Clemson vs Bama --- 4 years in a row...meanwhile coots...

...haven't played Bama since 2010 yet they are in the same conference. And they lament on how hard it is for them in the SEC.

Dabo & Co gave Muscoot the blueprint for beating Bama. I'm expecting the Coots should easily beat them by two or three touchdowns this season.

Out of the 3 current best teams in the SEC, future Coot schedules have only one per season slated. Call us Coots when you take on Bama and LSU or Georgia in the same season.

Yeah the 14 team conference model really doesnt work very well... particularly if you have a recurring cross division opponent.. it leaves a long slow rotation of the other remaining non-division opponents. Believe it or not, 16 teams would be easier to schedule/rotate. I worked up such a rotation when the expansion rumors were going crazy... it looks something like this.
You still have two divisions but each division is made up of two 4-team pods. You play the 3 other teams from your pod every season then rotate the other 5 games. There would still be some gaps in how often you play teams but it would be much more reasonable.

But the purpose of splitting into divisions is get the best team from each division. Your version doesn’t do that since you are rotating through 3 other pods instead of focusing on playing all teams in your division. Therefore you are incorrect sir! Let’s be honest: if you don’t play everybody in the conference every year you aren’t really a conference you’re just a loose affiliation of random geographical areas.

MNah their schedule is the second hardest, Nancy Pelosi's husband's secretary has the hardest one, that is trying to schedule him out of town as much as possible to be away from her! Uof5C is a close second!

Clemson lost 20 - 22 (seriously).
Clemson and Vandy (an Ole Miss too for that matter) actually scheduled a home and away series a few years ago but it was later cancelled by mutual agreement of the two schools.

The irony is that the coots dread and complain about having to play AL, but we cherish it and look forward to beating them again.

Avoid playing The Citadel 4 years in a row for fear of 4 straight losses.

It pretty much the same schedule they play every year...

with the exception of Bama.
They have feasted on the weak sisters in the $EC West for years and now that they finally have to play a team from the west with an actual pulse, they whine and cry like a bunch of prepubescent twelve year old girls.
