I am a huge believe in analytics when it comes to CFB rankings. SP+, F+, FEI, FPI, etc.

I knew Ohio State's schedule was tough, I didn't realize how tough Texas' was.

Personally, looking at Texas' schedule, I'm surprised it is rated as the hardest.

There's a good chance most of those teams (Tennessee, Florida, LSU) are 7-5 teams at the end of the season, with others being below .500

So glad we are agreeing to jeopardize our playoff chances by voluntarily playing Ohio State after what happened last year 🙂

Our SEC schedule wasn't hard enough, I guess.

Bro, you are Texas. You shouldn't be afraid of anybody.

Now just make the CFP committee care about SOS.

This is the biggest obstacle for sure ...

Playing disciplined football, and being able to run the football to close out games against this schedule. 

Extremely difficult schedule ... Muschamp has his work cut out for him due to the QB's on the schedule and offensive ability

There is a difference between being afraid and unnecessarily making something harder for yourself.

The last three national champions have played a combined zero P4 opponents in nonconference play. That is not a coincidence.
