A conference playoff game. Looking at various schedules, osu schedule is mind boggling considering the talent that they have. Regardless of their pitiful schedule they will waltz into the 4 team playoff if they win their conf champ game. ND plays a much tougher schedule and one loss we're out of consideration because we do not play a conf champ game. Next year we open at Texas, have MSU at home, and go to USC. The following year we open with Georgia. There is zip room for error. To me scheduling means sqaduche.
