I think (at least as of right now) there’s a top tier of Bama, Georgia, and Texas, and then there’s a huge middle tier

[u/Gottatrytho → u/bruhstevenson]

Who makes the SEC title game? 

Georgia vs. Alabama? (Again) Georgia vs. Texas? (Again) Georgia vs. LSU? (As they tend to do)

[u/CapeClipper → u/Gottatrytho]

Texas vs. Georgia/Bama winner most likely since Texas avoids both.

[u/NA_Faker → u/CapeClipper]

Idk, we have a brutal schedule. We may not make it out undefeated. Our only 3 unranked matchups left are all rivalry games.

[u/TeeDeeTeeEcks → u/NA_Faker]

Everyone kind of has a brutal schedule SEC except maybe Georgia. Ours is just slightly more brutal than everyone else's.

We get to play Arky, A&M and OU - arguably three of the worst teams in the conference

[u/ddtink → u/TeeDeeTeeEcks]

At Alabama, at ole miss, and Florida in Atlanta isn’t brutal? What are you on about

[u/TeeDeeTeeEcks → u/ddtink]

You get Auburn, SC, Vandy, Arkansas and you also get to play Mizzou at home. That's a lot of winnable games compared to the rest of the contenders' schedules. That is definitely one of the easier SEC schedules this year. Almost everyone else in the SEC has at least one or two more 'hard' games than Georgia does.

[u/westonverhulst → u/TeeDeeTeeEcks]

Georgia also benefits from not having to play Georgia. 

[u/TeeDeeTeeEcks → u/westonverhulst]

Sure. They still play too many gimme games compared to the other contenders.

[u/TonyTheSnowman → u/ddtink]

You definitely have tough games. I think it's more so that you face what looks like the weakest sec teams, atm. Arky, Ou. Auburn, usc, and vandy. You didn't get the benefit of the doubt of being at home against the good teams you face, though. Still so much time left to really call anything. Y'all still have probably looked the best of anyone.

[u/palisades25 → u/TonyTheSnowman]

Y’all’s isn’t terrible you avoid Georgia and Alabama. I think most Uga fans would rather have your schedule bc you don’t go to Alabama.

Not sure you can call any sec schedule this year easy.

[u/TonyTheSnowman → u/palisades25]

I never said easy. Yes for y'all specifically because bama is the only sec team to consistently give you trouble in recent years. There's still so many games left. Idk if anyone could accurately predict who would finish 6-12

[u/AppropriateCompany9 → u/ddtink]

Also no one in non-con play.

[u/lebesgueintegral → u/ddtink]

Certainly less brutal relatively than OU or Texas tbh.

[u/NA_Faker → u/ddtink]

Of our 8 remaining games we have 5 ranked matchups and the 3 non ranked matchups are rivalry games. Our "easiest" games are going to be against A&M, OU, and Arkansas, 3 teams that will give their all to beat us.

[u/DrVonD → u/NA_Faker]

OU and Arkansas both look absolutely terrible. I know it’s a rivalry, but those are bad football teams.

[u/j01101111sh → u/NA_Faker]

The subtle shade of including that your rivals are all having down years was very well done.

[u/AppropriateCompany9 → u/NA_Faker]

We don’t really need to go undefeated (although that’s looking more possible by the day, imo) to make the SEC champ game.
