about the blatant bias in scheduling to help Alabama win the title again. Once again they play no hard teams from the east and now they get 2 bye weeks for their only 2 tough games (A&M,LSU)all year. I mean I have finally come aroud The conspiracy people was right all along. This is downright ridiculous at this point

Bama just has to split the A&M and LSU games and they are back in the BCS title game - probably without even having to play the SECCG

What have you done to challenge the media about this?

I love this topic. Georgia and Florida won't complain. They don't have to play against bama. They were removed from the rotation to clear the path for Saban again. It doesn't take the FBI to realize what's going on. Cheaters cheat but when you complain about it, it is considered "sour grapes".

this is painted as LSU fans whining. and, to an extent, that is true. but it IS also true that bama got to skate both years of the "temporary" schedule. yes, ut is down but in BOTH years LSU pulled top contenders from the east and bama pulled NONE. that's 4 for LSU, zero for the a-hole at bama. yes, i am whining. conspiracy? i'm not sure. no proof but i'm still pissed, even if it's luck of the draw. i also hate, HATE, the permanent rival bull shite. the SEC is too big for that now. these need to be junked in favor of as true a round robin as can be produced. that is the ONLY fair way to do it.

I think the OP asked why the media, not other SEC schools don't complain.

Under original pre-expansion schedule, Bama would have played UGA both years. They got out if both games. Only other similar situation was UF-Ole Miss, and WGAF?

I'd like to hear some thoughts.

I mean, call it sour grapes all you want.
The schedule has been crazy easy and they've only been called for offensive holding like...what? twice in two years.

Those aren't opinions. They're facts.

I think it's a resonably certain assuption that the Red Devils having won 3 out of the last 4 National Championships has a tad more to do with superior coaching, preparation, organization and game management than cheating.

Is there some biased scheduling going on there inside the fire filled caves at the Red Devil (Satan-Saban) executive headquarters? (S.E.C.) Probably there is, but just beat who ya gotta beat and STFU. (Cam to the rescue)

BTW, everybody cheats. It's just a matter of who hides their tracks and covers it up the best.

It is obvious and crazy. But, who does it benefit to have Alabama win like this except Alabama? Not the SEC. So, the fact that the SEC office is full of Bama grads/fans should tell you something.

We shouldn't have to overcome an unfair schedule. And doing so does not address or solve the inequity.

Agreed, when the schedule didn't sufficiently help Bama, they required us to beat them twice.

As much as the ESPN loves idol gossip, it seems like they would be all over this story
