1. and bama was in the NC game and who did they play?
  2. bama's schedule has been easier for quite a while, and will be next year even more so. Can you even admit that?
  3. Rabalais is a paper Tiger. What are the odds this rabble rouser had both articles written and finished before anyone set eyes on the first one?
  4. No one is going to say that when they look at the last 10 games and see a 5-5 record especially when they see a UF team that had five, five loss seasons and one six loss season since 2002.
  5. I've admitted that. We are very lucky to have the schedule fall the way it did. UGA has been the last two years as well.

    It's the luck of the draw. It'll change, just wait and see.
  6. Dude you can't be freakin' serious, can you? We played W. Va on the road. They won the Orange Bowl. We also blew them out. Did the same to Oregon...Pac-12 and Rose Bowl champs. Are you serious? Is he serious?!

    Also, West teams rotate home and away series against the non-permanent East team. EVERY SEC team DID that. Fair and balanced. That is luck of the draw. Not this BS scheduling Bama has had for 2011, 2012, 2013 while LSU plays UGA and SC.

  7. 2010, Penn State, Florida, at South Carolina, along with the usual West division suspects. 6 of the 8 SEC opponents had 2 weeks to prepare for Bama. That's only two years ago.
  8. You're asking me if I'm serious in the same thoughts on LSU scheduling West Virginia and Oregon? What does that have to do with this SEC bias that's being perpetuated here? Absolutely nothing.

    You're assertion of BS scheduling in 2011 is irrational. We played Florida, Tennessee, and Vanderbilt last year. You played Florida, Tennessee, and a Kentucky team that lost to Vanderbilt last year.

    We caught UofSC in 2010, you caught them in 2012.

    Expansion and the results of having to add two teams has shifted things for a lot of teams. It was bound to happen and there's no way that some teams would not have an easier path than others.

    That's the luck of the draw.

    Separate yourself from your being wore out of seeing coverage of Alabama as of late and consider this.

    Would you be this wound up if Arkansas was in ATL this year?

  9. For everyone suffering from attention deficit disorder, again, the SEC schedule does indeed cycle around. Apparently with great frequency.
  10. Dude the schedule was set for rotation plus a permanent opponent because your gump group yelled and screamed to keep the tenn rivalry game annual. Now I understand it was because of the traditional rivalry not strength of schedule....but what does that say about alabama's power in the conference? If they don't get their way they will take their ball and leave...That is what we mean by the SEC office in Birmingham bowing before the mighty tide.

    Likewise the old rotation was exactly as you say but it is more than suspicious that the 2 "odd" years the gumps don't play at least one of either SC or UGA while LSU plays both (SC twice) along with Fla as a permanent. The SEC office did that knowing strengths of teams in the 2 years or so they have the "temporary rotation" in place. That they chose to lay the weakest eastern teams with Alabama and the strongest with bama's number 1 threat for leadershipin the west is let's say interesting.

    These are two pretty strong indications...."If it swins like a duck, quacks like a duck then it may be a duck"
