SEC should have taken us instead of Texas

We probably should have stayed. All of the SEC fans on here tell us nonstop about how easy it is. I believe we upgraded but they're trying like hell to convince me otherwise.

1) I love the SEC schedule, even though some teams aren't playing that good this year.

Oklahoma
Texas A&M
Arkansas
Georgia or Alabama
Florida or Auburn
Miss State or Ole Miss
Kentucky or S Carolina
Vanderbilt or Tennessee
LSU or Missouri - when 9th game is added

+

Michigan/Ohio State/Notre Dame

That schedule kicks arse. I don't think I could come up with much better if you let me pick anyone across the country.

2) You need thicker skin. We could play AP 1-12 each year, and if we won all the games, it would be because so and so was hurt.. or we got lucky with the start time.. or they got beat up the week before by a real team.. and if we lost 2-3 games.. we clearly suck.. We are currently on top of the league, so we are the target.

3) Our schedule turned out to be pretty easy this year.. but that's just the way the season went. 6 of the 12 opponents are in the Top 25 of all time college fb wins. 2 of the 12 opponents won the last 3 national championships. 2 other opponents won a combined 3 national championships since 2000. It is what it is..

4) We have some good wins, but no great wins. Vanderbilt, Arkansas, Florida, Michigan, Oklahoma are all good teams.. They have beaten Alabama, Tennessee, LSU, USC & Auburn this year. Kentucky is up next and they have beaten Ole Miss this year.

5) We need to win the A&M game to guarantee a playoff spot. I don't love the idea of playing Alabama in the SEC CG because there is a decent chance we will play them in the playoffs at some point.. but it would be pretty great to win in Atlanta in Year 1.

6) Just win. Everything else will take care of itself.
