NAAAaaaa , we play the exact same schedule crybabies, all the top 6 programs play a permanat program from the list of 6 , the bottom 6 play each other.
Tennessee beat Bama 7 in a row and we never byched.
Tennessee , IMO, in 5 years will be better than both Florida and LSU , I like their coach.
I never did hear Florida or UGA fans bych about Tennesse's easy schedule when they were kicking Bamas azz everyear.
ONLY WHEN LES THE MADHATTER STARTED BYCHING AND CRYING DID I HEAR LSU COMPLAIN.

I love how all the Alabama & Auburn fans say this is complete bullshite
Its because it is bullshite.
Living the Birmingham area and going to UAB I can tell you Mike Slive Doesn't Give a **** what the average janitor or smalltime staffer thinks.
The people in power positions are diverse, trust me on that.

Would it calm the bitching if LSU got to play Kentucky instead of Georgia?
Kentucky relies heavily on Ohio recruiting. How do we compensate them for not being allowed to host the defending national champions to help them recruit Ohio?

I agree.
Some went to Bama.
Others are just season-ticket holders.

Wow. Just wow.
The sec recruits office talent nationally, not locally.
If you really believe that Bama ticket holders staff that office you are on drugs.

No mention of JFF, so did not read
What does everyone think of the roommate switch scheme? Wouldn't this solve most of the bitching?

I'm sure by next week you'll be trying to convince us Womack will is an LSU alum.
Now that you mention it, I'm pretty sure he was in my pledge class at LSU.

all of the bitching from LSU fans during the past year is based solely upon the bridge schedule fricking up that rotation.
So.... that's this years bitch theme then.
2013 (so far): our schedule is too tough and is a conspiracy
2012: we should not have to play UF. If we did not play UF and the refs called a block in the back on Yeldon's run, we would be national champs (forget about Clemson)
2011: MULLIGAN. Bama cried their way into the game. Who cares who the #2 ranked BCS team is, we should get to pick who we play in the national title game and we want Okie St
2010: Auburn cheated, Fairley tPOS, Birmingham refs, etc....
2009: PP7 had an INT and block in the back on the Julio run. The Bammer refs stole the game from us. Illegitimate Bama title, no Colt McCoy.

Impressive distraction and strawman.
He is a Bama alum, sure. But you made the claim that the sec office is a bammer pit.
You should prove it or STFU.

The guys who talk about these scheduling conspiracies remind me of former rivals that were so self-centered and disinterested in the needs of their business partners that 4 programs left the conference. I'm not pointing fingers. I'm just making a point. Consider the conference needs as a whole.
Yea. Most aTm fans came into the SEC assuming Alabama was going to be the new Texas. But in reality I think aTm fans are starting to realize that the most whiny "we want it our way or no way" fans/administration is LSU.

In 2011...
The reward: National Championship
The task: Split two games against your toughest opponent
Who did it: Alabama and LSU
Who got the reward: Alabama
Why didn't the other get the reward: LSU was required to sweep two games, not split two games.
Both teams accomplished the same task, but LSU was held to a higher standard and had to do twice as much to get the reward.
Oh man. What a pathetic, defeated, and emotionally insecure fan base. Let's not blame our coach for being horribly unprepared and inflexible. Let's blame Alabama and the BCS system. Oh, but for 2003 national title purposes, we love the BCS. There is no split title with USC. The BCS is what we all agreed to and the pussy LA media needs to get over it.

2. The fact that LSU would have likely won 4 of the last 6 national titles if Saban had stayed at LSU instead of going to Alabama is grinding them so hard they have to come up with conspiracy theories to explain Alabama and Auburn's success and LSU's relative lack of success over the last 5 years.

Let me illustrate this to you in picture form since I doubt your reading skills are sufficient.

I though he went to Miami.
Close enough for the SIG though, no doubt.

FWIW here are teh rotating teams LSU played recently:
2005 - tenn, vandy (both had losing records)
2006 - tenn, kentucky (both had winning records)
2007 - kentucky, usc (ky was 8-5, usc was 6-6)
2008 - usc, uga (both had winning records)
2009 - uga, vandy (uga was 8-5, vandy was 2-10)
2010 - vandy, tenn (both had losing records)
2011 - ky, tenn (both had losing records)
2012 - usc (usc was 11-2)
And I know this whole conversation is a rabbit hole where the different fan bases don't talk nicely about scheduling but my only real problem with the bridge schedules is when they don't set up what should have been more premiere matchups between the two divisions.
This year the premiere teams from each division should have played each other - that means the following:
LSU vs Florida
Alabama vs UGA
A&M vs USC
Normally we're not in a bridge schedule situation where there's any sort of real opportunity to balance schedules but in 2012 and 2013 they had that opportunity and chose not to use it - and as a result we ended up with less equitable schedules and fewer premiere games to watch.

Here's the truth.
From 2005-2011, LSU has played a grand total of TWO teams with a winning conference record on their rotating schedule.
Wasn't going to post, but then I saw this stupid remark.
1)Conveniently left off 2012 vs. USCe. Interesting time span.....
2)Our "rotating" schedule will never have UF on it, so obviously it will be lower than other teams... In that time period UF had a winning conference record 6 times.
