Have a look at:
https://collegefootballnews.com/rankings/sec-football-schedule-rankings-2023
1. Alabama
2. Florida
3. Vandy
4. Mizzou
5. LSU
6. USCe
7. State
8. Ole Miss
9. A&M
10. Auburn
11. UK
12. UT
13. UGA
14. Arky
Things of note:
Bama won't play us unless they make it to Atlanta. Otherwise, they have set themselves up to have a 1978 Bama or 2019 LSU schedule. Going to be tough sledding for Bama but no one feels sorry for them.
Still think Florida is ranked too high in this list. Seems they should be about #6 or #7 but that's just me.
Vandy has some mildly interesting OOC matchups but otherwise, their schedule is nothing noteworthy. Same for Mizzou.
LSU gets to play an improved FSU team who has improved a ton over the last 2 seasons.
State's OOC schedule is very weak as usual. Same for Ole Miss. Same for Tennessee.
A&M does have it made. If they win the west, it will be because of this and getting some lucky breaks. Same for Auburn (except they do play both Bama and Georgia but ... at home).
Tbh, we should be ranked last here. Arkansas at least has to play LSU and Bama. On the road.
A somewhat fair assessment from this site but off for some teams.

LSU vs FSU has gone from clowns playing a year ago to a CFB playoff game this year. Getting more nervous each day.

Not the worst in the SEC by far but do you really have it made if you play Bama, and both Tenner and LSU on the road?
I think our overall schedule is pretty damn close to LSU SOS. Yes, LSU has FSU. They have Florida and Mizzo but so what? We have to travel to Miami and Tenner.
I get Miami might not be good or may be just mediocre but I would rather play FSU, Florida, or Mizzo than Tenner at Tenner.

So playing Vandy in Nashville, Georgia in Athens, State in Starkville, Cocks in Columbia, and Tards in LoserVille is easy? Gators, Tigers, Vols, and Tide all come to Commonwealth.

No way Arky is behind UGA this year for sake of a West schedule alone
Posted on 8/26/23 at 6:06 pm to Che Boludo
Yeah tend to agree.

LSU doesn't even play the defending National Champions. Therefore, schedule is trash.

Basically if you play in the East your schedule is nothing compared to the West.

LSU vs SEC west last year: 5-1
LSU vs SEC east last year: 1-2

Yeah, because the west really showed us last year, amiright?
You don't watch much football, do you?
Here. Let me help you out.
The team that beat the #1 and #2 west team was from:
A)Mars
B)Canada
C)Indonesia
D)The east division
The team that has won the National Championship the last two years is from:
A) The Western Division
B) San Antonio, Texas
C) The Eastern Division
D)All of the above
If you can answer those correctly we might consider your opinion is worth a crap....but probably not.

We are the only team in the SEC that plays Alabama, Georgia, and LSU. We also have to play Arkansas and A&M. Don't laugh about Tulane. They went to an NY6 game last season and won.
Ole Miss has the hardest schedule in the nation.
Ole Miss has the hardest schedule in the nation.

Outside of FSU, LSU’s schedule is littered with cupcakes between difficult tests. It sets up very nicely
