I’ve been around a while a long while. Considering the new staff, talent level, and teams. This first 3 games of the conference slate seems to be the most difficult in my lifetime. We were always back end heavy for years.

Florida
UGA
Cupcake
Bama

This year aTm, UGA, LSU is the most front loaded I can remember.

And yes I’m aware there is a ban bet going on and there are plenty of threads. Football season still continues

Could Jang and Chex weigh in since we won't be able to see them argue again without the inevitable alters?

I’d rather play aTm and thUGA early while they’re still trying to figure things out, even though we’re still trying to figure things out.

Last season was the exact same first five except for starting off at Missouri. And that was directly after Penn St with no bye after Georgia.

Last year was the beginning of an era that even the A&M and Missouri mergers didn't completely mess up. With Oklahoma and Texas soon joining our league our schedules will once again feel out of character. Hopefully it changes for the better. Will it? 50/50

I'm still mad we lost LSU during the regular season starting next year.

Back in the day, we often played Tennessee in September. It was a gauge of what our team might be or how much we might need to improve.

The gauntlet of Florida, Georgia, Alabama was always tough.

I miss the 10 team SEC and our annual game with GT.

I am sure all know where he went to college. I am positive that has no influence on his scheduling regarding football.

This one hurts. Auburn vs LSU is an epic non rivalry game where both teams respect the hell outta each other and just play good hard nosed football. To hell with whoever put together our schedule

Interesting, Chex said all of them would rush the passer.
Weigman can pass for 300 yards per game if he has no pressure...What is our gameplan. Blitz Asante all game?

SEC football has always been about more than wins and losses.
