Buckeyes bucking strength of schedule numbers
Ohio State’s road to a bowl victory is not any easier this year.
Texas, which many feel deserved to play in the BCS championship game, had the third-most difficult schedule this season, based on opponents’ winning percentage.
The Longhorns’ record was obviously helped by the strength of the Big 12 Conference, which had five teams finish in the top 21 of the BCS standings - No. 1 Oklahoma (12-1), No. 3 Texas (11-1), No. 7 Texas Tech (11-1), No. 13 Oklahoma State (9-4) and No. 21 Missouri (10-4).
Kansas beat Minnesota in the Insight Bowl here Tuesday to become the conference’s fifth 10-win team.
The top 10 toughest schedules, by opponents’ record:
1) Florida
2) Oklahoma
3) Texas
4) Alabama
5) Boise State
6) Utah
7) USC
8) Pittsburgh
9) Cincinnati
10) Penn State
