I have never agreed with that thinking. When comparing teams across different conferences, what's the point of mentioning in-conference schedules? Neither team plays the other team's complete conference schedule. What should be compared is wins and losses as a whole, strength of schedule, and other subjective reasoning may apply as well, so long as it is a contributing factor to answering the question, "Which is the better team?"

Arizona played the toughest schedule in the country, all games included, and won 19 games.
