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.

Thank you sir.



I live in alabama, and had a discussion yday that points out how delusional Gump fans are.

In talking about their 2011 and 2012 schedule and pointing out how weak they were vs east division teams, his response was "well we played Arkansas and Mississippi state"

I pointed out the obvious that they we both played SEC west opponents.

His reply was "well, we play them before y'all and made them quit"

I informed him that in 2011 we played MSU before they did. And in 2012 yes, MSU was 7-0 vs an extremely soft schedule, then ran into Bama, A&M and LSU three straight weeks.


As for Arkansas they played Bama week 3 in 2011, then won 8 straight and lost to LSU....guess it was delayed making then quit.

And in 2012, well they were 1-1 having lost to ULM the week before (also threw in remark about what type if coach would lose to Ulm that went over his head)


As with most Gumps, at this point he was perplexed and fell to the old standby of all time SEC records
