Realy naive and uncalled for to say proffesional men can't do their jobs becaue of where they went to school. So are you and the LSU administration calling people at the SEC offices unethical ?
Yes, im saying it. It's their responsibility to show that there's no favoritism. Instead they do quite the opposite.

I haven't spent nearly as much time as some on this, but seems like a very reasonable question.
SEC, I'm not understanding your argument about getting Mizzou instead of the @Vandy that would have been the rotation. Is the Kentucky for Georgia this year somehow balancing out that tough break last year?

That is not how it works.
You support the claim that they aren't ethical now prove it.

Prove that they are ethical by answering my question.
And you cant sit here and sit it is not a clear conflict of interest for Bama to hold that many high level positions within the SEC office.

This isn't a courtroom, but the scheduling anomalies coupled with the decision-making in the hands of those that could reasonably have bias towards a particular school would certainly be presented as circumstantial evidence, if it were. That much should be obvious even to you.

Since when does "bama" hold these positions?
Wow.
Also if you make a claim you are the one with the burden of proof. That's elementary logic.

There are MANY more.
When one RESEARCHES one finds a NETWORK.
I'm going to challenge you guys to dig em up, if you are so inclined. I have to get some work done.
Note that there are many, many more who did not go to any SEC school but who have employment ties to either The University of Alabama athletic department or education/employment ties to schools in the University of Alabama system. It is an OVERWHELMINGLY ALABAMA-CENTRIC OFFICE.

If they graduated from, worked at, or played for a certain school it is a clear conflict of interest.
You still haven't answered my question

As LSUpimp has shown,there are enough Alabama grads/connections in the SEC scheduling department that they COULD manipulate the schedule if they wanted.
And you want us to believe that the random bridge schedules and random uneven number of SECWest home games are just randomly in favor of Alabama?
Right, you probably also expect us to believe the permanent opponents with UT and Florida are about preserving tradition. Even though there are many better ways to go about it if we were interested in fairness.

No it's not. It's legal logic.
This is the court of opinion. People here are arguing right vs. wrong. Not legal vs. illegal.

Where was all this pro-Bama schedule bias in 2010 when we faced 6 teams coming off their bye weeks.
Oh, let me guess the typical TR answer: The Bama alum conspirators did it on purpose, so as to look unbiased, all the while as they planned to set us up for an easier schedule later.

This has been covered. It happened, wasnt right, people complained, it got fixed. We're trying to do the same thing here.

Just like that hmmm.
So when Bama is hit with unfavorable circumstances, oh it's just happenstance.
But when it's LSU, aw hell no! It's clearly an intentional conspiracy to undermine LSU.

. It sucks but do you expect them to toughen up Alabama's schedule and even it out?
Yes, god damn it, that's exactly what I expect them to do.
The schedule is a bad joke everyone knows.
