For a random, fun example, let’s compare the cases of LSU and Alabama, which as often as not seem to determine the SEC West winner.
LSU’s two opponents from the East this year will be Florida (home) and Georgia (away) — which last year combined for a 14-2 conference record.
Alabama’s two opponents from the East this year will be Kentucky and Tennessee — which last year combined for a 1-15 conference record (fortunately for the Vols, they did play each other).
Oh, so that’s how Nick Saban’s famed “process” works.
No, I’m willing to call it a coincidence.
But it also seems to be a trend.
Last year, LSU’s two East opponents, Florida and South Carolina, went 13-3. Alabama got Tennessee and Missouri, which went 3-13.
Last year doesn’t always predict for this year, admittedly, but it’s as good of a starting spot as any.
Florida and Georgia don’t appear to be backing up any, and it doesn’t look like Tennessee and Kentucky are ready to storm the gates anytime soon.

Alabama is not afraid to play strong up and coming teams like Kentucky and Tennessee. With new coaches, these are definitely two programs on the rise.

Lol LSU is so bad off they don't understand what a rotation is. 
I wonder how the unit circle lessons go around here.

FWIW, you just made yourself look foolish.
2012 and 2013 schedules were not part of a rotation. The bridge schedules were made from scratch.

this is better for more competent teams in the SEC (the ones that didnt lose their bowl games). it gives anticipation of two better teams playing in the championship

Sure, I'll take that. I'd rather them fix it permanently, but I'll take that in the interim.
