They can't control it, but we don't have to pretend that makes it good. Auburn can't control that they have to play LSU, Florida and Alabama either...but there it is.

Agree on those points. But no one brought up conference play until you did.

Thanks to the SEC East that no testicle conference boosted it's average regular season P5 opponents to 9.

It is inexcusable for any B12 team to not have 10 P5 opponents unless a cancellation late happened. INEXCUSABLE

True.

And check out how many of the Big 12 schedules end with 9 straight conference games. I was looking at taking some of the grandkids to games and noticed Oklahoma schools, Texas and TCU all have that schedule. And OU and TCU end the year with ten straight games.

Either the Big 12 schedulers are pissed at those four or they need to go to the "Use of a bye week Class of Scheduling".

WVU gets very lucky having their bye week on Halloween. That’s pretty darn generous.

I guess they could, if they moved to the SEC East and had both Mississippi schools as their crossovers...would still be tougher than playing in the Pac-12.

Could be, but this thread is not about the "PAC-12.

Of course they didn't, because if you bring up the whole schedule in an argument with SEC West teams instead of just OOC you get your ass kicked...and yet, all the games get played, not just the OOC games.

Except this is a thread about OOC games. Having to bring up your conference schedule just reinforces how dogshit the OOC schedule is. Thus why you are getting your ass kicked in this discussion.

LOL, who are we kidding, you pathetic bitches are 4-20 over ranked P5 teams in the last 3 years...the 5 teams you mentioned also have 4 OOC ranked P5 wins. Let that sink in for a minute, these 5 SEC teams that you are attempting to disparage have as many ranked wins OOC as your entire pathetic 12 team conference in the last 3 years...you guys are fucking sad.

We are discussing it, hence this is a thread about it, you are just attempting to deflect.

Nice attempt at deflection, but it doesn't change the facts that were posted.

...it also won't change the ass kicking that is coming in September.

Again if "Kentucky, South Carolina, Tennessee, Vandy and Mizzou" were to move to any football conference in the nation, they wouldn't scare anyone.

More deflection.

You're not very good at this, are you?

You're confusing deflecting with not caring. I could care less who Auburn schedules OOC. I'm also not going to pretend they don't play a better overall schedule than ANY Pac-12 team.

Auburn is the measuring stick everyone now uses in college football. People just can't resist talking about us. We are addictive.

Last year was the 1st year the SEC East was arguably stronger than the PAC North, in how many years?
