I just think its funny that you are acting like Uga has played a group of strong programs ooc when the majority have been the same type of weaklings sc has played.

Lets take a look at Auburn's OOC schedule the last 5 years:

2015
Louisville
Jax State
San Jose State
Idaho

2014
San Jose State
Kansas State
Louisiana Tech
Samford

2013
Washington State
Arkansas State
Western Carolina
Florida Atlantic

2012
Clemson
University of Louisiana at Monroe
New Mexico State
Alabama A&M

2011
Utah State
Clemson
Florida Atlantic
Samford

See what I mean? One team a year with a pulse then three cupcakes. We TYPICALLY schedule 2 teams with a pulse and two cupcakes. Then our permanent West opponent is Auburn....which is usually a pretty tough draw. So, that's why I don't totally buy into the "Richt pads his win totals against cupcake" argument.

I tried my best to make it pretty clear. You can get one game away from bowl-eligible by 3 cupcakes, Vandy and Kentucky. Even the injury-decimated Dawgs of 2013 hung pretty tough with Mizzou till the end.

Without knowing anything about OOC scheduling for a given year, Tennessee and Florida are likely our toughest games. Auburn, historically, is literally a toss up. It's dead even. Thankfully, Richt has owned the Barn. The true wild card on any schedule is the other team from the West that rotates in.

CMR typically sleepwalks to 7 wins. It looks like they want a big OOC game every other year, which is great to me. So long as we're ready for it, I'm down with that.

At least a dozen people in this thread have said it - it's not Richt's wins that bother us so much as the losses, and by extension how those losses come.
