But there is obvious pro bama favoritism


Amazing statement and absolutely no proof of such.

This went about as expected. You're right, Eighteen, I was posting to "you" in a general sense, not you specifically.

I am not naive enough to think I have done any good clarifying this, I'm sure we'll have a million "They cheat for Bama" posts from here on out despite the conversation...but it was gratifying to spell it out and see most of the conspiracy theorists move on and stop arguing.

If there is an SEC front office bias, it's toward money. Bama's making the money right now.

Consider 2010 when Slive was presented with the situation of Cam's dad shopping Cam. SEC own bylaws dictated Cam should be ineligible at every SEC school. (this was prior to NCAA actions)

At the time Slive was presented with the dilemma, it was only Auburn who could make it to the BCSCG. Slive ignored his own rule in favor of Auburn, Bama's rival.

Obvious money grab.

If you understand math and statistics you certainly see a bias in the number of penalties called.


I have watched every Bama game this year, and I have seen more than a few calls not go our way that could have. SO STFU ABOUT THIS.

This kind of shite has happened to us ALL YEAR LONG. But we dont bitch and moan about shite like that, because we arent LSU fans.

gumps are stupid



of course Bama gets favorite treatment, just like other high profile teams/programs


the sad part is that you won't admit it


not gonna change so what's the problem? everyone knows it's the case and everyone knows it won't stop


shite if I were a bama fan (before I killed myself) I would embrace it and say yeah bitches we get the calls, deal with it


but the gump, in his sad state of life, can't allow himself to even think of bama getting a break, cause then they'd have to admit God doesn't give a shite about Bama football

The 2012 and 2013 schedules were part of Mark Womack's responsibility. Tuscaloosa native, bama grad, worked in bama's athletic department.

NO CHANCE of bias there.


And regarding the UT rivalry "must", the OU - Nebraska game was and is far more relevant than UT and bama. Give that a rest.

AND, if accepting the fact that "permanent" opponents will stay, then why not have just your divisional games count toward going to the SEC title game?

USC and LSU voted for this measure in Destin during the past conference meetings. bama voted against that measure.

Gee, could it be because they know they have the easiest road? Pussies.

Give me the theory that explains why Alabama didn't play Georgia this year, and also had more division home games than any other team in the league.

My theory is that there is Bama favoritism, so the unfair schedule that favors them results. Explain to me why Alabama, and only Alabama, got an unfair schedule in 2012, if my theory is wrong.

If the SEC and Mark Womack had any integrity on the 2013 schedule, they would have flipped bama and LSU games against KY and GA.

THAT would have been fine.

Maybe we need an Auburn grad working on this?
