Quote:Why is it that Florida gets no credit for OOC when it comes to FSU? One of the best teams in the country year in and year out? Why is it so important that it has to be out of state? Why is it that you ignore the fact that Florida plays the same type OOC as the vast majority of the power five, yet is ignored?

That's one week out of a college football season.  Week 13 is full of these OOC matchups, UF vs. FSU, BYU vs Utah State, Kentucky vs. Louisville, Georgia vs. Georgia Tech, Stanford vs. Notre Dame, South Carolina vs. Clemson, etc.  FSU has a hard OOC matchup that week, against UF.  However, they also play a top ranked Ole Miss, AND Alabama, AND a top 10 Oklahoma, AND a top 10 BYU, AND Oklahoma State, AND Notre Dame, AND Southern Cal, and so on and so on.

 

I mean don't get me wrong.  I understand why Florida doesn't schedule major OOC opponents away from Gainesville.  During the time period noted above, UF is a combined 5-14-1 against FSU and Miami away from Gainesville.
