That it’s basically a one game sample size. The other two games had an undeniable talent disparity which likely factored in to the loss.
I think it’s tough to draw conclusions from a one-game sample.
It would be tough to argue that the Ducks were at a disadvantage in talent, so who knows what the main factors were in their loss. We’d need years of data to draw a conclusion.
Maybe next year the team with a bye wins. Maybe tomorrow Georgia pummels Notre Dame, after which the natural talking point would be how much advantage the Bulldogs got from the extra week off.
