Somewhat of a bad example. We mostly beat the hell out of everyone on our schedule except Bama / OM. We were a pretty good team. We weren't bouncing 50 yard passes off of CB's hands for TD passes or combining a 100 yard missed field goal return for a TD with multiple missed field goals by our opponent in order to eek out victories and backdoor our way into the national title game. And we didn't have that kind of luck against our two big rivals like Auburn had against theirs. 2014 MSU would likely beat 2013 Auburn by multiple TD's.
