Check out this story. If Bowling Green and Marshall had played us instead of Western Ill and ULM, our strength of sched would be 12th instead of 63rd. In addition, it would change many of the comp polls that also look @ SOS. We desperately need to up the buyout clause on these contracts. So, BG and Marshall cost us a shot @ this years NC. Next question, has Virginia Tech cost us a shot @ next year's national championship? http://www.geocities.com/rtell/body.html
OMG, if someone complains about Bowling Green in relation to our SOS this year, I might just go insane.
If this type of thing keeps up, schools should add clauses to these contracts that hold teams that back out liable for damages caused by reduction in strength of schedule at the end of the year.
