Same. Since I was old enough go understand what was going on, my dad and his friends always told me that you want the SEC teams to win to make your schedule look that much better. I guess I will never get passed that. It's what I was raised on.

Yea it doesn't make any sense. LSU, Arkansas and Auburn being really good is good for Alabama. It means that wins at home and on the road vs those teams are valuable and it means that losses to those teams don't hurt you.

It's how you get 10 teams into the NCAAT, which I'm pretty sure is everyone's goal.
