2013 football schedules (LSU, Bama, aTm) and thoughts on TCU vs LSU

I found it interesting to see that the big three in the west mostly have a bye week before they play each other. But then again, I wasn't thinking about all the hype and cash that brings in for each game.
Bama vs aTm - week 3 of the season and both will probably be in the top 5. aTm plays rice and sam Houston state (basically a bye). bama plays va tech then a bye. this plays out better for aTm IMO. 2 cupcakes then bama while bama has a tough first game. if they struggle against va tech, it'll put a lot more pressure on them at a rowdy kyle field.
LSU vs bama - after our early season gauntlet, we get our first much needed bye before the week 11 game (furman the week before that will help too). bama also has a bye and tennesse the week before. both teams could be coming into the game with a loss. bama could be undefeated and #1. we could be undefeated too but the media bama love will have them ranked higher. regardless it'll be the game of the week in Bryant denny.
LSU vs aTm - this works out great for us. bye week, bama, bye week, at home for aTm. on the other side, they play moo state, bye then us. I love our chances in this game. depending on what happens with bama, we could be hosting espn's game day.
LSU vs TCU - last but should've been first I guess (this game doesn't worry me so it's last). they lost to iowa state, texas tech (3 OT), OK state, Kansas state, Oklahoma and Michigan state. TCU won't have any idea what our offense will do and neither do we. the defense is usually ahead of the offense. But, I think les and cam will show them some new wrinkles. On the other side, they have some big boys up front but they can't handle our D line. We roll easily on national TV.
TCU schedule
Bama schedule
aTm schedule
I can't wait for this season. It could be special but it will definitely be fun.

My biggest problem with the schedule isn't really the East opponents or whatever, it's how that sets up the difficulty of the extended stretches of games without a bye or Non-BCS opponent.
If LSU wins the West over Bama or A&M this year, I better never hear another complaint about Les Miles again.
LSU's longest SEC stretch without a bye:
Sep. 21 Auburn - -
Sep. 28 at Georgia - -
Oct. 5 at Mississippi St. - -
Oct. 12 Florida - -
Oct. 19 at Ole Miss
Bama's longest SEC stretch without a bye:
Oct. 12 at Kentucky Lexington, Kentucky
Oct. 19 Arkansas Bryant-Denny Stadium
Oct. 26 Tennessee Bryant-Denny Stadium
A&M's longest SEC stretch without a bye:
Oct 12 at Ole Miss * Oxford, Miss. TBA
Oct 19 Auburn * Kyle Field (College Station) TBA
Oct 26 Vanderbilt * Kyle Field (College Station)

I would go one step further and say the same if we lost out on a 3 way tie.

This.
I think this years team is going to be very talented and will surprise some people. However, with the way the schedule's are set up for LSU, Bama, and aTm, a 3-way tie would be an awesome year for LSU. Losing only one game with our SEC schedule would be VERY impressive.

a 3 way tie will not happen.
Either bama runs the table or
we have a two way tie
All depends on how good bama will be
I would love to dream the Tigers do it again- I just can't see that far right now

We will beat TCU.
We will lose to Texas A&M and Alabama.

I hope we are all wrong and the Tigers win the west

Virginia Tech isn't a tough game. They're a classic overhyped ACC team. Their record is atrocious against top 5 opponents and Bama will indeed be a top 5 opponent. Last time I checked they were 1-27 all time vs top 5 teams.

I actually think TCU may be the team to beat in the Big 12. I think they beat LSU by 2-3 TDs.

Voodoo, the way I look at it:
Patterson > Miles
TCU offense > LSU offense
TCU D = LSU D
Home game for the toads.
Easy pick

I'm not here to bash LSU, but have you seen the behemoths TCU has up front? Not to mention they were one of the youngest teams in CFB last year. Plus they get Waymon and Paulhall back

Despite the fact that you're pretty clearly an alter trolling, I'll bite.
LSU has only lost by more than 13 points 5 times in Miles' 8 year tenure.
3 of them were in 2008.
1 was in the 2005 SECCG when LSU simply had no gas left in the tank.
The other was 1/9.
If you think it's an "easy pick" that LSU is going to lose to TCU by "2-3 TDs", I'd love to hear what you think this TCU juggernaut is going to do to your Neers this year.

I'm not expecting much from the EERs, and TCU beat us last year with Smith, Bailey, and Austin.
I expect TCU to light us up light a pinball machine.

Please use proper grammar when starting a thread.

No freaking way we lose to A&M at home, and I pray we snatch a victory in Gumpville!
