Ohio State's Fraud Schedule

Submitted by alum96 on

Easy to say in retrospect but OSU had not played a ranked team all year and only played 1 P5 team that as of tonight has a winning record...until tonight.   PSU.

Sagarin is not end all be all but look at their weak ass schedule coming into the night.  When you play creampuffs all year and then finally get someone who is in your weight class it tends to be a shock to the system.

Much like the B12 teams we mock for playing no one early, OSU was a relatively unknown quantity.

(if curious, Utah 19, MSU 21, NW 42, BYU 48 for comparison... oh and UM is 12)

Also fuck OSU.

VA Tech 43
Hawaii 159
No Ill 69
WMU 73
IND 83
MD 82
PSU 39
RUT 95
MN 72
ILL 68

I completely agree, however, I took a look at our OOC schedule next year and its pitiful. According to Saragin this year: 

Colorado -  89

UCF - 153

Hawaii - 159

 

Next year really sets up well for us as we don't leave the friendly confines of Michigan Stadium until week 6 against Rutgers.

Ohio State is a prime example of why preseason polls need to be done away with. Returned nearly all of their championship team from a season ago. Yet they have been an underachieving mess all season. Same with MSU until they slayed the "giant" tonight. And don't even get me started on the shell game that is SEC rankings.

They're just scheduling like an SEC school, what's the big deal?

Play nobody out of conference and then declare your supremacy when you beat the FCS.
