According to RealTimeRPI.com ( LINK), here are the SOS rankings heading into the season for the SEC teams:
1 Ole Miss
2 Auburn
3 Tennessee
5 LSU
8 Arkansas
9 Florida
17 Texas A&M
19 Alabama
21 Vanderbilt
22 Georgia
37 Missouri
38 Kentucky
41 South Carolina
52 Mississippi State
I am not sure why Mississippi State and Ole Miss vary that much with the SOS rankings considering both are in the SEC West and both play 3 cupcake OOC opponents. The SEC does look to cannibalize itself again this year.

We play the Alabama schools and Florida on the road in the SEC plus don't have our bye until week 10. Our toughest OOC is technically on the road for their calculations.

Plus you have to run into the Justin Fuente buzzsaw. You ain't livin' through that.

I actually mashed that link and perused that site with the rankings ... all I could do was lulz.
Would love to know what metrics they are using to derive those results.

Based purely on the opponents (not timing, byes, etc), I would say Bama has the toughest schedule in the SEC.

He makes Bucky look like an offensive genius. They only had 91 yards total against us.

I think Arky has the toughest schedule.

I think your mirror has the toughest schedule.

Once again Auburn gets a SOS bump because they play #3 Alabama while Bama plays #20 Auburn. Bama plays a higher ranked OOC team and a better East schedule than Auburn. I don't see how they can be 17 spots higher on SOS other than they play #3 and Bama can't play themselves.

We wont know the REAL answer to this debate until after the season concludes.

There is no human on this earth that can tell me OSU plays a harder schedule than Alabama in 2015. A computer can say it all it wants but let's be honest
OSU's hardest 5 games:
@VT
Home against MSU
Home against PSU
Home against Minn.
@ Michigan
Bama's
@UGA
LSU
@Auburn
Wisky (neutral)
@A&M
A # of others could be in there as well at the 4/5 slots

Does A&M play any games where they actually go to an opponent's home field?
