If you don’t think the scheduling is biased, check out next years

Bama gets a bye before A&M and before LSU. You can’t tell me that wasn’t planned well in advance. LSU has a bye before Utah State and Bama. So basically Bama has two weeks to prepare for the two best teams in the SEC West.

Bama isn’t beating LSU right now because they have a bye before they play them. You should prolly look at it as a sign of respect. You want them to stop scheduling the bye before they play you become irrelevant.

Tennessee hasn’t been shite since the 90’s. We played Florida and UGA just this past year. The 2 best opponents we could have played in the East.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought scheduling was done between the schools? Is that just OOC?

Stop whining about Bama. Clemson handles Bama so there is no reason why we can’t.

I'm just upset that there are two bye weeks. Good for the players but, selfishly, I can't stand two long waits in the middle of the season.

Ok? Does it really matter if we can’t score a point on them?

Stop crying about biases they’ve beaten us 8 years in a row and it nothing to do with anyone in an office in Birmingham.

A few years ago Bama had like 7 teams on their schedule have a bye before playing them, just stop with the nonsense

Last season Alabama's two East teams went a combined 13-12, neither finishing ranked. LSU's East division opponents finished a combined 21-6, both teams ended up ranked in the top 10.

In 2019 Alabama gets Tennessee and USCe as East opponents, and Duke as their P5 opponent.

Check out their OOC schedule, too.

The joke is still ongoing...one of the longest jokes I've ever heard.

Considering that every school has the opportunity to request when their bye weeks are and also set their non-conference schedule accordingly, bye weeks are going to be biased towards the team that schedules them.

This isn't a conspiracy. It's a standard operating procedure. And it benefits every team.

If that gives us a better chance at beating them, then so be it

We are on a rotation. Bridge scheduling isn't a thing anymore. It just so happens Tennessee is awful right now, but historically they're the second strongest program in the conference. And Missouri was up on their rotation of non-permanent East teams this year, and it's not like Missouri sucked either. In 2020, Alabama will play UT and UGA. There is no scheduling bias

Their upcoming OOC games include USC, H&Hs with Notre Dame and Texas, and Miami. Not sure why we pretend Alabama hasn't typically scheduled good OOC games. They've recently scheduled games against FSU, Penn State, Louisville, Wisconsin, West Virginia, etc. It's not their fault FSU ended up sucking and Louisville completely fell apart. Those were plenty strong teams when the games were scheduled (years in advance).
