Is that what you are moaning about? How dare Alabama avoid Kentucky in 2012?


Bama gets Tennessee and Missouri in 2012
LSU gets S. Carolina and Florida in 2012

Bama gets Tennessee and Kentucky in 2013
LSU gets Georgia and Florida in 2013

If you don't see an unfair advantage between these bridge schedules, you don't want to.

Was there a bridge schedule in 2008 and 2009?

Barely.


That's why I don't get all the hype about 9 conference games.

We have a 9th conference game. It's the CCG.
having a rematch in the 9th game does no one any good (if the team that wins the first game wins again, they just punished themselves by hurting their SOS).

Oh. You are absolutely right.
There is no way that Alabama should have avoided Kentucky in 2012. What have they done preventing us from watching that glorious matchup?

To be fair Alabama played LSU and UGA in 2008 and beat them. This could go on forever because your useless attempts are not making any sense.

After about 3 or 4 responses without getting it, it becomes obvious that he's trolling.

Excuse me while I whip this out

Point being after this years bridge schedule, most of Bama's dominate grip on the brass ring will be mostly gone.

Florida and Georgia are both much better in talent and coaching.

Muschamp will have fully installed the Boise St. offense at Florida with the addition of Pease.

Richt might have finally found a good defensive coordinator in Todd Grantham, only time will tell.

LSU has finished second to Bama recently due to horrible offensive schemes and putrid play at QB. The addition of Cam Cameron will definitely fix those problems by 2014.

TAM has Manziel for at least a couple of more years and their talent level will continue to grow now they are in the SEC.

With three 800 pound gorillas in the SEC West, the SEC will be anything but predictable in the future.

You can always spot a troll on the RANT; They always play the Troll card when they don't have anything to add to the conversation.

Manziel needs to learn to read defenses better. He also needs to get bigger and stronger before he goes to the NFL.

Florida, LSU, and Bama shut Manziel down this year when they kept him in the pocket and made him read defenses.

He hasn't even escaped the sophomore jinx yet. If he wins the Heisman again this year, I will admit he is ready for the NFL, but that is a big if.

The Bama fans cashed in on a few trifectas in the past couple of seasons, and they think the magic can't stop.

Good for them, but the SEC is getting a lot tougher--real fast.

What did 11 wins 2 seasons ago do for your team last year?

You're leaving out South Carolina in all your posts, when they've been the best team in the SEC East for the last 3 seasons.

South Carolina didn't represent the East in the SEC Championship game the past two seasons because of the bridge schedules. UGA was supposed to play Bama last season, and South Carolina was supposed to play Miss St, per the cross-divisional rotation.

But no, the SEC just decided to let UGA play Ole Miss at home and made SC play LSU in Baton Rouge. Despite SC destroying Georgia in both their meetings in the past two seasons, Georgia fans still claim superiority and that scheduling had nothing to do with it. They are that delusional.

The SEC has allowed Bama and Georgia to both have easy cross-division opponents for two straight seasons. It reeks of the SEC trying to get the most viewers for the SEC Championship game.

I will agree with you that South Carolina has been the best team in the East the past three years.

I was unaware that they took Georgia off of Bama's schedule. The Georgia Troll on here (meansonny) failed to mention that little fact.

Let the Alabama fans celebrate their contrived SEC schedules to championships.

They get one more easy-peasy bridge schedule to victory this year.

If they can beat TAM, they should win another SEC West title.

They are not winning in basketball or baseball, so let them have a little time in the sun.

Bama still only has 2 conference championships to show for their massive dynasty...

They're the luckiest dynasty ever: A Colt McCoy injury, a mulligan, and a stupid play by Murray gave Gumpville their dynasty
