Rating The Big Ten Schedules

  • Giving OSU a B minus for not having a ranked team on the schedule (and two ranked above 100) is pretty generous. Their schedule is average at best - C. I don't like the direction they're taking as they should play one elite non-conference program every year. You could argue that a September non-conference loss could knock them out of the final four, but not having a quality non-conference schedule could do the same. I would imagine that quality wins will be a big part of the criteria for the selection committee when they're picking the final four. Not that it matters, but I bet you OSU does not even play a top ten team this year after Michigan loses to Alabama/Notre Dame and Michigan State loses to Notre Dame and possible Boise State. Urban could end up winning his first 20 or 25 games before he has a loss.
