Other than Bama and aTm I dot see your sec schedule being that much tougher. I know you listed MSU as mediocre but I think they finish behind OM and maybe Auburn. I don't see as big of a divide between the west and the east as you do though.

According to this article Kentucky, Arkansas, and Missouri all have tougher schedules.


That article uses a stupid method to compute SOS.

So, just go ahead and discount those two top-five national contenders, then.

Kentucky, Tennessee and Missouri are all dreadful. Auburn and MAYBE Arkansas are the only teams in the west that come close to that level of futility. Getting to play all three of them, while LSU plays none and, as a bonus, also "getting" to play Arkie (assuming they're still horrible) from the west makes their schedule tons weaker.

So, yeah, as long as you ignore the difference between two national title contenders and two of the worst teams in the conference, there isn't much difference.

Miami - sucks
F$U - halfway decent
LSU - solid
Vandy - too early to tell; likely average
Arky - see Vandy; possibly worse
Tenn - sucks
UGA - solid
Scar - solid
SECCG - just like last year right
BCSNCG - see SECCG

Basically you are hanging your hat on LSU, UGA, and SCAR with a bit of FSU thrown in.

I'd say Auburn having to play LSU, UGA, aTm, and Alabama is just as hard if not harder.

Well if I am honest and some Bama fan Will crucify me for this but I think our national title contention this season is made likely by the ridiculousness of this schedule. Remember we replaced nearly an entire OL and a first round CB and fifth yr player at safety. My point being I don't think like the last two yrs that we are heads and shoulders better than SC or Florida if for no other reason than complacency. I am taking a wait and see attitude. If we can beat aTm soundly I'll be a believer. LSU is in a similar position but your schedule makes it far less likely that you get there.

You may have to make it undefeated this year though.

he means that its funny you're name says yall have owned the SEC since 1950 when UF didn't win a hoops title until 1989 or a football title until 1991. Basically, somewhat of a johnny-come-lately
