You missed the point. No one was making fun of scUM for playing 8 home games last year. OSU does it regularly. Instead, we were making fun of scUM fans who didn't realize how easy scUM had it scheduling-wise last year, and who therefore think 10-2 seasons will be the norm up there. Playing 8 home games is just one reason why scUM lucked out scheduling-wise last year. Other reasons include the fact that they got ND, Nebraska, and OSU all at home, and that they missed the best two teams in the Leaders division last year (PSU and UW) entirely.
