I fully concede that UT's SOS was #1. But OU's was #12. It's not like they were playing a completely different caliber of competition.

My point was, and remains, that Parker is the "Best Player in America" because ESPN wants her to be.


From the College RPI Strength of Schedule page
1 Tennessee 28-3 0.6683 1
2 Duke 30-1 0.6241
16 Oklahoma 26-4 0.5938
106 Ball State 24-6 0.5195

The difference between Tenn and Oklahoma's SOS is 745
to get to a 745 difference below Oklahoma you drop down to SOS #106 Ball State.

The fact of the matter is that Oklahoma did play a completely different caliber of competition.

Candace Parker was the best player on the team that won the National Championship playing the toughest schedule in America. Candace and Lindsay Harding from Duke were the two best players in the country playing on the two best teams with the two toughest schedules.

Lindsay's Duke beat Tennessee and Candace head to head in Knoxville
Tennessee and Candace beat Ol Miss twice and Texas once - both teams that beat Courtney and Oklahoma. Without a head to head contest that's the best comparison we can make.

Courtney was dominant on a decent team playing an inferior schedule.
ESPN had nothing to do with any of that
