[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 1010323, member: 2426"] The big problem I have with the attitude is that schedules are made years in advance, and we don't have a clue what the strength of teams will be in even two or three years. How do we know what the strength of schedule will be in four or five years? The ACC schedule is set until 2030. The OOC non-FCS games are set thru 2027. Football schedules are very difficult to change year to year. When do you want to change the schedule to something more difficult to have a shot at the playoffs? 2026? What if Key leaves after 2025 and we have a new coach? In that case you have now put a difficult schedule on a new coach. This is something that is much easier to judge in hindsight than it is in the future. Next year's schedule includes Colorado, Gardner-Webb, Temple, mutts, BC, Clemson, Duke, NC State, Pitt, Syracuse, VT, and Wake. Is Colorado going to be great this year, or are they going to flounder like they did last year? Will Deion even be there? The mutts will probably still be good, but it isn't guaranteed. If Kirby is fired for a scandal and half their players leave because of the scandal, do you really want that to be the year that we run away from them? Clemson has been on a downward trend the last few years. Are they going to be back this year or not? Can you answer now, which of those teams will be bowl teams this year? Can you answer now, which of those teams will be bowl teams in 2025? What changes would you make to next year's schedule? Just so you know, it is already too late to make changes to next year's schedule. (Some things could happen like changing the FCS game or some drastic circumstance, but in general it would be very difficult to make changes.) [/QUOTE]
