Eh, they're pretty close. Of course, the big caveat is a lot of this is determined using how teams performed last year, and that may or may not translate to this upcoming year.

Cuse: 15 games, 4 in conference and 11 OOC
UMD: 12 games, 5 in conference and 7 OOC

Common OOC opponents: Princeton
Common in-conference opponents: UVA, ND, JHU
They do, of course, play each other as well.

Cuse conference games: Duke, UNC
UMD conference games: Michigan, Penn St., Ohio State, Rutgers

Remaining OOC games for Cuse: Harvard, Georgetown, Denver, Penn, Boston, Colgate, St Joes, Air Force
Remaining OOC games for UMD: Richmond, Delaware, Loyola

Comparing the dissimilar parts of their schedules, Duke/UNC and PSU/OSU wash each other out, though UNC feels like it has the highest ceiling of the group. Richmond and either Georgetown/Harvard could cancel each other about, but I feel like GU and HU will probably both be better this year. Denver is tough to tell. Delaware, Loyola, Penn, Colgate, St Joes, and BU feel like they'll all be competing in the seem tier this year, but again BU feels like they'll be the toughest of the group.

Air Force and Rutgers are about even (never a bad time to troll the Scarlet Knights).

Cuse has more games and I feel like their opponents skew a bit more potential this year, but the compact nature of UMDs schedule probably helps their metrics more.
