ND Schedule ranked #1 (Not in a good Way)

[benneboy]

Rivals has just ranked the top ten most difficult schedules for the upcoming college football season and they have ND's schedule ranked the most difficult.

Here is the link

Does this mean we won't here any crap this year about the armed services bowl? No

Does this mean Mark May can go play hide and go F*** himself? Yes

Don't worry. As soon as we rattle of some wins, they'll say that these teams are in an unexpected down year.

I'm confused. I think that those are just the rankings for the non-BCS teams.

EXACTLY!!!!! They'll make any excuse they can

You are absolutely correct. In fact, it's even more stringent than that.

Today we're rating the 10 toughest schedules of non-BCS teams that advanced to bowls last year.

So, we don't know really how we rank up with other BCS schools, but I think most people would agree we are easily in the top ten toughest before the pre_season. The real rankings (if you can call the media rankings real) don't count until the season's over. Then they sit back and decide what who they think were the real stars and everything.

But honestly, who cares what they think?

we have toughest schedule by far, even more than sec

No way. I couldn't find much, but I did find this website which (FWIW) ranks ND 17th in SOS.

i think you misread the chart. for SOS, the irish are #4. they're #17 in the overall power ranking. UCLA is #1 w/ .770, oregon #2 w/ .727, FSU #3 w/ .712, and ND #4 w/ .682

You crystallized my thoughts perfectly. ND is damned if they do & damned if they don't

My bad. Good point, but you are only partially right. Wash is #1, followed by UCLA, Duke, Stanford, Oregon, Fla. St., Mi. St., and then ND at #8.

I agree Texas, mark may will come up with some reason why the teams we beat are not that good. He and a few of his friends will try and make it sound like we have an easy schedule.

hardest schedule for NON BCS conferences is all that made that list... some SEC shedules should be harder

 

[onenybrother]

Let the Mark May's of the world scream all they want about what type of schedule we play, or the down year some team is having. Were playing a young team this year,so anybody we beat just highlight the coaching that's going on. Not the caliber of team we are playing.

LET'S GO DAME !!!
