Yeah this is obviously for non-conference only or else it would be incredibly stupid to include a Sun Belt team in the "top 10 toughest schedules." Georgia's schedule is probably one of the toughest overall, but their non conference isn't as tough as others. Az St, Georgia Southern, Central Michigan and Georgia Tech. Az St is the only team that will for sure be going to a bowl game, although Central Mich probably will also.
Florida shouldn't be there either. Hawaii will be absolutely garbage this year and Miami and Florida St are still a year or two away. It's be a huge shock if they lost any non conference games.

Political Correctness?
I agree that Florida's OOC schedule ain't so demanding. But of all teams to pick from the SEC "just 'cause you have to" Mr. Feldman!
I'd have taken Georgia over Florida because they have a long trip out west to play a 2nd place finisher on the rise with a dangerous head coach in their very own own back yard. That game alone is worth twice any of Florida's games. But if you have to include an SEC team, he could have done better. The SEC teams and coaches are so paranoid of each other, they'll accept any advantage they can get to boost their W/L outcome... but not every one (save for TN and GA in particular.) Florida represents the epitome of chickenshit OOC schedules and I'm talking about 20 years of the same old same old road trips on a bus.

This year their scheduled weakend some due to having the Ohio State Blackeyes on their schedule. It's a no brainer that Georgia has the nation's toughest schedule and anyone that plays Florida has the 2nd. haha. Actually I bet mims says anyone who play an SEC team has one of the toughest schedules!!!!
