Prayers sent to Arkansas. I see them going 3-9 (0-8 SEC) again.

And of course Alabama has the easiest schedule in the SEC again.

It helps lower your schedule ranking when you don't have to play yourself.

Or when you get to play teams like West Virginia, Florida Atlantic, Southern Mississippi, Arkansas, Tennessee, and Western Carolina...

Not to say they set it up like this or anything. The game against West Virginia was set up years ago, while they were really good. Either way, Alabama has lucked up with some incredibly easy schedules for a couple of years now.

Bama is such a joke. Sec team with the 95th toughest schedule is a disgrace to the SEC. And it is the same every year. If I was a Bama fan, I would have been pissed last year only having a few games worth watching all season.

Three years ago, West Virginia and Florida would've put Bama near the top in terms of SOS.

They are the luckiest sons of bitches when it comes to scheduling.

It's kinda skewed, Northern Illinois went like 13-1 but they're gonna suck dick this year.

Honestly I don't see it as Alabama's fault. They can't help that UT, Arky, and WV are trash right now. There's nothing they could do about that.

And inversely, this is why Arky has the toughest schedule.

And we went 14-0 and won the national championship when our strength of schedule was Top 5 in the nation. We can win the whole thing with or without an easy schedule.

I wouldnt call it lucky. As an Aubie, I would hate it if AU only played a couple of games a year worth watching. Would take a LOT of fun out of the season. I look forward to, plan around, and make an event out of big AU games that I'm excited about days before the game. When AU is playing a nobody, not so much.
