UT's schedule is harder? Nah. They got to play the bottom 4 more than Ala did. The bottom 4 are bad. Ala's 4-0 against the teams Tenn lost to.

Their collapse was far more predictable than A&M’s. Ole Miss finally hit the meat of their schedule and couldn’t really survive it.

Sorry, but no. Playing the top teams more > playing the bottom teams less.

No shite. But we would all know the real champion if they are 0-2 head to head and an easier schedule. These unequal schedules make co-champions laughable.

We don’t have an easier schedule, and we’ll be the real champion, just like Tennesseee.

Hope this clears it up for you.

Sure, but you do. It’s not the easiest of the 4 at the top, that belongs to Auburn. But it’s easier than Tennessee’s.

FFS cry some more, Keller. When y’all were co-champs in 2018 you lost to Auburn the one time you played in the regular season (who you shared the title with). You not claiming that one with that same energy?

Why would I care about OOC schedule for a conference award?

If you have the same record you are co-champs. Sorry if you don’t like it.

Also, UT and Bama’s SEC schedules are comparable.

Bama played UT (t-1), Auburn (t-4) Florida (t-4), MSU (7th) and LSU (8) twice. And only got UK at Rupp.

UT played Bama (t-1), SC (3), UK (t-4), A&M (t-9), and Vandy (13) twice.

If anything Alabama’s SEC schedule was harder. Don’t let your Alabama hate make you look foolish.

You know you’re reaching when you bring up playing LSU twice.

Yeah, the coffee kicked in and I came out firing like a smartass. Upon reflection, I decided to take it easy.

Florida is on a nice run but the best teams are UT/Bama/UK/Auburn/Uscjr when it comes down to it.

TAMU > LSU despite any current records.

Who said anything about OOC? Are you saying UT has had a tougher SEC schedule for the full season, or are you talking about the last stretch of games coming up?

If you’re talking about the full SEC season, Alabama will have played Auburn, Florida, and Tennessee twice each, plus UK at Rupp. UT only played Auburn and Florida once each and got the worst team in the conference twice.

Just educating you on the schedules with actual facts since you seem confused. You can learn something or continue to look like an uninformed idiot. Your choice.
