See what I mean? If I were you, I'd be happy as a pig in shite enjoying your run.

Instead, you post in EVERY. SINGLE. LSU. THREAD.

We play Clemson every season butt licker. We've also played the SEC West Champion, during the regular season, 17 out of the last 21 years.

We've also faced the eventual national champion, during the regular season, nine out of the last 21 years.

So don't get all up in a Gamecock fan's face talking shite about how tough UGA's schedule is when we've all heard the story about the picture y'all have of Slive fricking the goat. That's the only reasonable explanation for the schedules you've managed to draw.


It's funny when it is the SEC East

We control everything. Just get used to it. When UGA has a hard schedule the next year, we just pull some strings, like incentivizing the early departure of some key LSU contributors. USC fans have finally caught on.

You coast to an East title and routinely get beat by the west representative that you didn't face. One time you did face them and got dealt with a second time. It is kind of a problem with the unbalanced scheduling. USC hates you for it. You had multiple chances to shut them up and you got your brakes beat off once and choked a game in which you blocked a FG for a TD in another. It was really quite breathtaking to be honest.

Now the exodus. I mean WTF is the world coming to?


Name me a team in the SEC not named Bama, UF or USCe that would not LOVE to trade their defense for this one:

DE: Jermauria Rasco
DT: Anthony Johnson
DT: Ego Furgoson
DE: Danielle Hunter
OLB: Kwon Alexander
MLB: Lamin Barrow
OLB: Tajh Jones
CB: Jalen Mills
CB: Jalen Collins/Tre'Davious White

Great, now you can't say how tough your schedule is because we play them too. GT and NC are pretty equal so there goes that OOC game. We both play the east. So our west schedule is auburn and LSU, yours is MSU and arkansas. Soooo we have a tougher schedule than you, yet you still complain about it.

But Lew, you do know the difference between reality and imaginary, do you not?

I mean the meaning of, "IF and bullfrog had wings he COULD fly?"

We'll never know because bullfrogs don't and y'all never will.

If LSU is down next year, and I honest to gosh hope they are not, then, well, we'll see. You got them at home, we had to go on the road at night ... still not apples to apples but I guess when it comes to Georgia and schedules you gotta take what you can get.

Tommy moffett always makes that list. It's punishment/motivation for missing a work out.


As for the leaving early its a combination of many things. Extremely talented players, players not born into money (a la matthews-not that there's anything wrong with that), multiple kids, having a large amount of their friends already in the league flashing money and the fact that this class played so much so early that they have more time on the field than a large amount of seniors in the draft.

Really? We've played a team in the SECCG 4 times that we didnt' play in the regular season. Twice we killed them, once we got killed, and once we barely lost. I'm not understanding what point you're trying to make.

Tell me about SC's SECCG history?

Oh, no doubt, for the first time in decades the schedule is fairly balanced between the two. But you do not have a tougher schedule. We've been playing Arkansas, every year for the past 21 years, including their recent glory hayday years. We've played Auburn during all their best years for the past 21 years. Hell, we've even caught MSU during their best years.

Out of the past 21 years Georgia has actually played a tougher regular season schedule maybe five times max. Maybe five, probably more like four.

No hell, you make an excellent point and I'll personally be pulling for you like a banshee hooer - especially since we do not face you during the regular season. No doubt, Les has been recruiting well and next year's team may actually be better just by default, by losing the bad apples and the bad attitudes.

I'd really like to see your detailed analysis to back up this statement, but I'm pretty sure you just pulled that number out of your arse.

There's no way you are this fricking stupid. There is actually ONE explanation for how the schedules work, and since you don't know shite about SEC scheduling I'll tell you. You have 1 west permanent opponent, and the other 2 west opponents (before expansion) rotate every 5 years or so. So we played bama in 02/03, then again in 07/08. Etc. So are you really gonna get bent out of shape because we didnt' play certain teams that were good when they weren't on our schedule?

Last year you got LSU and Arkansas. 1 is good, 1 sucked. We got Ole Miss and AU, 1 was ok, one sucked.

This year, you get MSU and Arkanasa, 1 is ok and one sucks. We get LSU and Auburn, 1 is good and one sucks. So what the hell is your problem? It all evens out over time.

In 07 we had OkState and @bama on the schedule
In 08 we had @ASU, @LSU, bama
In 09 we had @OSU, LSU, @Ark
In 10 we had @CU, Ark

IDGAF if people think our schedules suck, after who we've been playing the past several years I don't even care.

You know what ... you nailed it.

If UGA would just have represented these past couple of gimme trips to Atlanta, then no one would have anything to say.

But they are frick-ups. So it's time to at least offer some semblance of a balanced schedule and then let the better team advance to Atlanta for a change and properly represent the East. South Carolina, Florida, whatever. The odds are too far in UGA's favor with the schedules they've been drawing. They are reminiscent of B1G teams, always being awarded something they don't really earn, then getting smashed in the post season.

What's up at LSU is a WHOLE BUNCH of talent.

Five of the ten will go in first two rounds.
If Faulk has good combine and workouts so will he. If not he'll probally go third round.

Wing will be the first specialist drafted.

One needs the money (kids-family)
Two RBs see the writing on the wall. With Hill establishing himself as the alpha back and last year's opening game starter returning from injury they knew their draft grade wouldn't improve. Plus they see how well it's going for Ridley in the NFL.

If it's so bad in BR do you think PP7 would let his little brother anywhere near LSU? Do you think Copeland would be RECRUITING his FRIEND and high school TEAMMATE Foster to LSU. Do you think LSU would have this awsome class chomping at the bit to be tigers? Recruits do talk to the players when they make visits.

Hard schedules, downward trend (BTW LSU was not very strong in 08 and 09).
