Not really that surprising. That is pretty typical across most big schools. They are the bigger school, with the better recruits, better facilities, bigger following, etc. They are supposed to win this game without much issue. Doesn't mean they will, and I would love nothing more than to go in there and get the upset. But I'm not surprised that their fans thing this is an auto win on their schedule.
It would be like us playing an NAIA school ......
