Alashama plays 2 teams in all the projected preseason top 25 polls and rankings. 2 out of 12.

Two.

A&M and LSU.


LSU plays - FIVE.
TCU, Georgia, Florida, A&M, and Shama.

HOW DARE THEY? Bama is guilty of not scheduling THEMSELVES. They get the EASY SEC schedule, conveniently skipping over Bama every year, while the rest of the SEC West is stuck playing Bama.


IT'S NOT FAIR!!! Bama should be scheduled to play BAMA every year like the rest of us!!!!

Tough break. However, if LSU loses a game, their schedule strength may end up benefiting them while Alabama's may hurt them in the end.

Problem is them pumping certain schools over others. I put Michigan, Southern Cal, and Texas in this group. Over the past year I think the B12 is getting more media love than they deserve and do not think TCU will be a Top 25 team much more now they are in the B12.

Nobody will doubt the SEC teams in your list but putting TCU in there is just padding. The issue is Georgia and Florida as extra burden to LSU which has some merit but is the SEC east better right now or just basking in the burning embers of the dumpster fires at Auburn and Arkansas? If the Vols did not have their own dumpster fire would LSU complain about the Gators if the Bama vs Vols was more like the rival games of old?

Things are cyclical but over time the better teams always rise to the top more often.
