Can you compare the schedules for last year? Not doubting you; just can't recall.
I don't know where to look up strength of schedule, but looking at the best teams each played, MSU played three of the top five teams in the country in SDSU, EWU, and Weber. Then of course had playoff teams Incarnate Ward and, cough cough, NDSU. um played........ #6UCD. Also played MSU of course and 6-5 UNI. I think those were the best teams you faced?
Last year Cats slung shit to the Griz about what an easy schedule they had and this year Griz fans will do the exact same thing.
Combined record of Cat opponents last season was 62-40. Combined record of Griz opponents was 42-45.
Though all of this means nothing and simply gives us another thing to piss and moan about in July...
Sagarin ratings at year end (prior to Ndsu) has the Cats with a tougher overall schedule, but only by like 10 slots (142 vs 152). Was pretty close.
