Games against losing teams last year

[Sled21]

When they rank schedules, it's by how teams finished the year before. Last year, at the start of the season, even though we played the 4th place schedule, we were tied for 6th toughest schedule based on opponents records the year prior. This year we play a 1st place schedule. This is all meaningless though, as most teams go through a good bit of transition from one year to the next and don't have the same roster.
