With the way the PairWise rankings work, a team has to weigh :Is it just me or does the Penn State schedule seem like a joke? Flexing a .764 win % for OOC matches, making it to the Frozen 4, and going all in on recruits like McKenna... to go against the powerhouses of Stonehill and LIU.
1. Is it better to play tougher competition and possibly pick up a few bonus points by knocking them off?
2. Is it better to beat up on the little guys and get the almost guaranteed points for a win?
Option 2 holds the caveats that if you should happen to get beat, it could hurt you a lot unless that team gets on a run.
