this is absolutely ridikulous!!! LSU didn't have this same favor done for them when we had to play, what, 3-4 teams coming off of a bye week last season. Including Alabama and Florida.

What a load of complete BS. And the crappy thing is that in 4-5 years the same thing is gonna happen to another SEC school, they'll complain, and the SEC will just say "sorry, we don't have the time or the resources right now to change everything just for one team".

Bloom said the entire schedule wouldn’t be torn up to accommodate Alabama
Yeah right, we know how impartial those guys in Birmingham are.

so that the Crimson Tide wouldn’t have to play so many teams next season on the heels of byes.
Funny, during LSU's "hurricane season", the league office wasn't too too worried about LSU having to rattle off someting like 9 games without a break because of the hurricane situation in the state & the campus being used as a medi-vac area. Nobody in Birmingham was real concerned about LSU playing so many games in a row-without a bye-against many teams coming off bye weeks.
quote:
“This is something that’s important to the entire league, because nobody wants to be in that same position a year or two from now
I'll wait & see what happens when a "non" alabama team is put in the same situation, not so sure the league offices will be willing to "protect" the other 10 members.
League offices need to be moved, having the SEC league offices in alabama is a joke. NOt sure where it should be moved but out of alabama is a GREAT start.
G E A U X T I G E R S!!!

Since 2007, these are the number of SEC games played when the opponent had an open week prior to the game:
17—Alabama
5—LSU
4—Vanderbilt
4—Florida
4—Tennessee
3—Georgia
3—Auburn
2—Kentucky
1—Ole Miss
1—Mississippi State
0—Arkansas
0—South Carolina
I hate that the SEC offices are always catering to Alabama

Despite all this, it's a good idea to consider bye weeks when making future conference schedules.

Looks like some of my fellow LSU fans are already building excuses for a certain overrated coach.
In 2004 the SEC permitted LSU to change the date of the MSU game for the purposes of a rescheduled bye week.

It's the same reason interceptions on Bama don't count. It doesn't benefit Bama.

Where was all that alleged favoritism when we sucked arse? Did the Bham office help us then? Hell no.
Seems like all these conspiracy theories only started when we knocked LSU and Auburn off their pedestal. Sore losers, you guys are.

This is wxactly why the rest of the SEC needs to vote the freaking SEC league office out of Birmingham and Alabama.
Move it to Jackson, Mississippi or Nashville, Tennessee.
Make it happen.

quote:I don't know who is more delusional. The SEC office for acting as if no official schedule exists for this coming year and that schedules have not already been put out by all of the SEC teams or Chris Lowe for thinking the SEC has the power to force 11 teams to move around games this close to the start of a new season.
There’s a reason the SEC hasn’t released the league schedule for the 2010 season.

The guy that approved this is probably the same SEC guy that didn't overrule the incomplete pass call on the field when Peterson intercepted that McElroy pass. What crap!
We got no relief with facing #1, & #2, Florida and Bama who both had bye weeks prior to playing us last year.

I guess bama wants LSU to change thier open date , but wants to keep thier open date before LSU 
B.S.
Another thing ,its time to rotate the east opponent, LSU will always have a possibility of facing Fla. TWICE a year, reg.season and seccg ,not fair for either team, and the season game seems to always set up a gauntlet of tough games with Fla. thrown in there. Rotate the east opponent thats played every year .
