Last year Auburn had the toughest by a pretty wide margin UGA and Bama are in JH so it is middle of the pack.
LOL. Arkansas was a consensus hardest schedule last year, perhaps you should take less of the drugs your players deal and partake of.

Bama has by far the toughest East schedule, but we don't play ourselves which hurts our overall SOS.

ahh did I strike a nerve...Im sorry, I guess I could have been a tab bit easier on your sandy vagina and simply corrected your stupidity on the subjects of schedules with a little less fervor.
and too correct your posting here...most national sports writers and pundits all considered the 2014 Razorbacks to have the hardest schedule in the nation so they mustve 'noticed'
no one can help it if you just dont pay attention.

Alabama always has an easy schedule because they are awesome, simply better than most teams, and can't play themselves. Auburn has a tough schedule because they suck and most people can beat them. Roll tide.

Alabama got picked as having the toughest schedule by Phil Steele.
According to preseason SI polls, Alabama plays:
#3 Auburn
#10 Ole Miss
#15 Georgia
#19 Wisconsin
#24 Texas A&M
Fox Sports:
#6 Auburn
#11 Ole Miss
#13 LSU
#15 Georgia
#21 Texas A&M
#23 Arkansas
#24 Tennessee
(Wisconsin and MSU make the "just missed" list)
Phil Steele's projected Top 25:
#9 Auburn
#10 Georgia
#12 Ole Miss
#14 LSU
#18 Wisconsin
#20 Arkansas
#21 MSU
#24 Tennessee
(Just missed - Texas A&M)
That's 9 of our opponents making at least one of those three preseason top 25 polls. I doubt that will hold true through the entire year, but right now that schedule looks brutal.
Edit: Steele has us with the second toughest, mostly because Alabama and Arkansas play the same number of ranked and bowl eligible teams, but the win discrepancy can be attributed to swapping Alabama and Arky as each other's foes.
Double edit: 10 of our foes (clearly I shouldn't post when tired). Pretty much every SEC team we play, plus Wisconsin, is somewhere on these preseason top 25 lists.

I agree that for once Bama has the toughest schedule in the conference.
At least you don't play UGA and Auburn both on the road back to back like we will you guys and UGA from here on out in even years.

I'd say Arkansas has the toughest schedule. While Texas Tech isn't as hard of an opponent, they're still a team to watch out for. And that game begins the difficult schedule for the Razorbacks. They play A&M, then make back-to-back road trips to Knoxville and Tuscaloosa. Tennessee will be much in improved this year led by Josh Dobbs and a talented receiver on the outside, North. Gameday could make an appearance here, but more than likely, I think it'll just be SEC Network. Then they host Auburn, take another back-to-back road trip to OM and LSU, two teams seeking revenge after being shut out by Arky last year. Then end the year with their newly forced rival Mizzou.
Biggest challenge for Bert is to keep the momentum going from last year, keep the same kind of chemistry, and to keep this team ready each and every week. What honestly may keep Arkansas out of winning the west will probably be fatigue. Idk much about Arkansas's depth, but my understanding, they're not as deep as say Alabama, Auburn, or LSU.

Well...they won 8 games last year, including a bowl game...and beat Indiana last year...which the SEC East champion couldn't do. So, you are right. It is a trade up.

I think Alabama may very well have the toughest schedule this year, not just the teams but where they play.
I do not think Wisconsin will be that much of a challenge, but they will be in the top 2-4 of the Big10 and probably ranked.
Playing Georgia, Auburn, and Miss State away will be rough, and I still think A&M is the snake in the grass for Alabama.
