The problem with SOS arguments is we don’t really know how good teams are now. We can only guess based on how they did last year. As the old saying goes, “past results are no guaranty of future performance.” How many times have we seen a team go from 2-14 to 14-2? It happens enough to be wary of SOS predictions.
Yeah, it is another guideline to help in the master plan. Top D’s have been fairly accurate over the past few years but targeting Dallas is on me based on what I know and see in the schedule. First four sold me.
