Yea sure they do this year. But your not going to be playing UGA every year. I don't get why all of the sudden this is a huge problem that needs to be fixed immediately to be "fair".
1 - because the MOST BLATANTLY BIASED bridge schedule for the last two years had nothing to do with "rotation"
2 - because under the current format, we'll see South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, etc. in Tiger Stadium about once every 10 years. Are we even in the same conference as those guys?

Doesn't every team have this? This isn't specific to LSU is it?
Besides y'all keep saying how only Inter-divisional should count so why does it even matter if you play UGA/UT/UF or any other east team more than once a decade

don't see that happening. I think either all conference games will count or only division games will count.
What is the argument for the rotating cross-divisional game counting for divisional titles?
I don't see any problem at all.

The argument is that only division games should count for determining division champions. For example, 2 years ago USCe beat every team in the East but wasn't East champ because they lost cross-division games.
The counter-argument is that it would take importance away from the cross-division games effectively making them OOC games

Only the unfair permanent cross-divisional cupcake games would lose their importance.
But there is the real reason why anybody would be against it.

A troll is someone who posts inflammatory, or off-topic messages with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.
Don't call me a troll when I am trying to have a real conversation.
However, your post is typical Bama style trolling at its finest.

No response! I didn't think so.

I agree with Less. The only way LSU has a real shot at winning a NC again is for the SEC to make yearly schedules trying to predict how good all 14 teams will be and then make a fair and balanced schedule
You beat the shite out of that straw man. Good for you. Maybe one day you'll learn some big boy argumentative rhetoric.

I love a gump criticizing anyone relative to any schedule.
I guess thats what happens when your use to playing a high school schedule for the most part and mulligans.

Maybe you don't understand the topic of this thread. Let me spell it out for you.
Permanent cross-divisional games that produce cupcake matchups are unfair to LSU
2011 Bama/Tenn 37-6, 2012 Bana/Tenn 44-13
Permanent cross-divisional games that produce matchups against perennial SEC powers
LSU vs Florida
Sorry, can someone help me with another permanent cross-divisional game that produces another top-10 matchup. No more? Who Knew?
This is Les Miles' point--pure and simple.

The fact that your are calling it a cupcake game is the troll part. Has nothing to do with the topic at hand.
I don't even know why I'm arguing with you. You may be the greatest troll on here. Congrats.

I think the problem is an ill-defined alternative. Rotate all inter-divisional games? That's never going to happen. Getting the necessary invite votes (for A&M and Missouri) was contingent on keeping UA/UT and AU/UGA. In other words, what specifically has Miles/Alleva suggested as an alternative scheduling format?

So, we are all agree!
Give everybody their permanent cross-divisional matchup; just don't count them for divisional titles.
Problem solved with all scheduling complaints.
