The Legend of Bama Favoritism. FIFY.
Posted on 12/6/12 at 8:52 am to Eighteen
So the evidence that Alabama's favorable schedule was intentional is a lack of holding calls on Alabama, and a controversial interception call in the LSU game?
The argument is that Alabama gets highly favorable officiating, which, coupled with Alabama's easier schedule in the SEC for the past two years, leads you to conclude that there must be pro-Bama SEC leaders who ensure that Bama wins?
Did I put your argument together fairly?

If you think the very fact that there is a permanent opponent at all isn't part of this "Myth" then you're just not thinking very critically.
But it ain't got nothing to do with favoritism toward Bama.
UT beat Alabama 7 years in a row under Fulmer. We never whined and bitched about playing them. We never even CONSIDERED not playing them anymore.
We went through getting our arse kicked by them every year and took it and kept coming back and never wanted to stop playing them, so we're damn sure not gonna stop playing them now just because you frickers are whining like little bitches.

I have no idea what you are talking about, I didn't post that in any way shape or form
Did you mean to post this to someone else? I only posted why the OP's post was pretty retarded and really had nothing to do with logic.

I'm trying to understand why droves of LSU fans are creating thread after thread about Alabama favoritism. Most of you want to throw out a smartass "Bama gets all the calls" or "the SEC office protects Bama", but you don't want to be held to a clear position on the subject.
My position is clear: Alabama benefited from a favorable schedule this year, but it was not due to any intention to favor Alabama by anyone in the SEC.
If someone disagrees with this, let them state their actual position, not just a quick one liner and then back off when the word "conspiracy" gets associated with it.

these games were hand picked and chosen, and Alabama got the easiest draw and LSU got the hardest two years in a row...there is no "luck of rotation" involved.
You're right; you certainly didn't even remotely imply that there is any Bama favoritism in the schedule making process. You also didn't complain that LSU got the raw end of the deal by having a tougher schedule.

True.
And also next year.
for LSU? We did not get favorable scheduling this year. Or next year.
That is my position. And the point is why? These games were hand picked with no future or past schedules in mind...it doesn't make sense why LSU received the two hardest SEC East teams and Bama got the two weakest (talking about SC, UGA vs Mizzou, Kentucky). Just as Bama fans complained in 2010, LSU deserves to complain about this. We got screwed.
Plus Alabama and Tenn are the main reason these bridge schedules even existed in the first place is also annoying. The SEC expanded with no plan in place and that also angers and annoys me.
Now, the fact that we got screwed while Alabama benefited is what drives the "conspiracy theory" talk from less intelligent people.

OK just let an LSU guy who grew up in baton Rouge and used to work for LSU, amybe a few family members who played there, and member of TAF do your schedule for a few years.
What the hell that's me. I will Deaux it. Send me the packet!

ETA: and no, I didn't "imply" that Bama had an easier schedule than LSU two years in a row...I said it. Its a fact SC & UGA are tougher than Mizzou & Kentucky...no reason to imply anyhing...

But damn it, we're an amazing program with an amazing coach and we can still fricking beat everybody. Roll Tide!

Congrats on your rivalry with a team that will likely never ever be good again in your lifetime. But by all means, because your paw paw and pappy liked watching this game 50 years ago, we should make all other schools follow suit. This idea is the very fabric of what makes up a bias.
Look if your dumb schools want to schedule each other as an "OOC" game each year, great. Just don't put the onus of a permanent opponent on everyone so you can have your little dick show every season.

It wasn't even worth it, no worries. You didn't miss anything
The OP didn't even no that there was no rotation for 2012 and 2013 and also used SECCG's and Bowl games as proof of how Bama had tough scheduling

11 of 14 AD's of SEC schools disagree with your stance.

"Alabama literally feeds graduates into that place and it shows"
I don't think that word means what you think it means.

The part where I said I had no idea what he was talking about was about lack of penalties, holding calls and an interception call. So once again, can you read?
I am just going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you are trolling me (which I guess you are winning?) and not just completely mentally challenged.
Not really whining, just questioning
