A&M does NOT deserve props. Look at their week ass non-conference schedule. Lamar, SMU, Lousiana-Monroe, Rice...
As you all know they play Aug30, no Bethune Cookman, Savannah State, Navy for these guys and it's good to see. With strength of schedule becoming more important than ever with the new 4 team playoff system it's time to start dumping these David vs Goliath games. Who wants to see LSU 75 Grambling 10?
South Carolina and Texas A&M also deserve props, they play Aug 28th. NCAA football needs more of that and less or none of Alabama vs Western Carolina on Nov 11th.
Sure some of these RinkyDinky States have a few good players but that's all they have.

But, but, the SEC is so tough they need at least 4 cream puff nonconf. games to make it fair.
Suprised they have not scheduled Div VII teams...
On the plus side, maybe one of UTSA's games against A&M will make it on to the SEC Network.
Lol obsessed with all things a&m. It never gets old seeing how much the tides have turned between these two fan bases.
Anyway, for the one thousandth time, it was hard for us to find any worthy opponents on such short notice after the conference move, resulting in a week non conf schedule the past couple years. We have Arizona State and home and home series' with UCLA and Oregon all on the schedule throughout the next few years.
And for those questioning our schedule, we play Alabama, Auburn, LSU, South Carolina, Missouri and Ole Miss this season. That's far from easy.
hardly obsessed. i simply can't let such an egregious statement go unchallenged. And there's nothing that special about South Carolina. They're basically the SEC's version of Oklahoma State.
"With strength of schedule becoming more important than ever with the new 4 team playoff system"
Playoff system makes OOC scheduling counter productive. There are now 4 spots for the le Game while previously there were only 2. Finish your Conference schedule undefeated and you are a near lock for one of those 4 spots.
Teams won't be scheduling OOC. Which is why we need those 4-16 Team Super Conferences. Til then we are stuck in a period with large disparity in scheduling. I don't blame SEC schools not scheduling OOC, the Florida Gators haven't traveled outside of Florida for OOC in 30 years and yet won 3 NCs.
I'm fine with one or two creampuffs on P5 schedules if only for the payout. lolutsa needs that money.
Anytime an SEC team starts off playing league in week one they deserve props, especially on the road. All these teams play Tiny Tech's. Good to see a couple stand tall in week one.
LSU vs Wisconsin, more props.
Georgia vs Clemson props!
Florida vs Idaho
Watch as we start seeing all these team scheduling a higher level of oppposition that they used to. We wil hear..."they got the nod because of strenght of schedule". That will change college football. Too bad for the little guys who needed the $$$$.

no they don't. Playing a school like Lamar in the middle of the season is like getting an extra BYE week.
you're a goddamn moron.
It goes both ways. There's pros to playing the weaker teams early and pros to playing them late.
South Carolina is better than any team in the big 12.
There's no negatives to playing weaker teams at any given time during the season.
Oklahoma is better than Alabama
Coaches don't think so since we have Oklahoma ranked 3 and Baylor ranked 10th only 44 pts behind USC.
It makes no sense at all to play RinkyDinky State late. You are trying to get into a groove, why risk injury in a late season game where the outcome was never in doubt?
You wanna get serious and stay that way. Not have a everyone slapping ass and jivin' around then try and reload the following week...game.
even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in awhile.
No they aren't. They aren't on a par with Oklahoma and a case can be made for Baylor being better but a realistic debate there.
Trust me only a fool thinks Oklahoma is better than Alabama.
Just saying that because I think this years South Carolina will be the best team Spurrier has had. I think they will win the East and have a chance for the playoff.
Swap out "playoff" for "BCS" and this exact same thing has been said every year since Spurrier got there
Georgia has been favored to win the east the last 3 years according to the sec pre season media poll. Probably longer than three years but I just know they have been picked to win the east the last three.
South Carolina is picked to win the east this year which is a change.
Not that those things matter, nobody had Missouri and auburn in it last year. But south carolina isn't always predicted to win or something like you are insinuating.
Where's your skin? Or did you even go to college? Jw
