is that we will continue to schedule the worst possible teams no matter what system they use to gauge it.
