CB Bradley Roby (2x All B1G)

Is this a joke? They missed PSU and UW, the 2nd and 3rd place teams in the Leaders Division.

In crossover games,

MSU played OSU, Wisc, Indiana
Nebraska played OSU, Wisc, PSU
scUM played OSU, Illinois, Indiana

So, at best, scUM played the third toughest schedule in the Legends Division. Which, of course, doesn't even bring up the teams in the Leaders Division. So, yeah, the notion that scUM played the toughest in conference schedule is laughable.

Michigan played the three highest rated teams in the conference (@ Ohio State, @ Nebraska, home against Northwestern). After a second look, Nebraska may have had the toughest. They played the same three teams along with PSU and Wisky.


Oh...and Roby is awesome.

Throw a little preseason hype, a title run, and maybe some forced fumbles in the mix and the sky is the limit for Roby when it comes to post season hardware if he returns next year.

As far as draft status, if Roby isn't projected in the first round at this point I'm not sure why (youth?).

The other exciting thing about a return is that Meyer mentioned Roby wasn't motivated during practice in the beginning. It will be amazing to see what he can do on the field with another full year of motivated off-the-field effort under Marotti and Meyer.

...so did Michigan State. And Michigan State played Wisconsin, whereas scUM did not.

Agreed. And MSU had the 2nd toughest. As I said, scUM had, at best, 3rd toughest in the Legends Division.

Oh...and Roby is awesome.

Agreed.

If Roby isn't projected to go first round, I hope he comes back. He's a first-round talent, and I think a year of Buckeye football where we won't have the bowl ban will help make that evident to the scouts.

The added coin associated with being a first-round pick should compensate for the additional wear and tear of another collegiate season.

Better than Bill Snyder or Brian Kelly?

Shhh, going from unranked to #1 and in the national title is nothing compared to winning 1 game more than expected after a child sex scandal.

Ped State dropped the bar so low after the bad start that all of the sudden people forgot they still had useful players. Win 8+ games each of the next 3 years and I'll be more impressed.

It should have been:

Kelley
Snyder
Meyer
Shaw (Stanford)
O'Brien
