No doubt we will have a fight most every week.

Good thing we have luck on our side.

Pretty sure Kentucky is in the SEC as well. Need to BOLD so you can see 6 instead of 5.

ps, nice subtle troll of Alabama in the west.

oughest College Football Schedules In 2014


From that same site...
The 10 Most Delusional Fan Bases In College Sports LINK

10 South Carolina - Football
9 Michigan - Football
8 UCLA - Basketball
7 Alabama - Football
6 Syracuse - Basketball
5 Oregon - Football
4 Indiana - Basketball
3 Arkansas - Football
2 Kentucky - Basketball
1 Notre Dame - Football

2 of these do not belong on this list. Interestingly they are both in the SEC.

Nothing like pre-season SOS lists. They're probably less accurate than pre-season poll rankings.

How many times does a preseason schedule ranking have to be proven pointless? Two of Alabama's toughest opponents in 2013 were garbage in 2012.

Florida plays the top 2 ranked teams on the road, and 5 teams in the top 13 of the pre-season coaches poll. I'll put that up against anyone's schedule.

12. Arkansas

This annoys me to no end. It's like people forget that we play in the hardest division in the country AND face a killer cross division slate and out of conference opponents. Bret is going to do amazing things and we'll be greatly improved but people won't give him credit. It's shameful.

We would be 1 on this list if the A-day game was factored in.

What do six of the twelve toughest schedules have in common?

They all play Alabama.

Alabama doesn't get to schedule themselves.

Or, to put it another way...Alabama plays Auburn, Tennessee, Florida, LSU, West Virginia, and Arkansas...and apparently that schedule isn't worth shite.

When Auburn was playing Georgia and Florida every year as permanent opponents, Bama was playing Tennessee and Vandy.

There is some precedent?

Tennessee has a harder schedule than Auburn does.
