SEC office will release it on their way out of the door for the weekend to avoid the shite storm for a couple of days.

Right, but we already play Auburn, Alabama, and A&M, and the memo sent out last week was they were going to try to balance SOS with the added games. Giving LSU Georgia on top of already playing Florida and the aforementioned teams wouldn't be doing that. They can't give us UGA and Florida because we already have one of those on the schedule.

LSU would have the most difficult schedule in the SEC if UGA is added to their schedule unless Florida is added to Auburn's.

Billboards were put up around the city because of a targeting call. I guess I can't say that I blame them when phone numbers and email addresses are out there in the open for every slapdick from Houma to access

I don't think Bama fans are going to be irate about our schedule regardless of the additional opponents. I don't know a single bama fan that believes Florida can even stay with us for a half.

you don't seem to undersatnd that you getting vandy and us getting aTm is shittier for us than you? Look at the schedules this way:

uga/lsu play each other.
bama = both play
AU = both play
UF = both play
ATM = both play

so who's teh next toughest opponent?

For us it'd be Tennessee, making us play all the rest of the big 6. For LSU it'd be...MSU? Ole miss?

I mean I think they can but I also don't care who we play. This whole season is gonna be a shite show so who cares either way.

I am definitely excited for the melts, though.

because it's not. If LSU gets UGA, they would play Alabama, Auburn, A&M, Florida, and UGA. UGA would not have a harder slate than that. Period.

And yet saban was likely crying about the schedule and getting it changed to his liking.

This is going to be a mess and completely unbalanced.

of course they wouldn't, bama is head and shoulders above anyoen else that would be added to your scheudle that isn't already on it. But I can certainly see some bama fans complaining if yall got UF and someone while LSU got 2 cupcakes. Half the teams are going to compalin no matter waht, that's a fact. And on the topic of balance wiht bama alreayd having UGA and UT I agree they SHOULD get 1 mid-size team and one shite team. That would be fair. Jsut like it'd be fair for UGA to get 2 crap teams with us already having bama/AU. For some reason though, primarily because mcgarity is a buffoon and we always get shite on with scheduling, I have a bad feeling about this.

I agree with you but comparing Tennessee to OM and State isn’t the best argument

What are you guys talking about? Florida could absolutely stay with us for a half (or even the whole game!).

Why are we talking about Florida like they are Vanderbilt?
