Not sure which is weirder. "I can't name a single player on their team"

#1 How Iowa got such an easy schedule (no decent non cons and miss - Bucknuts, Sparty, Meeshegan, and Pedo State

#2 How a Bama fan has 2 Auburn kids

A) It's not their fault the Big Ten have them the conference schedule they got

B) Pitt is ranked #25. They're forced to play Iowa State every year, but it's still P5. How many SEC teams schedule two OOC P5 teams?

It really doesn't matter, they'll win their division and then get SMASHED by Sparty or OSU in the Big 10 title game.

If they somehow manage to win that game though, they'll deserve to be in the playoff. In the end their schedule is a bad joke but it's not that much wore than Baylor's or TCU's especially since they don't play a championship game.

UGA didn't this year but most years we have in the recent past. (Tech plus Clemson, Oklahoma State, Arizona State, Boise State, Colorado, UNC, etc.)

Florida and South Carolina have occasionally, but you're correct that most SEC teams don't.

Good line from Iowa football notes: Of 14 undefeated FBS teams, Hawkeyes' SOS is ranked 3rd behind Utah and LSU.

FYI: Alabama and Iowa are the only teams with two Top 25 road victories this season.

But Iowa State routinely loses to mid majors and FCS schools so they don't really count.

Actually the top 25 road wins are over Northwestern and Wisconsin. Camp Randall is one of the most hostile stadiums in CFB.

Northwestern is the lone loss for #10 Stanford and #23 Duke. I wouldn't scoff at them.

I think of them like Kansas, but with better fans and a slightly better football team. They won, what 2 or 3 games last season?

They've been outscored 78-10 in the last two games. They are garbage.

We do it pretty consistently.

Open with either UNC or NC State and end with Clemson.
