Good, solid noncon schedule. No real big, BIG names on there, but if you notice, not a single "cupcake". No bad opponents. That's the magic secret to the SoS.

You have cracked "the code"!

C'mon AS... the Illini are a HUGE name - right?

I noticed that Bradley was listed highly for the SOS category on Ken Pomeroy's site. Question: Does SOS consider only the teams you have actually played to date, or does it look at the overall schedule too and take future opponents into consideration? I don't discount Arizona's #1 rating, but prior to the Pac-10 schedule, the only true road game the Wildcats played was at Virginia, and UA lost! Of course, Arizona's home non-conference schedule is much more attractive than Connecticut's.

It only looks at the teams played already to my knowledge.
Game like the BracketBusters and tournaments obviously can't be factored in advance since you don't know your opponent, but they do get factored as soon as the game is played.
