PSU's worst loss was also far better than ASWP's worst loss.
Using the Final Coaches Poll, PSU lost to:
- a 12-win #4 Ranked team (tO$U)
- a 12-win #6 Ranked team (MSU)
- a 10-win #11 Ranked team (Michigan)
- a 10-win #22 Ranked team (Northwestern)
- a 10-win #24 Ranked team (UGa)
- a 10-win #31 Ranked team (Temple)
Again using the Final Coaches Poll, ASWP lost to:
- a 12-win #10 Ranked team (Iowa)
- a 10-win #12 Ranked team (ND)
- an 11-win #15 Ranked team (UNC)
- an 11-win #18 Ranked team (Navy)
- an 8-win UNRANKED and zero points in Final Coaches Poll Miami-Fl team
PSU also beat 11-win MWC Champion San Diego State University who finished 27th in the Final Coaches Poll with 55 points. ASWP's best win was against three different 8-5 teams.
IOW, that information should clearly tell you that ASWP is simply fortunate that they did not play as many quality, double-digit win teams as PSU did......had they played 7 double-digit win teams in the regular season as PSU did, ASWP's record would likely be 4-8 last year....
