Auburn gets screwed by having to play the most BIG6 teams often.


Yep.

Auburn is the only team that has all of the remaining non-AU Big 6 opponents in their Top 6 most frequent opponents.

Anybody still want to argue that Auburn hasn’t had the most difficult SEC schedule historically? Chime in now and show your work.

But, what are you basing your #'s off of? The Big 6 didn't exist until 1992.

Mississippi State's is more difficult by far.


Auburn
Missouri -- 3
Texas A&M -- 10
South Carolina -- 12
Arkansas -- 29
Kentucky -- 33
Vanderbilt -- 43
Mississippi -- 44
Tennessee -- 53
LSU -- 54
Alabama -- 84
Florida -- 84
Mississippi State -- 93
Georgia -- 124

399 games vs Big 6

Mississippi State
Missouri -- 3
Texas A&M -- 13
South Carolina -- 16
Vanderbilt -- 22
Georgia -- 24
Arkansas -- 30
Tennessee -- 46
Kentucky -- 47
Florida -- 55
Auburn -- 93
Alabama -- 103
LSU -- 113
Mississippi -- 116

550 games vs Big 6, and a HUGE majority of them were away games.

From 1932 to 1957, State played Bama 2 times in Mississippi and 20 times in Alabama.
From 1905 to 1962, State played Auburn 3 times in Mississippi and 33 times in Alabama.
From 1931 to 1970, State played LSU 3 times in Mississippi and 36 times in Louisiana, including 26 in a row.

Despite the rivalries, State has played Bama more than Auburn has played Bama, and State has played LSU more than OM has played LSU.

Ole Miss was more successful in football than Florida until the 90s. Hell, Ole Miss was "Big 3" until 1977.
