Why not? Look around the league for me and tell me what you see.


Our OOC schedule #12 in the SEC right now, that's despite most of our opponents were huge disappointments


We don't control SEC scheduling

Obviously not, we'd schedule Bama and Missouri every game.

Is he saying other SEC teams have it easier than us in league play?

Jang, you need to up your reading comprehension this morning.

He is saying this year our 2x SEC opponents were all bottom tier SEC teams and not UK/UF/Arkansas/SCAR


For example, Mizz by the fact they didn't have to play themselves had a harder SOS than Auburn. We had to play them 3x

If we didn't play Mizz once we have been top 75

I find it hilarious when Auburn fans deny or minimize the importance of stats, rpi, information, SOS, etc, whenever it reflects negative insight on their beloved Tigers teams. If Oklahoma and Uconn were both stout, y'all would be touting the SOS, but now it is useless.

Auburn sucks and lot of SEC teams beat Auburn twice..and they're still ahead of Auburn in the SOS.

We'd be giving away two SEC wins too.

No one is arguing that our SOS wasn't great this year.

What Rig is saying is we tried to schedule a quality OOC schedule, we just got pretty unlucky with those teams collapsing this year

There is nothing we can do about getting a shitty conference schedule. We literally have zero control on that + Big12 challenge

Giving away 2 wins


Ya we would, but we aren't talking about W/L but SOS and explaining why ours was so bad

If we replaced 2 wins over LSU/Mizz with UF/UK we'd be 16-15 just like say Tamu with a top 50-60ish SOS

Jang, if you are upset that our SOS collapsed and wasn't good by shite luck we are on board

If you are suggesting we purposefully scheduled a Barbee esque shite schedule, that's bullshite.


It reads as the second one

Well the only two other people who responded sure AF think it does based on that + your responses

We had a shitty SOS but wasn't our fault. We've tried to schedule better OOC games and we had a shitty conf slate

Talking to someone who deals with BBall for AU, our biggest SOS obstacle is finding teams willing to not screw us and throw us a bone.

Nope. You cannot read in my posts that I thought we purposefully scheduled a shite schedule. It's not there. It's not even between the lines.

We did try to schedule a better OOC slate of teams, but the rest of the SEC has to play in the shitty conference as well. Did every single SEC team just play better OOC teams?
We still played Purdue, TCU, Uconn, and Oklahoma.

So the rest of the SEC played Missouri 3x and LSU 2x? Stop being a dumbass, we literally just went over this. We had the weakest SEC SOS slate in the conference by a large margin.


Like I said, your reading comprehension today is 2 grade level bro.

Does conference tournament results count in the SOS? Does the rest of the SEC have to play weak Auburn this year? Again, most of your examples end up being a push. We sucked this year despite a shitty SOS. Confront that fact and quit living in denial. Oh, and stop being a DA.
