Michigan State loaded up on a tough schedule and didn't look that good this year. Its not a good idea to play a cupcake non-conference schedule, but in prior years you could overcome that if you do really well in a tough conference.
The committee basically said "not anymore". If you play an easy non-con schedule, you are apparently dead in the water.

I'm having this debate right now. The Big 10 is better this year than the Big 12 is it not?
