Who in the SEC has the hardest noncon vs who has the easiest noncon and what are your thoughts towards those schools?

We have Alabama A&M. Comparatively, I'm not sure where they rank, but they had some horrific games last year.

We have South Alabama to open, they beat State last year so they'll probably kill us.

Mizzou's non-con schedule is an absolute joke this year. Hard to imagine anyone having an easier slate than this:

Home: Missouri St., Purdue, Idaho
Away: UConn

That is pretty bad. Without looking though I usually assume that Miss st has a pretty bad noncon as well. I think UF has the top 2 hardest and maybe the top 2 worst noncons all in 1 year which is impressive in itself

Don't really know what you'll get with UAB. They've got some guys that can play ball. They'll be rusty as frick though not playing for a couple years.

A&M has a pretty weak nonconference schedule.

Bad UCLA team on the road.

New Mexico, Nicholls State, and THE University of Louisiana at home.

I'd like our schedule if we moved SC and Auburn to later in the year. Especially don't like SC as the second game. This staff is still working out the kinks

Alabama: FSU, Fresno St, Colorado St, Mercer

Arkansas: FAMU, TCU, New Mexico St, Coastal Carolina

Auburn: Ga Southern, @Clemson, Mercer, La Monroe

Florida: Michigan, No. Colorado, UAB, FSU

Georgia: App St, Notre Dame, Samford, Ga Tech.

Kentucky: Southern Miss, Eastern Kentucky, Eastern Michigan, Louisville

LSU: BYU, UT Chatt, Syracuse, Troy

Miss St: Charleston, La Tech, BYU, UMass

Missouri: Missouri St, Purdue, Idaho, UConn

Ole Miss:South Alabama, UT Martin, California, UL Lafayette

South Carolina: NC State, La Tech, Wofford, Clemson

Tennessee: Ga Tech, Indiana St, UMass, Southern Miss

Texas A&M: UCLA, Nicholls State, UL Lafayette, New Mexico

Vandy: MTSU, Alabama A&M, Kansas St, Western Kentucky

Most everybody has a marquis game and everybody has a game you should be ashamed of scheduling. That's college football these days. There's some interesting matchups.
Missouri has the easiest. Lose one of those 4 and you should be kicked out of the league. Texas A&M and UT are next easiest I think.
Hardest belongs to Florida with UGA and S Carolina vying for second.
Sneakiest one belongs to LSU. They should go 4-0 but BYU, Syracuse and Troy are all potential upset makers. Don't rest on your derrière, Tigas!

Terrible home schedule for a terrible team... But somehow people here think it's a BLM protest that causes Mizzou to have 15k empty seats.

I'd say SC's is respectable across the board.

Clemson: Annual opponent. Rolling under Dabo. Don't need to say anything more.

NC State: Not the toughest P5 opponent, but a border rival and old ACC foe.

La Tech: Won 27 games over the last 3 seasons.

Wofford: Everyone get's at least one FCS team and we like to keep it in state. The idea being, if we're going to pay teams to come, at least keep it in state. And Wofford was in the FCS playoffs last year and woulda coulda shoulda beat the eventual champ YSU.

State's toughest Non-conf games the last four years:

Grindin! But our OOC schedule is pretty arse this year, and for the next few seasons. It's curious that our site doesn't feature the 2018 matchup against Texas Tech at NRG in Houston, which looks to be our only "big" P5 matchup in the foreseeable future, and that's just because it's a "neutral" site game. It also doesn't have the 2018 matchup against ULM, but I'd be totally cool with ditching that
