Welcome to Alabama’s schedule for about 15 straight years.


In other words, Georgia is the new swinging dick of the SEC.

And… Bama has a bye before LSU and has had one for the last 15 years. Regardless of what you Bama fans like to think about LSU, Saban always wanted a bye prior to the LSU game.


I never said otherwise.

Bama and LSU both take byes before playing each other. It’s pretty reasonable given it’s in the back half of the season.

I forget which year it was but Bama played like 5 or 6 teams coming off bye one season. shite happens sometimes.

LSU has had a bye before Alabama as well. It works both ways.

No one should give Alabama trouble for the amount of games off before a big game.

Seeems like ever got a rest before playing them in the last few years.


Uga too though.

And LSU didn't also have byes at the same time that nullified any "advantage?"

Auburn wanted a bye after LSU in the mid 2000s. That game was gladiators fighting to their death.

In 2010 Alabama's last 6 SEC opponents all had byes the week before.

Because yall played that weak SEC East schedule since CUM retired. Meanwhile, everyone in the West ran a gauntlet week after week.

Why are they scared and why is the SEC trying to protect them?

In 2010, Bama played 6 SEC teams coming off a bye week. If you wanna be top dog in the SEC, better learn to live with that target on your back...

Why won't the DAWGS play in College Station? Are they scared? It's been 14 years now.
