Complaining about Florida vs Tennessee is wrong. It is what detracts from the real argument.

Just accept that it's cyclical.

What is the problem and should be screamed to high heaven about is the custom made bridge schedules approved for Alabama in 2012 and 2013.

Taking SEC East favorite Georgia off of Alabama's schedule and replacing them with Mizzou (that was projected 4-5) in 12 and Kentucky (projected last) this year was just criminal. At the same time LSU got USC and UGa, meaning we got two of the top three teams in the east.

The fact that this change was made knowing the relative strength of Tennessee vs Florida (ie that Bama already had an easier schedule than LSU) and the fact that the process was overseen and approved by an individual who was raise in Tuscaloosa, went to Alabama and worked there was a blatant conflict of interest.

Even if it was spit out by a computer, his job was to have the final say and it showed a lack of integrity that he allowed this schedule that was contrary to the competitive spirit of the league to happen. If he either needed to do what was right, or recuse himself.

And the Gump fans don't have any honest or valid arguments to counter this, so they spout out its crying, whining or "bama-cessed".

It appears some LSU fans are falling on board.

Sorry but LSUs fans calling out the farce of an undeserving Gump team being in the BCS title game in 2011 and the shenanigans in the league office that paved them an easy path (which was the difference bc LSU/Bama/A&M were 1-1 head to head) to the BCS title game are far more valid than the gumps claim to national titles and being the "best" team in 2011 and 2012.

This aggression shall not stand!

Dont forget Bama got an extra SECW home game in 2012 for no apparent reason.
