Advantage conference schedule

Mizzou still plays Ole MISS TBD
Alabama > Florida


After looking at the conference schedules it is obvious that both teams have faced similar completion. However in the games that A&M faced competition ranked higher they lost both games. Mizzou managed to beat Georgia when they were ranked 7th much higher than we were at the time. Florida, and South Carolina were also ranked when we faced them. The bottom of the barrel teams are pretty much the same. Add to the fact that A&M is not dominating their competition like Mizzou has managed to do winning games by much more than A&M has, and giving up less points in the process.

Until the game is played between A&M and Mizzou the conference advantage is either slightly to Mizzou or a draw
