Seems like they did the best they could to give the power schools/expected contenders lesser opponents out of the gate, am I wrong? I mean it can't be a coincidence that every game outside of Tennessee/SC seems to favor one team with higher expectations this season.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out who the SEC wants to have a week 1 win.


Do Week 1 wins count more than Week 2 wins?

Auburn/Kentucky will be sneaky good too


Kentucky’s o-line vs Auburn’s d-line is going to be very interesting.

It's still better than the usual 3 good OOC games the first week and a bunch of cupcakes.

Our pass defense is sneaky good after having a bunch of young talent have to fill in all season for injuries and NFL defections. They won't have the numbers they did last season given they'll face some bigger passing offenses, but it'll be a good test to see exactly where they stand with Nix.

There better be at least some fans in the stands at Death Valley for the Pirate’s first game in the SEC.

It’s exactly what they did, which makes me think they aren’t even planning on making it to the end. This scheduling stuff would definitely become major drama come selection time.

Are they just trying to get in wins for Alabama, LSU, Georgia? That’s what it looks like.

Maybe they went with these games thinking some players might be missing due to early season Covid.

Hoping as the season goes on less players missing. Not saying I agree with this, just guessing the rational.

LSU likely wins, but will be cool to see the State air raid unleashed.

2 defensive HC’s, like this one too.

Kiffin at Ole Miss in Week 1... I’d be lying if I wasn’t a little nervous about that.

Weird shite tends to happen in UF games early in the season.


Yep it will be a blowout by Florida!

I have a feeling it will be. They should have a very good ground game and we are replacing a ton on the DL.

We need to kick off 9/5. Give a few weeks for a break if there is an outbreak.
