...  I think, that even an extremely ugly win over a drastic underdog -- say, by 1 point in triple OT -- won't uncrimson the Tide or cage that Tiger. Nor would a victorious Florida (10-2) or North Carolina (11-1) leapfrog the Cardinal, per strength-of-schedule metrics.

A one point win in triple overtime is impossible.  After the second overtime, teams must try for two point conversions, which means that the smallest margin at that point would be two points (one team scoring but failing to convert; the other one converting the 2 pt try)
