I don't disagree but c'mon you have to admit. Your schedule is extremely favorable...

the west was really good in the 2010s, t
Peak SEC West was 2013-2014 with Dak Prescott, Johnny Manziel, good Gus, Reverend Hugh and LSU before Les Miles started crashing out.
Unfortunately, many fans of SEC West schools were still pumping their chests and acting like it was still 2013 and 2014 many years after 2013 and 2014 were over.

They missed the old SEC East days and begged really, really hard to relive those days?

You are so right. How we all forget the dominant teams from the east from 2014 until it ended.
You had UGA and...well....shite

I will give you that in 2024, but not last year...

The schedule keeps getting better and better too. Last weekend we learned that Oklahoma has a high school offensive line and Arkansas is nice enough to let you know what kind of play they are running.
Georgia leaves the state 3 times in the regular season. Including the SECCG and playoffs, Georgia could play 11 games this season within an 80 mile radius of the practice facility.
Four, right?
@Arkansas; @Alabama; @Ole Miss; @ South Carolina

Well, for starters, their permanent opponents are Florida, Auburn, and South Carolina. It's not their fault their biggest rivals aren't great right now. And they got South Carolina because South Carolina doesn't really have any historic rivals in the SEC. They do play At Alabama and at Ole Miss and have a game against Oklahoma, who was supposed to be good.

I hear you. We had some injuries last year too but still should have beaten OM.
Posted on 9/14/26 at 11:07 am to Violent Hip Swivel
Yea, those were fun times. I still feel LSU got incredibly shafted by playing in Saban's shadow for that period of time. We just couldnt beat him, which prevented us from winning the division, which kept us out of conf champ game, and cast us into the outback bowl every year. IMO, Les would've won 2-3 more championships if Saban stayed in the NFL.

It definitely is this year…which is nice for a change.
The new reality is that in the SEC there isn’t a reason to schedule big OOC games when you have to play a 9 game SEC schedule, hopefully the SECCG and then hopefully playoff games.
We’re reaching a point where it is becoming more likely that 2 teams could end up playing each other 3 times. Which is bullshite IMO.

No disrespect to the Bulldogs because I have great respect for their program but how were they able to avoid playing the top teams in the league this year. They don’t play anyone but Alabama, No LSU, Texas, Tennessee, or A&M. Their non conference is also a joke.
Are you under the impression that Georgia's average schedule under this current rotation will be any easier than Alabama's? If so, you're incorrect. The answer to your question is obvious. If UGA has a tougher schedule one year (or two), it will be easier the next year.
There is one valid part of your question. Why is Georgia playing Alabama instead of LSU or Texas A&M? That may turn out to make Georgia's 2026 schedule easier than it should've been.

To be fair, when the schedule came out Lane Kiffin was still the coach at Ole Miss, so that was still supposed to be a respectable game. It won't be anymore, but that's not UGA's fault.
Lmao, Pete is 1-0 against Kirby. I expect UGA to win, but saying it won’t be a respectable game is wild

I wouldn’t write off Oklahoma yet. Auburn and Florida could both potentially be tough games too. Yes UGA’s schedule is probably on the easier side of an SEC schedule this season, but it’s still an SEC schedule.

Your OOC is a joke though
The Louisville series we had this year and next year was cancelled when the SEC decided on 9 conference games.

Georgia's not gonna schedule 11 P4 games very often. That would be dumb. So until we wise up and cancel the GT series, GT will be our only OOC P4 game most years.

Isn’t the correct forum answer:
“Because we run this conference!”?
Remember, a few years ago we had road games at Texas and Bama. It evens out sometimes.
