Dang. That's worse than I thought. We'd better make a good showing against either UK or Xavier. Or some of our opponents better be better than those numbers indicate.
Bucs will always be behind the eight ball in regards to strength of schedule. Nobody of any consequence will play them at home and the bottom SoCon teams are woeful.

There are only two ways to get a better strength of schedule rating, change conferences or play more high ranking away games, which could demoralize the team and leave Bucs with a poor home schedule with less games, not a good situation.
