So Wisconsin doesn't count as a quality win but Iowa does? Because Wisconsin has 2 losses, one to us and one by 4 pts to Iowa in which they outgained Iowa 320-221 and turned the ball over 4 times. They are basically the exact same team.

I'm still trying to figure out why Iowa's schedule is considered so high? They've played who? Northwestern (who is a good team)? Who else?

They haven't played murderers row but they have played a bunch of decent teams

Pitt (7-3)
@ Wiscy (8-2)
@ Northwestern (8-2)

And then a bunch of 5-5/4-6 teams (Illinois, Minny, Indiana).

Since Wisconsin is better than anyone you've played by far, this is why we don't take YOU seriously.

Because Wisconsin is a win over a ranked team? Both current and past?


GFY.

Meh. None of this is going to matter once AU gets their foot up bamas arse in a couple of weeks.

Wisconsin is a better football team than Iowa. Wisconsin has been decimated with injuries this year. They've played bama and Iowa with a converted DB and linebacker at RB because they had no RB's and have the number one scoring defense in the nation I believe.

That being said schedule means absolutely nothing. The Green Bay Packers could play 11 FCS teams but if they play Bama in the Sugar Bowl they are beating that arse by 60 points.

I thought you would have offed yourself by now. Apparently no dose of reality is big enough to slow down your auburnism.

Wrong (about the scheduling, not about Green Bay). Playing a tougher schedule does two things, which actually contradict each other. It makes your team more mature, more aware of the level of effort needed to win a big game. But it also exposes your players to injury, ESPECIALLY physical games. Waltzing through a Big Ten flufffest doesn't prepare you for the playoffs. But that doesn't guarantee anything - you can still overcome that disadvantage. It IS there, though.

Come on Crimson

This injury thing is just so ridiculous. Ive already read a million times about the injury narrative. We all love the SEC but these other conferences have big guys too and people get hurt. Braxton Miller got hurt. You make it seem like playing Minnesota is like playing a 13 year old team.

That's just homerism at its best and being a dumbass at its worst.

Enjoy the good football team at bama. Why do bama people have to whine and excuse every time they lose which is very few but dang, the SEC west is one of the most overrated things since Ronda Rousey

Wisconsin who plays a big ten schedule has these injuries. Their only two RBs, the starting TE, the second best WR, 3 starting Oline for the year. The QB even missed a game.

Come on. Teams and players get hurt no matter where you play

As much as Bama fans tell us how bad we suck, don't be using us to prop up your strength of schedule.

Who the frick is whining? All I did was make a general observation about scheduling.

And this season, we have not been negatively affected by injuries since the season started. We've lost some key players in spots but not for the whole season.

Why be a dick?

None. We are still bama's Daddy at the Hare.

Nothing changes this year and we will be 9-4 vs bama in AU when it's over.

Crimson,

I guess I didn't get your point.

Are you saying that Ohio State cant win the playoff because they didn't play anybody the first 9 weeks

or Bama is at a disadvantage because they will get hurt more playing tougher teams

the first point could have some validity, but OSU is going to be playing a way tougher schedule than Bama the last three weeks so that might be moot

The second point is not valid to me at all. These are all real conferences with big time football. Some might not be as talented, but if you are talking Big Ten specifically, that's probably one of the most physical conferences in the nation
