of course Saban has power. He is an iconic coach in the college football landscape.

I remember when he was at LSU he practically made LSU get rid of Texas Tech from the schedule bc "I'm not gonna lose a game to some gimmick offense".

and not too long ago he complained to his friends at the SEC office about so many ppl having byes before Bama and guess what.. a new rule was implemented.

If you think that the Florida game is the problem then I don't know what to tell you. But you're completely wrong.

quote:

Alashama plays 2 teams in all the projected preseason top 25 polls and rankings. 2 out of 12.

Two.

A&M and LSU.


LSU plays - FIVE.
TCU, Georgia, Florida, A&M, and Shama.


I am not singling anybody out here but:

1. LSU plays Florida every year. It's not Bama's fault that Tennessee has fallen to shite under Kiffy and Drooly. That problem will likely resolve, as Tenn. doesn't stay down long.

2. You got Georgia. Is it fair to make Missouri or Vandy or even Tenn play LSU AND Bama in one year? Would their bitching be any less credible? Why do you think they gave the tough schedule to LSU and not the struggling programs? LSU fans seem to think their schedule (and Bama's) is created in vacuum.

3. LSU has to play Bama and A&M. Bama gets to skip Bama. Sorry. That's how it works. A&M gets to skip A&M, and Ole Miss doesn't have to deal with that scrappy team from Oxford that will surely surprise people this year.

In, sum:

There are five great, untouchable, century-old rivalries that the SEC will preserve at all costs. You may not understand them if you are not a part of them, but the rivalries are real and the SEC will continue to preserve them regardless of what else changes. Those rivalries are:

1. Ole Miss - Miss State
2. Auburn - Georgia
3. Auburn - Alabama
4. Alabama - Tennessee
5. Florida - Georgia


End of discussion. If you don't get it, you don't get it. But those rivalries are not going away. Deal with it.

Someone should ask Cowherd how that Bama vs Notre Dame thing played-out when it mattered. The schedule they played getting there really didn't matter when all was said and done.

It's always about scheduling with these dick holes - especially Cowherd who makes his living trolling with bullshite. He's been well-known for it.

Please outline what it is exactly you are upset about and I will try to answer it in as complete a form as possible. Is it simply that Alabama has an easy schedule this year, or is it that you honestly believe a conspiracy to give Alabama an easy schedule?

Jesus Christ I know you're not this dumb. How many times does this have to be explained? The rotations were kept to a large degree and it was even said that they tried to stick to it as much as possible. With one glowing exception: LSU was to rotate on Kentucky and Bama was to rotate on Georgia. This was swapped at the last second.

Aren't you supposed to be bitching about Georgia getting to play shitty Auburn every year? I mean yall went undefeated in the east in 2011, but UGA's easier schedule somehow put them above you. Why aren't you crying about it.


Oh wait I forgot USCe fans aren't awful miserable whiny people.

How so? The guy was bitching the LSU had to play 5 tough games, one of them being Bama. bullshite. Bama has an easier schedule because they DON'T HAVE TO PLAY THE 2-time NC Champions!!! There's NOTHING we can do about that. No amount of scheduling will make that fair. If you can't see the problem, there is no hope to EVER stop the whining.

Do not see Vanderbilt vs Ole Miss on your list

I know it is not "visible" on the national level but it is known in the SEC.

So why are you bitching at Bama fans? Blame Mizzou and A+M.


Blame us that LSU didn't beat Bama? Why not, we get blamed for everything else.

I recall a lot of whining from a certain fan base regarding bye weeks...
