The B10 moved from 16 league games to 18 games in 2007, and I'm wondering how much of a boost this is giving the B10 this year or how much it is hurting leagues like the SEC this year.
Moving to 18 games is like automatically building into your schedule two additional BCS opponents, while the ACC/B12/SEC/MWC/A10/CUSA still only play 16 league games. Doesn't this provide us with an automatic boost, as a 9-9 B10/Pac10/BE team should look better than an 8-8 ACC/B12/SEC team?
B10/Pac10/BE teams should also be able to get away with scheduling slightly weaker noncon opponents, while the ACC/B12/SEC teams need to make up for it.
Also, should Tubby get more slack for his noncon schedule, as he has to play 2 more B10 games that Monson did not have to play?
