THIS IS VERY true..............if not for Oklahoma telling Texas they did not need to be in a Conf with them, the Big 12 would probably already have been sliced and diced too. Alabama is bad but Texas wrote the book on this kind of stuff.
Not at all, Oklahoma, Texas & LSU are traditional powers. Not to mention they could add a Virginia Tech or an Arkansas. As for Baylor, it's 1 game, and they have a winning record against Bama favorite, Vanderbilt. In fact, Baylor has a winning record Vandy, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, some team called Auburn, South Carolina, Tennessee & are 2-2 with Kentucky. They do have a losing record against Arkansas....33-35. hmm..
Yes, much longer than a decade. LSU is #13 in winning percentage, in Division 1A Colllege Football All-Time. Oklahoma #4, Texas #6...
That 10-3 team was a good ball team. That 10-3 team was also 5-3 in conference play. This thread is perpetuating there is some conspiracy within the SEC offices where one team gets a better draw than the other. What you're doing is taking evidence clearly contrary to those conspiracy theories and disregarding that evidence. If you "absolutely" believe people in the SEC offices stop, think about how they can manage a schedule to favor one team over another, your belief is not only jaded it's irrational; bordering on one tainted by delusion.
A mulligan is a chance to redo something, chief. LSU got nothing like that in 2007. LSU had 2 losses in triple overtime to conference teams. We ended up in the BCS game because LSU was the best 2-loss team in the country. Then we beat the #1 team in the country in the BCS game and won the chanpionship. No mulligans, no replayed games. None, zero, ziltch.
Actually, what Les said was that LSU was the only undefeated team in regulation. Bama then enjoyed the same success last season, for they too ended up the only undefeated team in regulation. Mulligan is just cryptic for passing the eye test. For that alone was the only reason, either team, played for the NC. Party on.
2010 Bama: Lost to ranked Auburn, ranked LSU, ranked South Carolina. You beat unranked Ole Miss, unranked MSU, unranked Tennessee, unranked Florida. A very good team? Maybe at Bama. You did get the Bama/Saban bump to finish #11 in the Coaches poll. LSU went 11-2 in 2010 and #8.
Here is the person responsible for LSU's & Bama's 2013 schedules: Mark Womack - SEC http://www.secdigitalnetwork.com/NE...4/sec-football-scheduling-qa-mark-womack.aspx Mark Womack's Bio - 1978 Univeristy of Alabama Graduate http://csvsummit.com/2010/2010/05/1...sociate-commissioner-southeastern-conference/
This has nothing to do with my comments to you earlier. So, you're accusing Mark Womack of intentionally setting the schedule to favor Alabama? His alma mater is only a convenient point you're using to support this conspiracy theory of yours. To think he'd risk his livelihood to change a schedule? It's irrational.
