Pretty sure Bama is at LSU in 2014. If not, there would be about 50 threads already about Bama getting LSU at home two years in a row.
You are correct sir. Given the history of the series, you'll understand my confusion.

I would say Wisconsin and West VA are toss ups
UT will most certainly be way better than UK ( apologies UK I like you ).

Rank these 6 teams by toughest schedules
Kentucky and Tennessee have tougher schedules than any of those six so your point is moot.

True, it often appears home is away and away is home in the series. Still rather be at home all things equal though.

Look at how well Kansas State has done the past couple of seasons compared to Florida State. It's no secret that Florida State gathers a lot more hype at the beginning of each season. There's no way of telling how good Kansas State will be, but it'd be a safe bet to assume they will be pretty good.
What have they done that is so special compared to FSU?
Their record over the last 3 years is 28-11. FSU's is 31-10. I think it is easier to assume FSU will be better than KSU by recruiting alone, and it might not be that close. Can't believe I am actually defending FSU for something.
And I missed you guys playing USC as well. That is a tough schedule. I think both are very very tough.

One has been to three straight rose bowls and one has gotten railed the past three years. Sure, they are just about the same if time stopped in 2007.
Note: Wisconsin was the shittiest Big 10 champion of all time last year, but they were still better than WVU.

As long as BIl lSnyder is at KSU, it wil lbe a tough opponent. That game will not be an easy one.

WVU last three years: 2010: 9-4, 2011: 10-3 (Big East Champs, beat Clemson 70-33 in the Orange Bowl), 2012: 7-6.
They fell apart last year, but they haven't been that bad the last three years.
I think Wisconsin is probably a slightly better program that has taken advantage of an unusually crappy Big 10. Alabama and LSU have no business to losing to either of these teams though. The talent gap is extreme.

Wisconsin is 8-6, 11-3, 11-2 the last three years. The Big 10 is better than the Big East (probably what is left of the Big 12, too) and Wisconsin has won the Big 10 the past three years. So there ya go.

Yeah, I said Wisconsin is probably better (although when they have stepped out of conference and gone to those 3 Rose Bowls they been beat everytime). My point in posting WVU's last three seasons was simply to counter your assertion that WVU has gotten "railed." They have been a pretty decent team, including a BCS bowl winner during that timeframe. Wisconsin's probably a little better, but neither are close to top teams and neither should realistically challenge Alabama or LSU.

Which is why I posted what I did. No probably about it, Jack. They have won a major conference the last three years and won more games.

And Wisconsin may suck this year and WVU win the Big 12. Time will tell.
Posted on 8/21/13 at 12:22 pm to MJK16
Florida and Tennessee have the 2 toughest schedules this year.

Whoops! Did not notice Wisconsin. Yep. LSU's schedule would be tougher. My apologies to LSU fans.
Don't forget ULM, the SEC should know by now... that's not an easy opponent
Bama or Arky care to comment?

Okay, Jill. You also said WVU has been "railed" the last three years, which was hyperbole so I was correcting you. It's that simple.
By the way only one of the teams has won a BCS game in the past 3 years. (It isn't Wisconsin.)
WVU is a meh, WI is a meh+ I guess.
