re: SEC schedule argument...

It's hard to argue that Bama somehow benefitted from an easier schedule and doesn't deserve the SEC title when Bama actually beats LSU on the field. Thus, in order for the scheduling argument to have any legitimacy, LSU at least needs to beat the Tide this season.

Possibly twice...yes, this is now reality, and it's disgraceful to the sport and to the spirit of competition, in general.

They do benefit. The last time Bama had to play two tough opponents in the same year, they ended the season with a 9-3 record. One of those losses came to USC. Plus the wear on your starters when LSU has to go toe-2-toe with UF and USC the whole game, it will have effects. Alleva and Miles know this. That's why they are pushing for a more balanced schedule.

LSU won 10 and 11 and Bama won 11 and 12. Bama needed a backdoor just to get into the 11 win. If Miles didn't open his bag of tricks last year, we would have been 3 consecutive season wins.
