re: Let's take a look at Indiana's brutal first 6 games on the schedule

That’s just not true. And it’s hilarious you think it is. In 2025, every single one of the 18 schools had a P4 game scheduled.

Except for:

Indiana - Old Dominion, Kennesaw State, Indiana St

Maryland - FAU, NIU, Towson

Rutgers - Ohio, Miami (OH), Norfolk State

Northwestern - Tulane, Western Illinois, ULM

Penn State - Nevada, FIU, Villanova

Yeah, that’s this season. It’s one season. Last season, every single one of them played a Power conference OOC.

You’ll find this in the SEC when they move to 9. There aren’t always options for OOC power teams with all the leagues expanding in league play.

AI lied to me…

That said. You didn’t show that most of the league plays nobody OOC. It’s an 18 school league. The vast majority are playing 10 power conference games.

That’s fine. I was just clearing up the comment that all 18 played a P4 OOC.

Cig and Indiana are the biggest offenders.

Cig won’t play a major OOC opponent until 2030 when they travel to Notre Dame, and will not have played one in his first 6 seasons (canceled Louisville in 2024 and 2025, canceled UCONN in 2026, and canceled UVA in 2027-28).

It’s a genius strategy, but it’s a load of crap when he’s talking about the SEC “whining,” given that Indiana’s schedules are built to allow them to be able to lose their 1 or 2 biggest conference games and still get into a playoff.

Ain’t nothing like having six week 0’s to get ready for the meat of your schedule

Take a glance at Ohio State’s schedule this year and get back to me
