The conference is using a 10-year success metric to strike the fairest blend of permanent opponents for each team, Saban says.

“They said they did a 10-year whatever,” the coach says.

Who knows what that "10-year success metric" entails but:

4 Kentucky - 0.639
5 Alabama - 0.622
6 Texas - 0.617
7 Texas A&M - 0.614

11 Ole Miss - 0.573
12 Vanderbilt - 0.573
13 Oklahoma - 0.568
14 Arkansas - 0.559
15 South Carolina - 0.557

How solid are those predictions?

I thought for sure OU would get Texas, Pig, and Misery. But Florida?

This doesn't disprove Saban. Let's see them uncombined. What are the top 3 teams from the East and West in a 25 year period

Seems like Brian Kelly should be the one complaining.

In the last 15 years, BAMA has slashed and burned down the SEC, at a historic rate. That metric seems irrelevant for BAMA.

I would think Arky would be one of LSU's permanent ones to bring back the old Boot "rivalry".

That would give the SEC:

UTx vs AM on Thanksgiving
LSU vs Arky on Friday after Thanksgiving
Iron Bowl on Saturday.

That's a pretty good lineup.

Maybe you should dry Saban's tears and tell him that.

Maybe Saban was complaining that LSU’s schedule was too hard…..or something like that

Why should I? The SEC is being arbitrary if they pick LSU. We've treated them like stepchildren. The barn and the vols are historically related.

Our defense did that. And I remember the aggies took care of you in fine fashion. The SEC gets long-term balance, and when the dust settles, that is what I think everyone will see.

The only team on LSU's list who's worth a shite is Alabama.
