The entire SEC will be on suicide watch but I think LSU takes if much harder than the others for some reason. I think LSU fans took the Georgia loss worse than Georgia fans did, it was amazing.

8 of Alabama's opponents this season are in bowl games compared to 7 for LSU.
Interesting
Not really. I'm sure one of those 8 is UGA which wasn't a regular season opponent.
When people have to stoop to say "X number of teams on our schedule are bowl elegible" they are scraping the bottom of the barrel. ULL is bowl elegible and was a Florida opponent. If any Florida fans come in here and say "well, they are bowl elegible" to prove ULL is a tough team then I'll laugh my arse off.
Pitt is bowl elegible.
Northern Illinois is bowl elegible.
Kent State is bowl elegible.
You could have a schedule where every single team on your schedule is bowl elegible and still not play a ranked team. Some people in here sound like Boise State fans from every year before this one.

If it's THAT easy to get to a bowl then it makes it even sadder that including Alabama, UGA only played 6 bowl eligible teams this season.6 teams out of 13...

Which in your opinion has a better chance of victory - Home v UA or Home v TAMU?

If its not interesting then 7 are - either way - 2 of Alabama's non conference opponents are bowl bound versus 1 for LSU.
You don't get to pick the SEC schedule, you do however get to pick your OOC schedule - seems LSU is scheduling the easier OOC games.
Also, LSU's big OOC game... not so much Washington versus 19 Michigan... but thanks for whining about it.

Bama fans should be upset at the cheap victories on next year's schedule. I know I was back in the early to mid 2000s when LSU had too many rent-a-wins.
But if any SEC fan wants to feel better about their OOC schedule then all they have to do is go look at Florida's OOC schedule for the past 6+ years. Besides FSU, the only other halfway decent team they played was Miami, and they haven't left the state of Florida for an OOC game in at least 6 years. It's the worst of the worst SEC schedules.

There is no reason for Bama to play 3 tomato cans every year. It's boring, unsporting, and shameful for a program of Alabama's stature.

Post a naner if you are aware that Bench McElroy is not really an Alabama fan and has actually been caught and called out before.
He is, however, the best troll in the short history of the SECr and it's not even close.

Why?
Here's the difference between me and you Ding-a-ling.
I'm not going to whine about LSU playing Towson, Idaho, and North Texas.
I don't give a damn about your program enough to care. Alabama beats LSU in November that's all that matters.
I understand your need to focus on Alabama though. So, its ok, I guess. Listening to you guys whine gets old but its kind of funny so it evens out.

Please stop using bowl bound teams as an indicator of schedule strength. Read my post above.

2 things:
-The SEC schedules were altered to accomidate the new entries into the league and Bama has the easiest SEC schedule for those 2 years...BY FAR.
-Does your knowledge of LSU's schedule extend farther back than 10 months? Take a look at our OOC schedule last year and get back to me.

I wasn't whining. Stop trying to deflect the arguement onto LSU's schedule. No matter if LSU played all of the armed force academies and 5 Sun Belt teams, it still wouldn't alter the fact that Bama's schedule next year leaves something to be desired. Ask the OP. He's the one bringing it up.

There are 2 types of fans when it comes to schedules.
There are the type of fans that want to prove they are the best by beating the best thereby giving credence to the arguement that their team was the GOAT.
Then there are fans like you. Yoy like to take the Boise State route. It doesn't matter if your schedule sucked or if you played anyone with a pulse. All that matters to you is if you have the crystal ball even if your team is as mediocre as they come.
Have some pride for Christ's sake.

The OP is an alter-troll and as such has an agenda. Which is to tip off stupid threads like this so you and I will have something to do before I go outside and rake leaves.
People bitching about opponents SoS shows a lack of understanding about how SoS is determined.
You can't look at SoS from 2 dimensional aspect - those are the people that truly have no clue about mathematics.
It is impossible to predict how "tough" a schedule will be until it is played. You may think you have an idea and may be able to generally gauge it but you're just guessing until it plays out.
The conference schedule is set by the conference office. Morons claiming a bias will never achieve anything more in life than moronic status.
This argument is tired. It's been tired for the last few years. LSU and Alabama have had little separation in SoS the last few years. Alabama is currently ranked 35 while LSu is ranked 28 in Sagarin's SoS - is LSU's that much harder or are we just discussing this because politics is even more retarded?

You're so stupid you don't even know the OP is troll-alter.
So how about you have a big ole glass of STFU I'll pretend you're not as stupid as all your posts show you to be.

There aren't many who are more consumed with Alabama than that kid. Draconian maybe.

But you can make an educated guess. Is Florida going to be better than Kentucky next year? Is UGA going to be tougher than Tenn?

Don't get me started on that douchebag's SOS rankings. It always seems that PAC 12 teams end up having harder SOS than SEC teams even after all of these years of the SEC proving it's a tougher conference to play in.
Nobody REALLY knows how this year's and next year's SEC schedules were made, but you'd have to be as thick as a cinder block to not understand why some fans are mad and some brush it off as coincidence.
