Title: Top Ten Toughest Schedules (CBS) Post by: BAMAWV on May 29, 2012, 04:36:31 AM http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/blog/bruce-feldman/19184201/top-10-list-toughest-schedules-of-2012
Quote This week's Top 10 list: Toughest schedules in 2012. To help figure things out, I awarded a point system to every team's opponents: 1 for a “cupcake;” 2 for a decent team; 3 for a top 40 caliber opponent; 4 for a top 20ish opponent; 5 for a Top 5 heavyweight. I'd also bump up the point total, usually half a point, if it were a road opponent. (When it came to ties, such as Michigan vs. KU vs. Ole Miss, I factored in things like sequencing -- meaning the Alabama into Air Force game makes AFA a bit tougher than it would normally be. Same for Ole Miss having an easier opening month.) The Notre Dame schedule does look tough but then there is a huge drop-off.

Auburn: The Tigers open with one of the most exploded teams in the country, facing Clemson in Atlanta. Then visit Miss. State. Their conference schedule isn't as ominous as Ole Miss because at least Auburn gets to host LSU, Arkansas, Georgia. Of course, the Tigers do have to go visit their archrival Alabama. Points: 39.25 Title: Re: Top Ten Toughest Schedules (CBS) Post by: 2Stater on May 29, 2012, 08:07:53 AM FIFT. I do not get the Clemson love. Not one bit. Quote 7.

Points: 39.25 I thought the same thing and then they go on to mention playing Miss. St. Ooooh, however will they manage those 2 juggernauts?

After that Bowl game you give him 6 more years????? ???

Yeah, but think about it, he's only given up 70 points once since he's been there. :lol: Title: Re: Top Ten Toughest Schedules (CBS) Post by: SeniorTSM on May 29, 2012, 01:56:31 PM http://www.postandcourier.com/article/20120526/PC20/120529296/swinney-contract-extension-talks-progress-though-deal-not-finalized-according-to-agent
Guess its not a done deal yet...hmmmm Title: Re: Top Ten Toughest Schedules (CBS) Post by: McBaman on May 29, 2012, 04:28:46 PM Good that some member of the press is looking at SOS, but better if he will review his rankings at mid-season and again at the end of the season. There are always in-season surprises that affect SOS.
