Schedule sets up well? Check (it's tough, but as far as how it's setup it's perfect).
How so?
Stolen from hogville:
quote:
Outside of the double SEC road trips and just the overall strength of course of the league...I really like our schedule, or at least how it sets up.
We play two very similar offenses to A&M in Toledo and TT the 2 weeks before we play them so game prep and pace of play on the field will have us prepared as we enter SEC play.
Tenn plays UF the week before us and plays UGA the week after us so we couldn't be in any better of a spot on their schedule.
Bama plays at UGA the week before us so that will be hard physical game for them
Then we get a bye week and get AU and then get UT martin and then OM. Which basically means we will have 2 weeks to prepare for AU and then two weeks to prepare for OM, who we play after UT Martin. On top of that we will be Ole Miss' TENTH CONSECUTIVE GAME as they don't go on a bye until the week after they play us and play A&M and AU the two weeks before us so our physical style of play will be a stark contrast to their two previous games as well as should wear on their tired bodies
We will then get both LSU and MSU the week AFTER they play bama. So after playing the physical game against bama they have no time to rest up before we pound on them again. They also both play OM the week after us which is both huge rivals for them as well.
then we come home for Mizzou...

That's actually a pretty reasonable wrap-up. You do know it means there are no excuses for y'all this year though, right?
