If you look at their schedule this year, they played several programs that have had really good teams in recent history (Texas, Washington, Penn St, Michigan). Wisconsin's hire of Fickell didn't work out but they had been a competitive program for years before that. Strength of schedule ebbs and flows.But they play nobody. Most of the nation only watched them play Texas and Michigan. As a kid do you really only want one or two showcases a year? If you're scared of competition I guess its the ideal spot. But I would personally want to be playing on prime time in the game of the day more often. Which is why it would be only SEC schools for me.
