Yeah, the rankings might say this is a bad schedule, but it really isn’t. If MN had Providence, GaTech, OkSt, say some lower level SEC team (to match Okla playing Mich), Ben would be REALLY bemoaning the murderer’s row schedule. Michigan is probably well under ranked using last year as the guide, btw.
