NCAA FBS Strength of Schedule as of November 13

In the previous post, I talked about how I measure NCAA FBS strength of schedule. Now I want to use this strength of schedule measure and examine the teams in the top 25 of the BCS rankings after the weekend of November 13th. Here they are in the table below.

Rank		Team		BCS Average		SOS
1		Oregon		0.9753		78.60
2		Auburn		0.9687		55.09
3		TCU		0.8966		71.09
4		Boise State		0.8634		77.56
5		LSU		0.8243		57.20
6		Stanford		0.7553		72.20
7		Wisconsin		0.7258		73.60
8		Nebraska		0.7203		80.20
9		Ohio State		0.6674		69.30
10		Oklahoma State		0.6601		63.60
11		Alabama		0.6151		64.00
12		Michigan State		0.6066		57.80
13		Arkansas		0.5133		61.20
14		Oklahoma		0.4728		61.80
15		Missouri		0.4563		60.90
16		Virginia Tech		0.3676		71.20
17		South Carolina		0.3244		46.50
18		Nevada		0.3016		79.78
19		Texas A&M		0.2788		56.90
20		Iowa		0.219		61.60
21		Mississippi State		0.177		48.50
22		Arizona		0.1413		68.00
23		Utah		0.1109		76.70
24		Miami (FL)		0.0885		54.40
25		Florida State		0.0415		57.70

As you will notice, Oregon's strength of schedule is larger (easier) than both Boise State's and TCU's. Yet, I have not heard anyone question the legitimacy of Oregon playing in the NCAA championship game. I wonder why?
