Schedule-oids are active in Seattle

Washington gets knocked for playing us, but OSU, Michigan and PSU got the easy win as well. The good news for Washington was their strength of schedule was better than those teams I believe.

Problem is UW only good win was Colorado, whereas each of OSU UM and PSU had multiple top-10 wins
 
Apparently it wasn't a "problem" at all.

I am glad the committee looks at the full body of work and doesn't automatically say "bad SOS, you're done," or "not a champion, go away." But it does lead to confusion when what seems to matter one year doesn't the next.

True. But this is the same argument the SEC used to make when they took credit for beating conference foes. We never really knew how good they were since their OOC was crap. The eye test told us they were good (and bowl records). SEC fans could say the same about the B1G this year. Washington's conference SOS helped them in overall SOS.
 
If Washington missed the CFP, you bet your butt they would try to get out of coming to Piscataway.
