Going into this season there seemed to be a consensus that the sec was going to have a down year, than as we neared the preseason polls the sec hype machine started to roll but still no one really thought the sec had a #1 team among them and when everyone looked around they couldn’t quite put Criminal U there because well they lost so many players over last year’s team that couldn’t close the deal, then there was bama, Nick Sabin gets much love from the pollsters as well as excuses when his teams lose but they still couldn’t see themselves putting an sec team there so #2 for you Sabin so that left Florida State which boggles the mind how the pollster came to that and when some reason creped in they put them at 4th, no way in hell was Boise State going to start out 1 or 2 despite so many pieces from last year’s puzzle coming back so #5 for you so that left who for #1 OU lol who’s work to date has caused back sliding in votes and in one poll, I will tell you this folks OU will lose 3 games this year before it’s over and honestly they may very well have the toughest schedule of all top 10 teams in the polls. I see seven potential close call games and I believe they will lose 3 of them, but alas don’t fret my AQ lovers the sec is the greatest thing slice bread begin! And oh has it in earnest! And if OU fails and whoever over takes OU when OU fails we have Wisconsin with their pirated loop hole QB and offensive line that got owned in the Rose Bowl riding shot gun just in case. There will be no MNCG buster this year Toledo be damned!
Now as you might know I completely disagree with the talking heads of the msm and their giant check cashing employers espn, cbs, abc, and Disney I’d add in the B1G network but really folks if you have every listen to their game calls and commentary you know just how far spread out the college football game has become because there is no talent left to call games and do programing. So let’s take a closer look at this tough scheduling of the best conference in college football.
Bama
Kent state 1-3 Losses at home to Lousiana-Lafayete 20-12 win @ home over South Alabama 33-25
North Texas 1-3 Lost to Houston at home 48-23@ home win Indiana 24-21
Penn State 3-1 only beat E Michigan 34-6 at home and nearly lost to Temple 14-10 on the road.. do you really want me to add Indiana state game?
Arkansas 3-1 Big wins if you can call them that 38-28 @ home vs Troy??? Yep real power house team there sec. Lost to bama 38-14 other non con game Muzz State and New Mexico all @ Home.
Auburn the sec reigning champ 3-1
Utah State 42-38 in a desperate struggle @ home again a last place wac school LOL
Miss State 41-34 Lost to non con Clemson 38-24 and pulled out squeaker @ home vs Florida Atlantic.
Oh the bravery of the sec scheduling….
South Carolina 4-0
Home against ecu 56-37 thing is the game was much closer than that, where’s the D sec?
Georgia 45-42 conference game
Home Navy 24-21 LOL yep don’t let those mid shipmen sink you so early …
Vandy 21-3 in the ugliest of games @ home!
Georgia 2-2 couldn’t wait to get to its non con cream puffs Costal Carolina, beat old Miss 27-13the only ranked conference opponent left for them is Florida but hey everyone says the sec east is weak it’s the sec west that owns the world.. Well if you mean world of little sisters of the poor at home you are certainly right.
So just how good is the rest of the big bad sec west??
Miss State 2-2 big wins over that power house Memphis and an escape @ home vs Louisiana Tech @ home, hey isn’t that a WAC school, a bottom tear wac school at that, I wonder if there was any blown calls in that one? Here is the thing that gets me shouldn’t LSU blow out a team that nearly loses in overtime to a last place wac school at home? Yet it was only 19-6? Hum something isn’t adding up …..
Don’t worry fans of Miss state you still have UAB and Power house Tennessee-Martin on your schedule.
Then there is that SEC west Power OleMiss 1-3 LOL lost at home to BYU 14-13 , I bet they sure are glad Boise changed to playing Georgia would hate to think of just how much of a blowout it would have been for a home opener. Hell the Dawgs took them to the wood shack 27-13 and we all know how Boise Dominated the Dawgs in the Georgia dome.
Then there is everyone’s sweat heart LSU 4-0 these mighty tigers have beaten a Criminal U team that had to replace almost all of its O line most of its D and was suspect in the first place. Let’s not forget the spanking they put on Miss State 19-6 ROTFLMAO!! Or that home beat down of Northwestern state?? Who is that?
But we all must respect the bravery of the tigers going to Morgan town home of the big east also ran mountaineers… out of respect to the reader I won’t use what I normal refer to the vw team but I’m sure it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure it out. That same big east aq fo held off the mighty turps just after playing what is probably the worst half of football a D1 school has ever played at home vs a DII school in Norfolk State don’t you tiger fans worry though there is plenty of cream puffs left like Kentucky Tennessee Auburn Ole Miss, and even a non-sec team Western Kentucky, God I wonder could Boise State handle such an awesome schedule as that? I mean when you look at lsu and Bama’s schedule for the rest of the year I think other than playing each other and possibly Florida or Arkansas their might not be another team on their schedule that’s over .500..
Now I understand many of you sec folk as well as the I love my aq teams are not to familur with the Likes say TCU 3-1 Colorado State 3-1 San Diego State 3-1 Wyoming 3-1 Air Force 2-1 or even Fresno 2-2 Nevada 1-2 Hawaii 2-2 So I will point out that Nevada Losses were away @ criminal U and Texas Tech , surely criminal U beat them to a palp however Texas Tech will tell you that team has greatly improved since its opener against Criminal U so as well they handled San Jose away much better than an already named sec team did at home. Of course there is Fresno known for taking all comers and they sure did have those folks in the cornhusker state scared deep into the 4th.
Wyoming sure did beat up on some locally teams, weber state Texas State then traveled east to Bowling green and won came home and lost a hard fought game to #9 Nebraska 38-14,
San Diego State 3-1 Cal Poly who cares, Army away 23-20, Washington State pac 12 aq team whipped them 42-24 went to the big house and laid an egg 28-7 but I bet Michigan won’t be asking them to come back anytime soon .
TCU Lost a heart breaker in the opener to Baylor at Baylor 5-48 and has smoked everyone since.
Air force always a tough team they are however kind of like a box of chocolates you never know for sure what you are going to get. Their only loss so far is in conference to TCU I’m beting they don’t drop another one until they play Boise. They got Navy and Notre Dame coming up before Boise should be interesting..
So for all you AQ lovers out there when you look just below the fuzz the MSM feeds you to support their efforts to capitalize on large pay days let me ask you this, who’s schedule would you rather have if you wanted to win, Boise States or LSU cream puffs? I’d much prefer LSU’s the only game I see as being hard on that one is bama’s other than that it’s a walk. Personally I think bama has the easiest of all schedules because I don’t think Less Miles can put enough Offense in to the bama game to win it.
So before you all keep spouting off about sec that sec this strength of schedule this strength of schedule that, maybe you should actually take a look at the schedule see who’s played who and where, then reconsider the facts, Hey folks I ain’t say’in you are stupid I’m just say’in you just haven’t suspected what the facts are, new information requires a new determination
