Well the regular season is halfway over and I thought it would be interesting to take a look at the strength of schedule by team and kind of rank them and see where everybody stands. The way I calculated most of this stuff is off of the current standings at mid-season and its somewhat personal speculation so feel free to disagree. We are to the point now where every game is crucial for playoff positioning and the teams that have played the top teams already are in good position to make up some ground.

1. Grand Haven: They played 4 of the top 5 in Waco, Great Plains, Oakland and Bel Air. Their opponents had a combined 38-26 record and an average ranking of 6.75. They played 5 of the top 8 so far.

2. Portland: They played 4 of the top 5 in Great Plains, Oakland, Las Vegas and Bel Air. Their opponents had a combined 36-27-1 record and an average ranking of 7.5. They played 4 of the top 8 so far.

3. Waco: They played 4 of the top 5 in Great Plains, Oakland, Las Vegas and Bel Air. Their opponents had a combined 33-31 record an average ranking of 8.38. They played 4 of the top 8 so far.

Exactly. Seems like we've kind of let off lately. Are we trying to make everyone else happy by being less active?
