Bridge scheduling, get used to it, it's here to stay. Every Dec the new schedule will be announced. Bama will play the two last place teams from the east every year.

And force Ole Miss to always play them at home just because they feel like it ...

FIFY





It is 100% fact that both of these "bridge schedules" have given Alabama a decided advantage when it comes to the strength of SEC schedule.

But there is a reason behind the scheduling issues for the 2012 and 2013 seasons. I'm not saying it doesn't favor Alabama. We all know the SEC is on all-fours 24/7 for the tide

I'm not really sure what the reasoning behind A&M is except maybe that's just how the schedule worked out for next year.


SEC front office gave it to us since our first trip to the Grove was rained on.

it's a fact you georgia fans don't have a legitimate right to bitch about your schedule. you should have gone undefeated last year. you managed to avoid the best of the west and you are now whining. at least try to maintain some form of objectivity. besides, it is LSU that has a legitimate bitch and everybody gives us hell while you and bama get to skate.

Did LSU play the same teams, the last several years, that you fans are now bitching about Bama playing?

Two years in a row avoiding Texas A&M is quite fortunate for the Dawgs, I agree.

At the same time we get LSU at home again. We should be going there since the last time we played(Celebration Gate) was in the Classic City. Plus we also avoided midget nick and his cronies last season.

Are those goalposts heavy when you're moving them around like that?

Cause its a "bridge" schedule according to the SEC. This bridge leads to no where. How many damn bridge schedules do you need until you just revamp the whole damn thing?
