We're so starved for information, there is absolutely nothing to report and this thread is at seven pages.

Like I said, and I know this is difficult to understand because LSU plays a harder schedule than UGA every year, but when two teams are playing identical top 5 teams and the remainder of their schedules are a wash, who dplays the more difficult schedule?: A) LSU play a harder schedule; B) UGA plays a harder schedule; or C) they have equally difficult schedules.


It would make LSU's schedule marginally tougher compared to Alabama's (since Bama is also playing UGA). It would make Georgia's schedule exponentially tougher than Florida's. Georgia would be playing the consensus top 4 teams in the West if they added LSU and A&M.

It was never a discussion of "does LSU have a tougher schedule than Georgia"

It was a discussion of whose schedule gets a lot harder based on the additional games.

Georgia already draws two of the top teams in the west this season on the regular schedule. Giving them the other two of the top 4 would warrant a bigger outrage than whatever it is LSU is going to do when the schedule is released

So basically UGA gets to experience what Auburn and LSU do every year.

When do Auburn and LSU play the top two teams from the east every year?

Other thing to note here, no games will be removed like the ACC did, only added.

Does this mean the in-conference schedules will remain the same, plus the two new games we'll know about soon?

You can really tell how scared UGA is of LSU from reading this thread. 7 pages of fear and counting.

Impartial schedule maker sounds like unbiased fact checker to me



Either way the REC is behind it

I think LSU ends up with these x-div games:

Florida
South Carolina
Georgia
Tennessee

And as much as fans would bitch, I think it would be awesome.

Y'all have got to be the most jilted fanbase in the country. It is remarkable

Kentucky should be better than USC this year though so you may want to change your prediction since you're going for the "they gonna frick LSU" prediction

Did you even read the rest of the post before you jumped to conclusions?

And doubled down with the edit?

I would love to see LSU play the entire top half of the SEC.

Yes, and like you I would welcome the addition of Florida to our schedule.

You're still predicting that the SEC gives you the top 4 from the east (likely top 3 and 5, again I think Kentucky will be better than SC)
