These idiot LSU fans bitching about the schedule are delusional. There have been plenty of times where Bama played a harder schedule and LSU got Vandy or Kentucky. That's what happens when you have a rotating schedule. You guys just look pathetic and jealous.

The SEC doesn't use a rotating schedule.

For the most part, I like Saban's scheduling philosophy.


Saban has nothing to do with scheduling.

There is a rotation of sorts. SEC schools play every school in their division and one traditional rival from the other division. The rest rotate.

You whine as much as an LSU fan. 8 of Alabama's opponents this season are in bowl games compared to 7 for LSU.


Also, Georgia State is an FBS school starting next season - not that it makes them a more difficult opponent but it invalidates part of your whine.

Alabama's schedule is no different that anyone else in the SEC.

IF Florida turns out to suck and the East is average - LSU will have a SoS in high 20's to low 40's

If Tennessee sucks (again) and the East is average Alabama will have an SoS in the high 20's to low 40's.


More depends on the quality of the SEC than it does the "two" FCS opponents. Those games are boring as Hell to go to but they're not the end of the world LSU fans and you whine about.

Want to change it? Stop going to games...no concessions, no parking, no full hotels and restaurants...that's about the only way to get the attention of money-savvy AD's.


Will never happen, and even if it did, would not change anything. A big name school will not come in and play a one-off game, return trips are necessary. Which means one less home game the next year.

2 cupcakes home games(2years) with stadium 60% full makes more money than one home and home with stadium packed.

Neutral site games are an option for some teams, but some fans don't like those either.

Yes he does. The schedule is setup exactly the way he wants it. He also gives the AD a list of teams he will play for the neutral games.

It's funny to me how a lot of rivals think Saban has so much SEC power. If I remember correctly, Nick Saban wanted West Virginia rather than Missouri to join the league. It just so happens the "show me state" indeed showed more money. However, I agree. That is a horrible schedule.

Keep the rotation then. Don't have your bitch boy that makes the schedule swap it up for you. You play UGA and we'll take Kentucky like we're supposed to have next year.

You were scheduled to have Georgia next year, and we were scheduled to have Kentucky, dumbass. That part didn't change.
