Fox Sports analyst rants about SEC fans bashing Ohio State's schedule
Fox Sports analyst Stewart Mandel is tired of hearing SEC fans bash Ohio State’s weak schedule. The Buckeyes play just one ranked team — No. 5 Michigan State — the entire season.
After listening to the Paul Finebaum Show, Mandel let out a series of tweets voicing frustration with SEC fans who oppose the Buckeyes’ schedule.
The @finebaum show is now just 4 hours of SEC fans calling in to whine about Ohio State’s schedule. What is it they want to happen?

We get it. SEC teams play tougher schedules. No one would dispute that. You are all literally arguing with yourselves.

It actually would have made more sense in the BCS. It’s 4 teams. Your champ will be there, trust me. Try beating them this time.

During the SEC coaches’ teleconference Wednesday, Arkansas coach Bret Bielema, formerly a Big Ten coach at Wisconsin, also voiced his frustration about OSU’s schedule.
However, all of the criticism of Ohio State’s weak schedule will fall on deaf ears and is really a non-issue until an SEC Champion gets left out of the College Football Playoff.
