You know I’m not going to do that

Just got out.

I am offering to do another 30-45 minutes of research and lay it out for you and you aren't willing to look at what I found for 5 minutes (or less)?

quote:

And scheduling of games often happens 5/10 years prior to a game, so the record at the time of the game is irrelevant to the toughness of the schedule. Do you get docked for scheduling OSU now if when you eventually play them they go 4-8? To many other factors and too many cancellations and switches to come up with a determinative answer so we can keep arguing or we can move on to the weekend. All I know is that in 15 years these are our true road games and I’d put it up against anyone.
Then why are you and Smokeyone going around saying we schedule weak OOC road games?

quote:

@Pitt (home and home) (@Pitt this upcoming season)
@OU (home and home)
@Oregon (home and home)
@UCLA
@Cal (home and home)



And yet you didn't bother (before saying we don't schedule tough OOC road games) to see that we have home and home series scheduled with:


Ohio State
Oklahoma
FSU
UCLA
Louisville
Texas (Was scheduled before merger)
NC State
This while continuing to play GT every year. No, they are not a tough game right now, but they will return to respectability soon enough. Well, maybe.


quote:

(the NC state game you referenced was a neutral site)
You talking about for y'all or us? Because we go to NC State in 2034.

FBS Schedules
I typically don't have a problem with you ro what you post. And I suspect you got caught up in Smokeyones mess before realizing it. An LSU fan took a swipe at us then dropped out of the thread. Smokeyone didn't check what the LSU fans said and started to troll, then Georgia fans took offense and then took shots at Tennessee.

Tennessee wasn't even in the conversation before a Tennessee fan decided to start some trouble.

No, our game. I think You referenced one of our NC state games as a road game but it wasn’t. It was in the Georgia dome and a guy fell off the balcony and died.

Those games I listed are not scheduled games (outside of the Pitt game next year), they are games that we have played in the last 15 years. I generally wouldn’t include future games in this because of how volatile they are, but I’m pretty sure we’re gonna go to pitt this fall

Ouch! And gotcha.

Again, gotcha.

Just keep in mind it wasn't Georgia fans criticizing Tennessee for their scheduling until y'all jumped in on this. I couldn't care less who y'all schedule. Why UT fans seem to care so much....I have no idea.

Exactly.
And we still have the same number of ooc p5 away games.

Tech has a bcs bowl win in the past 15 seasons (big 6 new years day bowl win if you need the current lingo). How many sec teams can say that? Tennessee?

One of the dawgs posted that no one could match UGA’s OOC scheduling over the past 15 years and if you read my posts in this thread they are all responding with that contention in mind. It is arguable that UT’s OOC schedule over the past 15 years, is equal to or slightly better than UGAs. It is arguable, hence the arguments. There were a lot of distractions along the way but that’s what I have been focusing on.

I can argue that the sky is green but that doesn't mean it is a viable argument.

We played 3 teams that ended the season ranked. One at #8. One at #11 and one at #13. Which three of your opponents finished the season ranked and where were they ranked?

You can argue all you want to, but it doesn't mean it is a reasonable, winnable argument.

Here is what you posted:

@Pitt (home and home)
@OU (home and home)
@Oregon (home and home)
@UCLA
@Cal (home and home)
A slew of neutral site games as well


Neutral sites don't count. Which three finished ranked? Because we had three that finished ranked and one was in top 10 and the other two were top 15. Oregon has a shot. Other than that?
Looks like Pitt finished #13. And that's all I see.

The poster I responded to initially included OOC Neutral site games in his claim

Y’all schedule Clemson and Tech and “neutral site” Atlanta games. My point was that those are essentially home games, and that in 40 years y’all have been on a plane to play a true road games a whole 4 times. You want to be a national power with regional only games.

Hey that could work. I mean we have Oregon for one this coming season. Still not sure UT will end up as well.

You responded to Porter Osborne, and he was responding to the LSU troll. Then Smokeyone got involved. I mean, it's not our fault the LSU troll and Smokeyone saw the stupidity of the premise and bailed out and you feel compelled to defend.

And the parameters haven't changed at all. Here is the post you responded to:
We’ve played at Clemson, ND, Colorado, and Arizona State plus we play at GT every other year who until they fired Johnson was a good program. Not to mention we play plenty of tough neutral site games. I don’t think most teams, if any, in the SEC can match our OOC schedule the last 15 years.

OOC road games and 15 years are all the parameters I laid out for you. How has that changed?

If you want we can start counting our neutral site games. And Porter said "I don’t think most teams, if any, in the SEC can match our OOC schedule the last 15 years." THAT'S the phrase that got you all riled up?

Show me how he was wrong.

So do you consider games against Vanderbilt home games? Don't be obtuse. Never mind. I forgot who I was talking to. Troll Daddy.

We play Oregon first game this year...and we just won the National Championship. That makes us a national power.

In your mind these are regional games?

Ohio State
Oklahoma
FSU
UCLA
Louisville
Texas (Was scheduled before merger)

Tennessee fans are insane. Verifiable by this thread.

ETA
Oh, and in the last 15 we can also count:
Boise State (They finished #8 in the country that year)
Oklahoma State
Colorado
Arizona State

Are those regional? How big is our region?
