You're gonna average 58 ppg this year, while going unscored upon? Care to place a ban bet?

Our average score in all 15 games will be 54-3, which will just barely get us into the club.
Take that to the bank friends.

Would like to see a 10 year differential vs stuff that happened in the Stone Age

Why compare AU-UA schedules? What about AU vs LSU, or AU vs UGA, or AU vs FLA?
Because bama is the most relevant comparison as they historically play one of the weakest SEC schedules of anyone and AU easily plays a tougher schedule than any of those other mentioned, hence the largest variance in SOS among just about ANY SEC school is AU and Bama.

We're the Mecca of college football.

Surprised no Bama fan has posted that their schedule is weak because Bama does not have to play Bama.

More proof Auburn's time in the big 6 is fading.

You said the same thing about Florida in 2008, and about LSU in 2007

LBS. There are only 2 schools visible on that list to Auburn fans. And an excuse must be provided.

Second, even comparisons within the SEC against each other are pretty meaningless when you consider the wide historical variance in strength of schedule. Take AU vs Bama. AU has played the toughest SEC schedule of anyone and bama has played the weakest, over the past 23 years (since 1992 expansion). That holds up going way back as AU's yearly rivals before expansions were: Bama, blah, fricking blah, blah, blah...
Meh.

No.
Especially not with UGA above AU.
But look at UT and UF slumming way down there with State and Vandy...

Here, I will prove my point for all the insecure gumps that are rustled because daddy has bigger balls.
Number of times playing Big 6 (not counting playing each other):
AU: 300
Bama: 255
Number of times playing Vandy and Kentucky:
AU 71
Bama 121
Number of times playing Vandy, Kentucky, MSU, Ole Miss:
AU 194
Bama 275
These add up to a metric frickton if difference over time. Especially when you combine playing the best teams in the SEC and playing the worst, both of which massively tilt toward AU in SOS.
Again, Bama has played a weak SEC schedule historically, one of the easiest in the conference and AU has played one of if not the toughest.
I mean a schedule comparison between AU and bama is a joke. Its laughable. AU has giant brass balls and has always wanted to play the best. Bama has always had little bebie balls and done everything possible to avoid doing so.

Realistically, the Bama grads/fans in the SEC office have just been trying to make life miserable for Auburn fans for the entirety of their existence. It's one big damn conspiracy.
It must suck being little bro.
