How come the SEC East and Auburn are the only teams to schedule home and away ooc games?

Not a troll but serious question. The West never plays away games just those first game kick off classics. Is Auburn the only West team with enough balls to do it? What are you guys scared of? I mean damn, do you really need 4 cream puff games a year to pad the stats? Some of you should be ashamed looking at your ooc opponents

What the? This thread is so dumb. Is Tennessee in the SEC West now? What preseason game is Arkansas in? Is Texas A&M actually playing UCLA at the Rose Bowl Kickoff classic? And South Carolina is playing NC State in Charlotte. This is dumb.

Neutral site games provide more $ than a home/home does. Also, recruiting tool so those out of state players can see their team early on.

I would love for us to schedule more home and homes but $ rules the decision making process.

Yep. I'm embarrassed that Bama scheduled a top 3 team to open the season.

Oh, and the SECe is a cream puff enough for the SECw.

Any SECw would much rather trade having to play the likes of LSU, Alabama, auburn, etc each year for the mighty powers of vandy Kentucky mizzou tennessee

Within just the last ten years USC has played at NC st, @ UCF, @ UNC @ ECU and @ Clemson every other year


Alabama has played 1 away ooc game within 10 years and that was at Duke


LSU has played 2 in 10 years, @ West Virginia and @ Syracuse

Lowers tier teams have no choice but to play away OOC games, so there's that.

Could have sworn I watched Arkansas play TCU in Ft. Worth last season. Maybe I was just hoping...

Yea I missed that one. I bet you scheduled them in the midst of the crippling NCAA sanctions and scholarship reductions.
