Just shedding some light on the sad reality of teams who manufacture trivial non significant schedules.
As if it wasn't known already.
You'll be happy to know that the Big Ten is joining the ACC and SEC in dropping FCS teams and going to 9 conference and 1 power 5 non conference games in 2016 and beyond.
The scheduling guidelines set the Big Ten apart from its Power Five peers. The Big 12 Conference and Pac-12 also play nine league games; among the three, the Big Ten and Pac-12 each hold a conference championship game. No other league, however, will mandate at least one Power Five opponent and the elimination of FCS foes from its schedules.

Other than MAYBE Vanderbilt,,,, every team in the SEC would have a better chance of running the table with this pathetic and cowardly schedule than the school it belongs to. There are at most 2 teams of substance on it.
Va Tech (7-6)
Hawaii (4-9 WAC)
N. Illinois (11-3 MAC)
Western Michigan (8-5 MAC)
Indiana (4-8)
Maryland (7-6)
Penn State (7-6)
Rutgers (8-5)
Minnesota (8-5)
Illinois (6-7)
Mich State (11-2)
Michigan (5-7)
No, never.
I was banned here last week for calling a spade a spade.
I was talking about being banned here again if I called CP what people who "boom" their own quotes are called.

Scratch that, I guess no other conference is willing to step up like the Big Ten.

Considering your teams scheduling tendencies,, I cannot believe you are even commenting.
"Today is MINE"
Did you watch any games last year?
They are all back and nothing is better than the chip that is on their shoulder.
Fins, we are in the drivers seat.
Best of luck running the SECSECSEC gauntlet again this year.
