UGA beat them twice. It's not hard.

They got their in-state rival, border-state rival, Florida (who decided to stop playing football after Tebow), and Georgia.

Quit blaming the schedule because your team didn't beat them (twice)

They had the weakest regular schedule of every SEC team.

It's just a fact, no need to cry.

That’s false. Tenner, A&M and Ole Miss all had easier schedules

Not possible for one single team to have the weakest schedule, but carry on.

Must have been tough watching Texas in the SECCG. Don't lose to Vandy next time and you probably won't have to.

And you had Vanderbilt. What did you do with that?

Easily the best post I’ve seen all season on this subject.

I would add that it’s not our fault that Michigan went from national champs to chumps in a matter of 8 months either.

I'm guessing it was no where near as tough as watching Georgia get dickbutted by Alabama.

A&M is #16.

Regular season Texas had the weakest at 41, Tennessee was the 2nd weakest at 36 and Ole Miss was 3rd weakest at 34.

Texas did move up to #31 after the SECCG and passed them both, but that's not the regular season.

Right. I was thinking SEC schedule, but you're right. Y'all went up to Ann Arbor and beat Michigan in their house. And we beat Clemson early.

You make a good point. Plus they traveled to Michigan who was preseason Top 10.

So Oklahoma and Arkansas are the two border state rivals, you only referenced one ... both old SWC rivals. Oklahoma was preseason what ... 15th? They had Vandy, Mississippi State and Kentucky.

Meh ... their fans are too obnoxious to empathize with at this point. Difficult to accept them as having any positive attributes. Maybe one or two of them have been okay.

Alabama celebrated winning their Superbowl in September. Then went on to lose 3 of the next 6 games.
Meanwhile, Georgia went on to play in the SECCG and the CFP.
Have fun playing in a meaningless bowl game.

Nobody is blaming you for your schedule, it's just the reality.

It wasn't Alabama's fault when FSU started the season #3 and then lost their starting QB in the game and finished unranked. But you still don't get credit for it.

Next year who knows what kind of opponent FSU will provide. Good when scheduled, shite this year. Wisconsin was a ranked team when scheduled, not so great this year.

It's not in a vacuum. When you reward a team for a weak SoS(not talking Texas here really, just in general) you are punishing the teams that played the tougher games. It might not be their fault, but it's the reality.

Is it Oklahoma, Georgia and Florida's fault they played an extremely difficult schedule?

I'm pretty sure you got the superbowl part backwards. When people stop rushing the field after beating Alabama I'll reconsider that.

Alabama got 99 problems but Georgia ain't one. Kirby left before he could copy Saban on how to stop running QBs.

Do you mean like Ole Miss rushing the field after beating Georgia?
Or perhaps Alabama winning a meaningless regular season game in September then losing 3 of the next 6.
