So instead of playing last year's 15th ranked team, we play the 25th ranked team. Unranked, unranked, 25th, 20th, 12th. Murderer's row.

This is the perfect example of why you need to schedule 3-4 real tier 1 schools and some high tier 2 schools. You never know who will have a down year or face a coaching transition. You still have Stanford riding an abnormal high that will not likely continue through another coaching transition and FSU on a downswing.
