I wasn't saying we should increase the difficulty.  I just don't think we need to schedule softer cupcakes than the cupcakes we're already scheduling.  Nobody is looking at the flip side.  There are cupcakes out there who can beat us on more than dumb luck.  I'd rather play two garbage bottom feeders like Colgate and UConn, then two equally crappy programs like USF and Cincy each year than 3 or 4 programs people have to look up because they've never heard of them.  Let's not improve the likelihood of losing to a team like Buffalo anymore than we have to.

I've obviously been excluding the Notre Dame series from this because it's pretty much established fact that that move was stupid and shouldn't be repeated until we stop sucking.  If the thread was saying we shouldn't be scheduling teams of Notre Dame's usual caliber, then duh.

2-2 vs. Colgate(W), UConn(W), USF(L), Cincy(L) is better than 3-1 vs. directional school A, directional school B, Buffalo, New Jersey Institute of Technology.  I get that getting to a bowl game is the big picture, but when the bowl game is the Bumf**k Nowhere Bowl, recruits and the media don't care, and the money's no good.
