They'll also have the nation's hardest schedule. Based on Face-Off Yearbook's preseason rankings, The Irish's top 10 opponents average the highest ranking. Taking a nod from the NCAA Tournament criteria, Strength of Schedule was determined be ranking the sum total of each team’s top 10 opponents (i.e. No. 1 was worth 69 points, No. 2 was worth 68 points, etc.). Virginia, Face-Off Yearbook No. 7, has the second toughest schedule in the country, followed by Duke, North Carolina and Syracuse. Some notable ones: Georgetown has a No. 8 SOS, and Penn has No. 11. Denver is Face-Off Yearbook No. 2, but it has the 16th-toughest schedule.[/I] [/QUOTE]
