Scheduling sucks across college football. For the most part teams want to play as many punching back games they can find while not making it look totally obvious and simultaneously trying to argue that they aren't doing that. Said it many times, the FCS games need to be history. It's a complete joke that anyone plays them, and most SEC teams play two I believe. And the top half of the AAC and MAC are somewhat competitive but the MAC, Sun Belt and C-USA have no business trying to play for the same football championship as the SEC, those leagues are so watered down its a joke. Ranting a bit here but go look at some of the schedules played in the 70's and 80's. Everyone started getting soft at about the start of the 90's and it's just gotten worse.
The flip side is shutting them out so as ensuring they never have a chance to rise. TCU rebuilt the program beginning with Fran as a member of the WAC, CUSA and MWC looking for those games against top programs for the chance to win and receive a nice payday, TV exposure and TV revenue, to fight our w ay back to the Big 12.
