Not upset at all and I fully understand the math of the schedule. My point is that y'all want tout these "all SEC schedule" and "no other team has ever won 11 SEC games" lines. That chance was afforded because of the circumstances of this year. No other SEC team has had the chance. But the minute someone points out how that "all SEC schedule" doesn't look as good as it normally may in a normal year, y'all want to jump to using the rules of other normal seasons and say "well if they had the 3 cupcake games the records wouldn't be so bad" while at the same time using your 11 win line. You want to use the rules for previous seasons to validate your opponents schedules, and use this year's rules for bama. You can't have it both ways.

People completely miss the point. This all SEC Schedule looked great on paper, but was so water down by Covid it wasn't close to a representation of SEC vs SEC Teams. It made each week a crap shoot for those teams who reported the positives and the contact tracing and gave those who did not have many a big competitive edge. If the SEC Office had any integrity they would publish a week by week report of how many each team reported. Who were starters, scholarship athletes or just walkons. We know that will never happen. Again, Exhibition Season.
