Duke upsets Clemson.

We play Duke in 2025 and 2026.

Why do we seem to have this knack for scheduling non-conference opponents that when we schedule they are at least on our level or worse?

But by the time we actually get to play them, they get better and they beat us? And in some cases, those teams revert to being bad again.

I think this goes back to the initial Mizzou series in STL when Turner was still coaching. Then there is:
Louisiana Tech
Western Michigan
North Carolina
Washington
South Florida
Viriginia (but at least we beat them for the return game in C-U)
Am I missing any other teams?

And now we face Kansas who was irrelevant but now is competitive again.
