I agree with SOS seems to be missing from ranking... But which SOS model do you use. I found three online.
BTW, The NCAA for basketball uses SOS for tourney placement. The weekly rankings also consider SOS.
Hard for the Media to rank fairly with so much money invested in the BSC elite...

Nice to see my Hawkeyes crack the top 25, finally.

Well SOS doesn’t work if it uses the media rankings in their calculations.
ESPN started hating on the Big10 when the Big10 got it’s own network. Now that the SEC has one starting next year I bet ESPN starts to back another conference.
