Under 10 for sure.


Georgia would absolutely be more than a 10-point favorite against LSU this season, even in Baton Rouge.

Georgia isn't in the west (the division won by a four loss team that lost in the championship game by 20).

Look in the mirror:

Florida is supposed to be a good team.

SEC West ranked teams in 2022:

5 - Alabama
16 - LSU
20 - MSU

In fairness, and I'm a Bama fan, Bama was not the 5th best team in the country. Bama would have lost big to Georgia for sure and probably South Carolina. Not positive Bama could have stopped Levis either.

You know that our OOC schedule outmeasures Florida this century.
And that is saying something because Florida does pony up multiple P5 opponents.

Every dawg fan can admit that the schedule sucks this year. But that is mostly Florida, Auburn, and Tennessee's fault.
That is what happens when 1 team wins king of the hill... every surrounding program enters their "down periods" (see UGA in the 90s with Florida and Tennessee going roughshod in the conference).

Tech, Auburn, and Tennessee are shells of their former selves the past 20 years against UGA.

One of the reason your schedule is consider difficult is you play us. One of the reasons ours isn’t considered difficult is we play you.


Not sure why this is hard to understand.

It’s the decline of UF, AU and GT that have hurt our schedule…not something we did. Three former national champion programs. UTK on the comeback.

Using win/loss method. Again, other teams get a bump that have an undefeated team from last year.

I think I liked OP's version better. I was looking forward to an easier schedule than most years but no you had to go and poo on that dream.

Easy wins:
Western Carolina
Kent State
FIU

Definite loss:
at Bama

Either way:
BYU
at LSU
Texas A&M (Arlington)
at Ole Miss
State
at Florida
Auburn
Mizzou


Your "either way" list is entirely way to long. Several of those are leaning or heavily leaning in the direction of the Arkansas opponent

I’m not ashamed of it, we’ve been on the other end of this list for a long time. But we’ve been subject to screw these up as well.

Maybe we won’t be as beat up come conference play.
