It is the easiest to go undefeated in the BIG ten as long as you are not OSU or UMush. This is because they almost always never play a round robin and they have no conference championship game. Since OSU and UMush play every year and they are the traditional powerhouses of the conference they have a tougher time going undefeated then the rest of the teams that may or may not have to play either OSU or UMush. Of course the pollsters will punish you if you go undefeated by avoiding either OSU or UMush. That happened to WIS not too long ago. I will agree with your assessment that it is harder to go undefeated playing a PAC10 schedule..this year. The PAC10 is just that strong this year. People like to write about the fall of USC but the real story is how much better the PAC10 has gotten. I can't remember where I heard or read it, but it is rumored that Phil Knight is really really really trying to bring a BCS championship to Oregon. Other years the SEC will probably be harder. Just so happened that Georgia and LSU were worse than we thought they would be. Tenn was also a mild disappointment. Does any of this excuse FLA for scheduling FIU? Probably not but FLA is in it to make runs at the national title. If they have to bully FIU along the way that is what they are going to do. Personally, I'm hoping the Liar-Supreme beats FLA and then loses to TEX in the title game.
