I agree with this. But with the conference schedule the way it is and only getting to play the good SEC East teams once every nine years, the alumni should demand at least one good P5 OOC team each year so you can visit some classic and/or historic stadiums around the country. Without it, like you said, the AD has no incentive to schedule any tough OOC games.

I don't blame Tennessee
Their permanent West game is Bama and BYU is the perfect decent/well known but not too threatening opponent you want.
Auburn should start doing similar, TBH.

I hate to agree with a Bama fan, but this is true. No reason for a solid OOC team to get a beat down unless it's solely for the money. And good P5 teams don't need the money that bad.

UT has played tough OOC recently and may finally be less delusional
We start another home and home with Oklahoma next year so we’re still idiots

Just consider this year the deep breathe before the plunge. I don’t get people bashing these schedules honestly, just talking season.

Beat their arse. The only reason they are getting attention is because of the UGA game.
I'm a Positiger but cautiously optimistic after the Wisconsin opener a few years ago and then Miami last year. I'm hoping Texas is like the latter.
And UGA was deflated after finding a way to lose the SEC. LSU nation was cheering for yall.

Arkansas will sadly lose to at least 2 of those teams. Book it.

Calling it now, Arkansas goes 4-0 OOC, they just lost confidence last year with the CSU comeback loss.

That and the fact that we sucked. We upgraded at WR. Questions still linger at QB and OL. Defense can't be worse than last season, but that doesn't mean we'll be better. I have pretty low expectations for this upcoming season.

If you add UTk to their list, Bama plays five cushy games out of a dozen regular season games this coming season.
That's not a good look for Bama honestly.
Where is Bama's SOS right now. I know that A&M and SC are 1 & 2 in no particular order by every preseason metric. Where is Bama?

Don't worry, Vandy's B1G war path starts with Michigan then runs through Purdue in the fall.

Take a closer look at the column under Kentucky.
What's truly embarrassing is that the individual who prepared that graphic can't spell "Louisville".

And Vols probably lose at least two of those games!

Michigan cancelled our series with them. Pretty much everybody in the SEC knows this.

I don't think "Lousiville" will lose a single game in 2019.
Louisville on the other hand will not be as fortunate.

Selling tickets and driving interest in the program. Attendance is down across the country, and having four shitty OOC games is part of the reason. I know a lot of people who don't buy season tickets anymore because you have to buy all the games and half of them are cupcakes.
