Nebraska is the first team in college football history to lose 9 games by single-digits margins in the same season. They went (1-8) in the Big Ten, and their combined scoring margin in those gms was 0. Lost 8 by 49 pts, beat Northwestern by 49 points.

The issue to me is this: The ideally-constructed conference for winning a nat’l championship is one with 1 or 2 great teams & a bunch of mediocre ones. Not only is depth not rewarded, it’s a detriment, because it increases chances of great tms getting knocked off along the way.
