While LSU travels to Texas, A&M goes to Clemson, Auburn travels to Oregon, and Georgia hosts Notre Dame, Alabama is playing the mighty Duke Blue Devils in Atlanta. Also includes Southern Miss, W. Carolina, and New Mexico St.

Yeah, maybe we can start preparing for Clemson this Spring instead of New Years Eve.

What part of this is so hard for you LSU fans to understand? These neutral-site games are by invitation. Alabama doesn't decide who they play in these games and neither does LSU.
Bama's strength of schedule is garbage is because schools like LSU don't even challenge them. LSU ought to be ashamed that, with so much talent every year, the Tigers usually can't score a point on Alabama. What is LSU's excuse?

Better than Miami in 2018.

It appears to me everyone else is doing home and home while Alabama is still doing neutral site games. It's not even that--play somebody with a pulse.

Why dont you cry about it some more?
You do realize that many power 5 teams do not want to schedule Bama, right? There is little benefit to playing us.

As much as I wish we did play in Eugene, the game is at JerryWorld

Our schedule gets better on 2020 I believe. But this year's is bad. But, we should go 12-0 again.

Doesn't matter. We will still be in the playoffs regardless. We just played the toughest SOS in the nation btw.

There are something like 8 neutral site games the first and second week of the season for 2019. It isn't just Bama you fricking retard.

A) They have Texas and Notre Dame home and homes already scheduled.
B) They are under contract for two more neutral-sites - one in 2020 against USC and one in 2021 against Miami. They aren't playing cupcakes.
I hope this is just a bad troll attempt.

Bama picks up USC trojans in 2020, Miami in 2021, and home and home with the Longhorns in 2022 and 2023.

I can understand your argument, but Alabama makes up for it at the end of the year. If this upsets certian fans, then don't brag about a tough schedule. Your team isn't forced to play anyone. I give LSU and other schools props for good match ups , but your school doesn't have to do this. SOS really doesn't matter IMO, if LSU ran the tables with any schedule, they would get in.

This is the SEC Rant where facts don't matter and no one looks anything up.

Damn. What does that say about Arkansas then?

Its a powder puff schedule but sometimes you just fall into those.
Arkansas had Michigan on the books for last year and this season but they walked at the last minute and left us holding the bag. Thank God they did. As horrible as last year was imagine how much worse it would have been with Michigan on the schedule.
Bama usually plays one good P5 opponent and then three Little Sisters of the Poor. Which is pretty well what everyone else in the SEC does except for folks with P5 rival that sometimes get two P5 OOC opponents a year.
LSU in 2011 probably had the best SOS of any team I've seen play for the national title and would have an argument for one of the best teams of all time but for that bad loss in the Natty against Bama.
