Is a lot tougher than this year.

Next year the Bucks will play 8 teams that played in bowl games. And Penn State would have been mumber 9. Compare that to this year whenever the Bucks only played 6 bowl bound teams.

Running the table (13 games) is a long shot. But if they do, then Mark May can kiss my ass.

How could it not be easier than this year?

I was hoping to be able to say that this year. Instead Mr. May is grinning ear-to-ear and anxiously awaiting College Game Day next Friday so he can tell us how Ohio State will get steamrolled by Clemson.

As far as next year's schedule is concerned, Virginia Tech will be tough but fortunately it's in The Shoe.

The Penn State and Michigan State games are both away. The Sparty game should be interesting. Will the Buckeyes be stoked with something to prove? We'll see.

Good that Michigan comes to town in 2014 so the Buckeyes can continue the dominate the weasels.

I see the Buckeyes going 11-1 or 10-2 at worst in 2014.

MSU is the only one I think will be a real test. VT might give them a run, but I think OSU handles them easily. Buckeyes keep rolling.

Virginia Tech doesn't scare me in the slightest.

I'm sure for whatever reason they will be ranked in the Top 25, get the brakes beat off them by 3 or 4 teams, and then repeat the same cycle next year.

Also, Michigan State will be in for a huge drop off, due to graduation.

Apparently graduation and early out's for the NFL only effects MSU?

It's much more likely to effect MSU than it is a school like OSU.

No not at all, but they are losing some pretty Key players on that defense. Bullough, Dennard, Lewis, Allen, all graduating. Could be more leaving early. Until the played OSU, the MSU offense hadn't been super impressive, they relied a lot on that defense to win games.

And I didn't say OSU would beat them or anything like that, as I'm aware we lose quite a bit on our offense, just from graduation alone. I just think MSU is in for a steep decline next season.
