    We had a bad schedule this season. Ole Miss, Arkansas, Mississippi State, Texas A&M, Tennessee, and South Carolina are average at best. Our OOC schedule is one of the worst in the country. Of 4 teams, 7-5 Southern Miss was the best team we played OOC. That's unacceptable for a team successful as Alabama has been. The fact is we played 2 difficult games and lost both. Sure we could've won both, but you shouldn't get rewarded for what ifs.

    I'd like to see some big changes to how the SEC schedules games. 9 conference games is a great start. Of the 13 other teams in the conference, we only play 8 teams every season and 7 of those games are locked in. So we only play 6 SEC teams (Missouri, Vanderbilt, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, and Kentucky) once every 6 years.

    Not at all haha. I'm just being honest about my team. They were living off their reputation. Like Slyfox said, if we were Minnesota or Baylor, no one would be talking about us.

    That's why I keep asking you sir, OU vs Bama in the Sugar Bowl? Sounds great to me.

    Alabama is still ranked ahead of Notre Dame, despite having done nothing to deserve it.

    I think #12 is more than fair for Alabama. I think we all know if Oregon State had played the exact same schedule as Bama, they'd be lower than #12. Don't believe me? Look at Minnesota.

    The SEC isn't going to change their schedule, because they LOVE the fact that their teams can play weak out of conference schedules and be rewarded for it with high rankings in the polls.

    It's a circular argument. The SEC starts with a high rank (based purely on speculation), play a bunch of nobodies in out of conference games (Auburn and LSU deserve mentions for not doing that this year) which only boosts their rankings, so when the SEC teams play each other, it is a matchup of one high ranked team against another, so when one of those teams lose, the voters say "Well, sure SEC team #2 lost to #1, but look at how high #1's ranking is!".

    It's a circular argument and a game the SEC has been playing for well over a decade. Remember how everyone said scores in the SEC were so low because the "defenses were just so good"? I do. And that was a load of crap then, as we see with the 40+ points being scored regularly now in the SEC.

    The SEC, with willing financial partner ESPN, has been undermining legitimacy in college football for a long time.

    Ryan Tannehill's success in Tennessee makes me wonder how many QB busts could've succeeded with better coaching.

    I really like how Cole Beasley makes his routes look so effortless.

    The NFL playoffs should be seeded by record.

    A 7-9 win team will host a 12-13 win team this season. How is that fair?

    Everyone says "just win ur division lmao!", but winning more games should be more valuable than playing in a terrible division.

    Tennessee fans are so cocky for a team that lost to Georgia State and BYU this season. They went 7-5 this season, but they act like they won the SEC. Michigan fans can be unreasonable, but they've at least won 10 games and been to a NY6 bowl recently. Tennessee hasn't accomplished anything.

    SEC East was fairly disappointing outside of Florida and Georgia.
