The toughest and easiest schedule in the SEC in 2022

THE SEC
Toughest: AUBURN (No. 1 nationally)
Easiest: GEORGIA (No. 58 nationally)
Auburn’s big test in non-league play is Penn State, which it gets at home in Week 3. What makes the Tigers’ schedule the toughest in the entire nation is that it gets both Alabama and Georgia (No. 1 and No. 3 respectively in Steele’s preseason Top 40) on the road. They haven’t won in Tuscaloosa since 2010 and Athens since 2005. Add in a home date with Texas A&M (No. 9) and it’s three Top Ten opponents in eight weeks.
Defending national champion Georgia does open the season vs. Oregon in Atlanta but draws Mississippi State as its rotating opponent from the wild SEC West, thereby avoiding Alabama, Texas A&M, Ole Miss, and LSU all together. The Bulldogs also get the benefit of drawing Tennessee, which may finally be positioned to vie for an East division crown, at home.

Georgia is in a weak division. I already knew the weakest before clicking.
I was gonna guess Arkansas as the toughest.

Steel has Mississippi State #2, GT #3, and Arkansas #4 in his national rankings.
