Bama should be ashamed of that nonconference schedule. I know Duke is ACC but they are middle of the pack at best and you know when you schedule them they wonāt be a threat. Itās very smart really because they are Power 5 and not a bottom feeder like Rutgers but not anyone that has a realistic chance to beat you either. The Arkansas schedule is pathetic again but they are certainly a bad team. Ours is fairly weak but not quite as bad as Arkansas and we are bad as well right now. Overall though the out of conference slate looks much better next year. This year is terrible outside of a couple early games.Here is the rest of the SEC.

Do not envy Vandy's start.

I know every team does it but I cannot stand these cupcake games. I cannot stress this enough. Itās a waste of a Saturday. I went to UTEP last weekend and it was completely pointless. Fans are quiet and bored, teams is lethargic and sloppy. Even if the team plays well itās still garbage. This needs to change. Go to 9 game SEC schedule and other games have to be power 5. The 2019 schedule is one of the worst Iāve seen for UT.
I agree 100% with you. If I lived close enough to have season tickets I would not want to waste my time and money on cupcake games.I know every team does it but I cannot stand these cupcake games.

Ya... and very optimistic, Iām looking st this recruiting class and thinking Morris, Wright, Smith on the line, Crouch as either a stud LB or game changing RB. I also See JJ Peterson on the other side. With Bogle and a very much improved Dline in their sophomore season. An elite qb in JG throwing to Ramel Keyton. Everyone is saying our 2020 class is going to be better then the 19 class, so Iām hoping we can have some instant contributions there as well. I also Would rather have Pruitt then Smart and think he will out coach him, and our talent level wonāt be quite on par with them yet, but I think it will be close enough to where we could sneak out of that game with a W. I guess My shades are very orange tinted, but at the same time everything I just states is possible! GBOI have to ask; what makes you think you will be better than Georgia by year 3? Seems as though you are looking through orange tinted glasses. I get hoping that, but to actually ātruly believeā that seems somewhat odd.
They do but playing Duke and 3 nobodies? Now the criticism last year was unfair. FSU was supposed to be good and was when scheduled and Colorado St and Fresno St werenāt nobodies. One Mercer does not a bad schedule make. But next yearās OOC for Bama is weak for any top 25 team.People usually complain about Bamas ooc schedule. And its ridiculous. Why? Because when it comes time to play the tough teams, Bama usually beats them.
Iām calling you crazy, but hope by some miracle youāre right.I think if we get to a bowl this year, sign a top 10 recruiting class, and keep improving under Pruitt we will win 9-10 games next year! Call me crazy but I truly believe thatās the direction weāre headed. Year 3 we are in the SEC championship and hopefully playoff conversation!
It may be the worst, but couldnāt come at a better time. Even if weāre not any better, except on the O line we could win 3 more games than this year. And with that , the fans and more importantly, recruits that are hung up on the record, and canāt see this years improvement, will see a team that is turned around and on the riseI know every team does it but I cannot stand these cupcake games.
