That is why they play the games.
Really. Like I said, the bottom of your analysis is better than Washington. That analysis is the biggest cop out crock of an analysis but you go ahead and do you. If Vegas was asked to put out a line on Washington v any of those three SEC teams, Washington would be an underdog. You know it, I know it and everyone here knows it. Most analysis found on this board has Sunbelt bias and this is about the worst. We don’t usually see that from you, however it looks like you just could not resist on this one.
It is not the only viable metric. It's hardly a viable metric at all. Under that method, we would say that Texas lost to Oklahoma, and Oklahoma lost to Kansas; therefore, Kansas is better than Texas.
The best way to assess a team's talent is to consider a wide array of factors together.
Maybe you can say only method but that does not make it a viable one. The test that JAB and I use is more akin to what Vegas would use in setting a line for those games were they to occur. We will get a better opportunity to see how that would have played out next year with a 12 team playoff. Until then, we each have our own beliefs on the subject without any real way to resolve the differences. We should do like good little brothers and good little sisters at this time and just agree to disagree until next year.
