Bama's conference opponents are South Carolina (RV, away), Mississippi (RV, home), Texas A&M (#11, away), Tennessee (RV, home), Arkansas (home), LSU (#6, home), Mississippi State (RV, away) and Auburn (#16, away).
Alabama does not face the following SEC teams prior to the conference championship game: #3 Georgia, #8 Florida, RV Kentucky, Missouri, Vanderbilt.
Another tidbit: the coaches for New Mexico State and Southern Miss are voters in the coaches poll.
Vegas has our over/under at 6.5 wins. Against Alabama’s schedule, I’m guessing we’d be at 8 or 8.5 wins.
Hats off to the SEC and Alabama’s feckless scheduler for playing the CFP game correctly. Roll tide!
Personally, I prefer a tough schedule in which all the OOC games are interesting, especially in our situation of not really having a likely shot at the CFP.
