The ACC is bad and getting worse. It's time for Swofford to step
in.

VTech's schedule this year is mung.

In fairness to these two, WKU is in the middle of reclassifying to IA and
will finally become an all-sports member of the Sun Belt in 2009.

Not that that's much better, but still. Accuracy is important.

OOC scheduling matters of course, but the real issue is overall SOS, and
we won't know what that looks like until the season plays out.

For example, let's look at the final 2007 Sagarin SOS rankings for the
SEC and Big East teams. Sure, Sagarin isn't the Bible, but it's
representative of how SOS is calculated so will serve our purpose pretty
well:

SEC (team, and SOS rank out of 120 teams):

Florida....... 3
S. Carolina... 8
Tennessee .... 9
LSU .......... 11
Ole Miss ..... 13
Vandy ........ 15
Kentucky ..... 17
Georgia ...... 23
Bama ......... 30
Miss. State .. 33
Auburn ....... 35
Arkansas ..... 43

SEC average: 20


Big East

USF .......... 21
Syracuse ..... 32
WVU .......... 40
Pitt ......... 46
Louisville ... 51
UConn ........ 61
Rutgers ...... 65
Cincy ........ 69

Big East average: 48.1

So we see that *seven* SEC teams had tougher schedules than the
*toughest* Big East schedule. That's the bottom line.

Also Furman is pretty good for a I-AA team. In fact the southeast has
quite a few I-AA teams that could probably beat a lower-tier team from
any BCS conference and sometimes a top team (App state says hi) and
would contend in the MAC or CUSA or WAC.

Since those teams are in the southeast, it's natural that the ACC and
SEC would be scheduling them. The Southeast doesn't have the MAC or
the WAC handy to provide patsies for low travel costs, we have very
good (for I-AA) I-AA teams.

Not that we should be playing them. But Furman and WKU are no worse
than MAC teams that are scheduled by conferences more northerly
situated

Dude - adding Wofford is not going to help, even if they did replace
Duke.

All the colleges in Texas that Texas Tech can schedule but instead they go
to Mass and E. Washington?

That's real weak. What a way to recruit.

For those of you whose OOC is an upgrade to your schedule, you are
correct.

For the rest of us, well....

Ok, so then...

You're an idiot for using this as criticism of the Big East because
it's not their fault...it's the teams on the schedule that are to
blame for not holding up their end of the bargain!

The SEC claims that they only schedule those southeastern weakass
teams because the travel costs are too high to go out of the
region...huh.

When we all know the Big East is by far the greatest conference.
