Home games are:

Duke
Akron
Michigan
Nebraska
Wisconsin
Notre Dame
Illinois

Not bad

No 1-AA teams, 3 of the 8 traditional blue blood programs, what should be a great Wisconsin team, and their arch rival (Illinois).

That's not a bad home slate, but they don't have the SEC Champion and National Champion on there, so no. Not the best.

Alabama > Wisconsin
Georgia > Notre Dame
Miss St > Michigan (although I could call this one a toss-up)

Ole Miss, Illinois, and Nebraska were all pretty disappointing last year, but Ole Miss was 6th in the SEC West, and Nebraska and Illinois were 5th and 7th in the shitty B1G West.

I never claimed we did.
It could end up being better than yours or it could not be.

You're not considering the bottom feeders though and I am. I hate cupcake games. Northwestern only has one. LSU has 3

Uhh, no. Michigan drums up much more excitement than Mississippi State amongst fans going to the game. Michigan will also bring a lot more fans on a road trip than Mississippi State.

ETA: Same with Notre Dame. Not to mention Michigan and Notre Dame both have a large alumni presence in Chicago.

I’d rather have our dogshit schedule than your dogshit team.

FWIW, this is a joke but I’m excited for possible responses.

Duke and Akron...big whoop.

Having better bottom feeders doesn't make the schedule better when the other side has the two teams that competed in the National Championship and 2 other teams that actually had a pulse. And one of those 3 "cupcakes" won a bowl game last year.
