A look at the SEC schedule inequity... The SEC could go to a scheduling system that gives teams that were better the previous season a harder schedule and teams that were worse an easier schedule, but that would end many traditional rivalries and make the East-West divisional scheme problematic. The SEC has a long history of unequal schedules. You had SEC champs who played only 6 or 7 conference games in a 12 or 10 team conference and teams always used to play the same teams. LSU would always play Kentucky, Ole Miss, Miss. State and Florida and hardly ever play Georgia, Tennessee and Vandy.

It's pretty screwing. When you're competing for the same conference title, your schedules should be somewhat equal. Arkansas' SECE opponents have twice as many wins as Bama's. It is more likely that Arkansas will have two more loses than Bama.
