the only problem I have with the schedule is we play the two best SBC teams back to back, both away games, and with only a 5 day turnaround. I don't know who came up with that, but its almost guarantees we will lose atleast one if not both those games, and to "pour salt in the wound", Georgia Southern doesn't play either one of them, how the hell does that happen?

Our only 5-day turnaround is before Ga. Southern, and they have the same turnaround. We get a normal week between Arkansas State and ULL.

But your point about the unbalanced schedules is a good one. One of the better arguments out there for adding a conference championship game.
