We all KNOW its not random

Anybody else see a pattern?

Yes, yes we do

And you seem to have a guilty conscience. We don't care, to be the best you have to beat the best... (well, unless they get a mulligan)

'm sure they factored in every good player's senior year into preparing the schedule a year and a half in advance. I mean, it's not like players go pro early or get injured.

Especially before marshall and gurleys breakout it looked like next year as opposed to this year would be a rebuilding year for UGA.

My conscience is actually clearer now that I see the pattern they have going on. It was never guilty though, I knew they had a plan.

You say there is a plan but there are obvious holes in the plan. Holes that have a distinct advantage for Bama in particular.

Listen. Teams are cyclical. Everyone knows that. With a true rotation it would just be bad luck for us to get USC and UGA back to back years with them being up+UF being up. How it is though is that the sec scheduling office for once in its existence had two back to back years to do whatever it wanted and to make sure schedules were somewhat equitable. Yet they are everything but. And still they cant even get a rotation. 3 years of bridge schedules.

I mean, let's think about it, you guys get Georgia with your own senior QB this year. We probably get them with our own freshman/sophomore first year QB next year. While y'all will probably get Mizzou or Kentucky with your young first year starting QB next year...

I guess the SEC office planned that to y'all's advantage next year.

I see a pattern, why the frick are they still bridging the schedule?

We get 4 top ten teams from the east in 2 years. Yalls four teams combined for three wins last year. All vs each other.

Exactly.
In the two years of the bridge schedule Bama will have played ZERO GAMES against the East's top 3 teams. All while LSU will have played 4 games ,in the two years , against the East's top 3 teams.

Do you want to see something hysterical, yet monumenetally shameful and embarrassing ???????:

Alabama's 2013 SEC East opponents' SEC records in 2011 and 2012.........4-27
LSU's 2013 SEC East opponents' SEC records in 2011 and 2012.........29-4

Thanks good 'ol Alabammy Bumminhayum podnuhs...


Geeeeeeeeee, I wonder how the MulliGumpNecks would feel if:
*The SEC Office was on Poydras Street across from the Superdome in downtown N.O.
*The Head of SEC Scheduling was an LSU alumnus.
*The Head of SEC Officiating was an LSU alumnus.
*The Replay Official in the pressbox at the SECCG every year was an LSU alumnus.
*The SEC Office employee license plates said "Geaux Tigers."

LSU fans like you are basing too much off current events, rankings, players,

Oh really? I thought these were the types of things that had a pretty large determining factor in how my team would perform this season?

and not enough off the big picture.

Exactly what does the big picture have to do with any 1 specific season?

Exactly, you are trying to act like the current setting should be the basis for making a schedule that will be used for possibly the next 30 years. They are obviously trying to merge from the old schedule to the new one smoothly, not make everything fair and equal (which it will never be for everyone) based on current situations that can change as soon as one QB breaks his leg, or one coach fricks an assistant, one running back gets arrested, or one school goes on probation, or one linebacker leaves early for the NFL.

You can say the same teams are always good, but two seasons ago arky was good, A&M sucked, and Auburn won a national championship.
