Looking at a comparison of non-conference schedules between Connecticut and Notre Dame and the team records as of today Monday, December 5 I was surprised because I thought Notre Dame had a lot of weak teams as compared to Connecticut. They may not have been ranked teams but they certainly were not poor teams either. Here is what I discovered.
Connecticut Notre Dame
Florida State 8-1 Fordam 6-2
Baylor 9-1 Central Michigan 6-2
LSU 6-2 Green Bay 6-1
Dayton 3-5 UL Lafayette 1-8
Chattanooga 4-6 Washington 8-1
DePaul 5-2 TCU 5-2
Texas 2-4 Iowa 6-3
Notre Dame 8-0 Valparaiso 4-4
Kansas State 8-0 Connecticut 7-0
Ohio State 6-3 DePaul 5-2
Nebraska 3-5 Toledo 6-1
Maryland 8-0 Michigan State 7-2
South Carolina 6-1 Chattanooga 4-6
My feeling is Connecticut's schedule is tougher just that Notre Dame didn't schedule all softies. Looking forward to Connecticut to win on Wednesday !!
