First thing Aubie needs to get rid of their yearly cupcakes

2nd thing simply schedule the Teams, for example, in a recent Season UNC and Wake scheduled each other as a non-Conference Game, they are in different Divisions of the ACC and instead of looking for cupcakes, they simply treated each other as an OoC P5 Game

So if Aubie wanted to get that old schedule back they could, but my guess is that the current HC likes what cupcake city does for his W-L record and ultimately his bank account , and he's not the only HC that schedules like this

Yeah in the past 25 years of not playing them annually anymore y'all have caught up. I know math like that is a hard concept for you.


And there's a big difference in that nobody actually cares about Mississippi State or playing y'all

Auburn has also played Clemson and Florida State a lot. Auburn played Florida State about every year in the 1980s.

Dominating Mississippi State for 100 years =/= history

Auburn had the worst draw for having to play the big6.

All by plan too.

It would be nice if power 5 programs all went to 8 conference games so they could all play 2 big time Power 5 games out of conference.

What would really be different. You’d lose 3 out of 4 to UGA and Bama. UF would probably win 2 to 3 out of 4. Auburn would still consistently be the 3-4 loss team as now. Is that a subtle get LSU off the schedule to have a rebuilding UT and an awful GT in their place?

Think about it, the MORE you REDUCE the # of teams, the MORE you INCREASE the # of conferences.

Auburn played 55 straight road games against Georgia Tech. That's crazy. They were in the same conference too. Auburn tried to get them to play at our stadium and SEC was like, nope. People forget that Ga Tech was Auburn's biggest rival back in the day. It was a mean, nasty rivalry too.

Why wouldn’t the SEC let Auburn play GT in Jordan Hare. Why 55 straight road games? Crazy

Georgia Tech hadn't won a national championship since 1952, and Florida had never even won an SEC championship. So let's not pretend that all of those were powerhouses back then.

I wish it would happen because playing Auburn every year is pretty damn boring.
