I partially agree and partially disagree with this. There are a couple of teams that have so much more talent than most other teams in CFB in Clemson and UGA. Nobody thinks those are hard games because we suck. They are hard games for anyone. Ole Miss is a pretty good team with a darn good coach. That’ll be tough for most teams.Good lord. The schedule is hard because we suck, not because it’s actually hard. Sure, just like every year we play Clemson and UGA. But outside of those it’s not that hard. Sure, we’ll lose a bunch of them but that’s because of us not them. Seriously now, UGA and Clemson are in a different tier. Ole Miss is what we should be which is a ranked team with a 8-10 win ceiling. The Coastal is a joke and we are near the bottom of that joke. FSU is a mirror of us with Norvell. UCF will be tough to beat again not because they are special but because we can’t cover WR’s until we prove we can cover WR’s. You want to see hard schedules, look at Auburn, Ole Miss, and Vandy. We play in one of the weakest divisions in P5 so I laugh when folks say we have a hard schedule.
And then there’s the part where I agree with you. The rest of our schedule is considered tough because we haven’t been a good team. And until we prove it on the field there’s not a lot of reason to think we will be a massively improved team.
So it’s partly what you said and partly that we do have some very good teams on our schedule.
