Meh, this season LSU beat two IA teams with winning records (AU and A&M) while I believe Bama beat 4 and Auburn beat 5 including the SECCG.

What don't you and other people get when discussing this?

LSU regularly has the toughest schedule in the nation

Sure you can say, "well, they didn't do to well win the season played", but frick that. The better team on your schedule can play bad, but at least you know you scheduled what is NATIONALLY perceived to be a good team. The fact that Bama's schedule consisted of only Virginia Tech and the SEC west, means that they got scheduled, chicken shite.

They somehow get TAMU/Manziel early and take their bye after their toughest OOC opponent, then gets a cushy SEC schedule mixed with east and west bottom feeders. Take a second bye, then play LSU. We on the other hand, decide to be railroaded on scheduling and that includes byes. We play our tough OOC opponent then go to face an UGA team who won the east, then a bottom feeder west team, then play a UF team that finished 11-2 and went to a BCS bowl. Play some ho hum teams then finally take our first bye (literally the last FBS team to do so) and play Bama. After that, we take a bye then play TAMU/Manziel.

Bama's schedule was made to insure that they win the west and go to the title game again. Our schedule was made so we play 9 games straight with two 11-2 teams mixed in and a ranked OOC opponent. Then we are to play Bama and Manziel in back-to-back games.
