Yeah we're probably gonna lose to yall anyway. Might as well put it somewhere else where it can be used more efficiently.

Can we replace UNC with San Jose State? I feel our schedule is far more difficult than the rest of the SEC.. and that playing a team like SJSU or Georgia State would put us on par with the rest.

We could use the free win

The Auburn UGA game would be the easy fix...not sure why it has not been done yet.

Sure when you start picking up OOC teams like Clemson, Virginia Tech, and Penn State. But I guess you consider UNC, McNeese, and ULM toughies nowadays.

I think Jay Jacobs said no.

Edit: I found the article.

"Athletic directors at two SEC schools - Arkansas and Auburn - have indicated they have no interest in altering their conference schedules."

It will be a cold day in hell before the folks at AU ever help Alabama.

That is your answer.

You conveniently left off Penn State. Don't forget Clemson and Virginia Tech. That big time game LSU is playing in Atlanta to start the season? Yea, we've dominated that game over the past two seasons.

It would be helping Auburn more...10 games and break is better than 11 games and a break.

The league's bitch is expected to bend over and take it. They're just happy to still be allowed in the SEC.

UNC = Penn St (this coming year at least )
WVU > Clemson

Virginia Tech.. well.. we've been there and done that. One of the biggest whippings of a BCS bowl team ever. Maybe the biggest.

Last year I would have loved to traded Virginia Tech for Washington.

Goes both ways dude. Hope yall enjoyed beating the brakes off of LA Tech.

It's also pretty funny that you guys are 26-2 over the last two seasons and have beaten us in two consecutive years.

All is fair in love and war

No seriously I don't think it's an issue at all. I think it's funny that Bama fans are/were complaining about how bye weeks fall when they face an already pretty easy schedule. I enjoy playing a difficult schedule.. if you can't do well against tough teams you have no business in the upper echelon of college football.
