Easy enough to figure out who is who, but trying to take any school bias out of it. From easiest to hardest:

Team A - MSU, @Arky
Team B - A&M, @OM
Team C - Aub, @MSU
Team D - OM, @LSU
Team E - Arky, @Bama
Team F - LSU, @A&M
Team G - Bama, @Aub

Some are pretty interchangeable but it seems Team A has a pretty distinct advantage and Team G has a distinct disadvantage.

Reverse his list to meet OP's guidelines and I agree.

eta: Going purely on the Bama effect. I'm so fricking sick of Little Nicky.

I think team A is going to have a much harder time with the opponents they play than the OP and subsequent fan base think.

Hardest to easiest

Georgia - Team G - Bama, @Aub
Tennessee -Team E - Arky, @Bama
Florida - Team D - OM, @LSU
Kentucky - Team C - Aub, @MSU
South Carolina - Team F - LSU, @A&M
Missouri - Team A - MSU, @Arky
Vanderbilt - Team B - A&M, @OM

I guess it kind of depends on how you good/bad you think certain West teams will be.

Team A could very well lose both those games. Not questioning that. But looking at the draws before the season starts, I don't know if there is more than 1 or 2 draws I could make an argument for as being better.

Team B - A&M, @OM
Team D - OM, @LSU
Team C - Aub, @MSU
Team E - Arky, @Bama
Team G - Bama, @Aub
Hardest

G is far and away the hardest.

It does get pretty tough after that, but Team E has the next hardest road game in the West by far and a pretty tough home matchup so they are a clear #2.

Then I have C because they have the best team in the West IMO at home and one of the easier teams on the road so both are tough.

Team D has two pretty loseable games but neither are as tough as it gets so they are in the middle.

B and F are very similar and each have a somewhat winaable home game but I think @Ole Miss is tougher than @A&M.

THen A has the easiest game against the west poss;ible and a middle of the road team on the road.

By far the easiest.

Just a guess but if Auburn has the best shot to win the SEC then team C is probably screwed which means they are probably UK. Cats always wind up with a Top 10 - Top 20 SoS and the "luck" into the west team that gets hot that year.

Nice break down. I probably had Team F's draw rated more difficult than it is but I don't know if I could go so far as to say it's the 2nd easiest.

The hardest
Team G - Bama, @Aub

All about the same at this point until we know more
Team B - A&M, @OM
Team C - Aub, @MSU
Team E - Arky, @Bama
Team F - LSU, @A&M

The easiest
Team D - OM, @LSU
Team A - MSU, @Arky

Edit: After looking at who is who, UGA is fricked, Miz catches another big break.

the FACT is that all of the East facing brutal West teams because all of the teams in the West can beat any team in the East. there are no patsies in the West.
