Article on American OOC Schedules

I don't even know where to start with how dumb his logic is for not having UConn's schedule #1.

It's simple. If you lose, the game doesn't count. You lose to better teams. Therefore having better teams on your schedule doesn't make your schedule stronger. Only having worse teams on your schedule can give you a strong schedule. Therefore, the team with the worst opponents has the strongest schedule.

After UConn won 11 in a row and the NC, KenPom had UConn ranked 10th. That fact never leaves me when I hear KenPom.

idk, I mean it is a holistic look at a team from November to April. When UConn was hot (Maui and March), we were one of if not the best team in the country. When we were cold, still a top 25 team but probably not top 10. I agree any preseason ranking is suspect but kenpom does a good job quantifying teams as the season goes on. Better than other computerized rankings IMO
