I think this is probably one of my biggest problems.
Would you rather schedule a "tougher" schedule or a relatively easy schedule assuming your going to have a good team? I try to schedule weaker with rebuilds but still doesn't really happen.
So for example playing like a 50 SOS and going 10-0 in conf against all sims or going 6-4 with 15 SOS against majority humans, Iguess it depends on your conf, as its better to maybe play the 50 SOS and go 10-0 in non conf if maybe you only expect to go 10-6 in conf. While having your SOS get better and a 6-4 might be better if you have an empty conf.
For scheduling good sims, I just look for a team with a bunch if Jr's with decent ratings or even sophmores with decent ratings or previously human coached teams that have a lot of those human recruits returning, also makes sense to schedule those heavy jr teams with empty conf as that inflates their W-L record and in the process your SOS?
