VT plays the easiest schedule in P5 according to ESPN
Don't think that's a surprise to anyone here, but here's the passage from the article.
"South Carolina faces toughest schedule
It's no surprise given that the Gamecocks face both participants in last season's national championship game (in addition to a road contest at Georgia), but Will Muschamp and his team are staring at the hardest schedule in college football. As a result, the Gamecocks are projected to win only 6.1 games despite being FPI's No. 18-ranked team.
Difficult slates abound across the SEC -- which boasts 10 of FPI's top 20 teams -- and the Pac-12 due to aforementioned depth. The teams with the 10 most difficult schedules all play in one of the two conferences. At the top, South Carolina is followed by USC, Florida, Stanford and Georgia. The Crimson Tide rank 20th in strength of schedule.
Virginia Tech faces the easiest schedule among Power 5 teams."
