We paid arky to sand bag both these games and get alabama teams over confident

Auburn did as well. SEC hates LSU.

I've noticed how you really overuse boldface and italics in all of your posts. It's as though you've just discovered the feature and you want to show it off.

You're losing whatever drama or point your trying to make by over doing so much. You should probably stop for a while.

The same reason we end the season with two byes before the SEC championship

Alabama doesn't get a "bye week", they get a "buy week". That's when all the football players go on a shopping spree with the boosters.

It's completely coincidental.

They need time to recover from their hallowed rivalry game with Sewanee last week. Because hey, Sewanee was once really, really good.

Not really, under a normal 12 game schedule, with 1 bye week, most teams set their bye after 6, 7 or 8 games. Alabama has decided that setting it up before LSU, which is always their 9th game (as the case for LSU) rather than Arkansas or Tennessee, (TSIO) even though that is one of their historic rivals like Auburn. So my guess is it is both somewhat a normal part of the schedule and somewhat strategic, the proportion you have to get from rational Bama fans here, there are some like Viceman who always posts relative no troll stuff.

Now, if TENN got back to their 1990's and early 2000 level, maybe they put the bye back before TENN rather than LSU.

Because Bama is boss. There is no Big 6. They just say that to make y’all feel better. It’s a Big 1. Y’all are all little bros. The best part is that y’all can’t do anything about it aside from the occasional billboard

Don’t just roll over Arkansas. Y’all can do this. I believe

Bama has such a long SEC win streak that the rest of the country considers you all as Bye Weeks until the playoffs.
