It looks like the SEC discontinued the practice of every school playing Alabama after having the prior week off. Two years ago, Alabama played six SEC games the week after an opponent’s bye week. Last year Bama had three opponents coming off a bye week.
This year Arkansas plays the most teams after their open date – three – South Carolina, Ole Miss, and Auburn. Missouri, Kentucky, and LSU each face two opponents coming off a bye week.
The 2012 Mizzou schedule is the hardest one in the SEC, by far. ASU, Syracuse, and Central Florida is as tough a OOC schedule as it gets in the SEC. No other school comes close. The other schools play, maybe, one decent OOC game, the rest are cream puffs. MSU has the easiest schedule in the SEC, four directionals, UK, and UT. Throw in Ole Miss and that’s 7 wins easy.
I agree about the MSU schedule being easy, but I don’t think you can call Kentucky, Tennesee, and Ole Miss definite wins.
Marvin, while I may not agree Mizzou has the hardest non conference I will agree that Mississippi State has the easiest. Look at it by tradeoffs =>
Mizzou plays 2 Top 25-50 teams but plays them both at home. Central Florida is not South Florida and South Florida is not Florida State
The 4 pack must play cross conference rivals who are like conference rival games in other conferences so UF vs FSU = Alabama vs Auburn
+ Kentucky will play a Top 10 – Top 25 Louisville @ Louisville
+ Georgia will play a Top 20 – Top 40 Georgia Tech at HOME
+ South Carolina will play a Top 10 – Top 20 Clemson @ Clemson
+ Florida will play a Top 5 – Top 15 Florida State @ Florida State
Two more SEC schools will play old ACC rivals in games played at neutral sites
+ Tennessee will play a Top 25 – Top 50 North Carolina State
+ Auburn will play a Top 10 – Top 20 Clemson @ Clemson – this will be the 50th game between 2 schools with so much entwined history
Several more SEC schools will play major schools from the major conferences – Big 12, Big 10, Big East, and PAC 12
+ Mississippi will play a Top 10 – Top 20 Texas
+ Arkansas will play a Top 15 – Top 30 Rutgers
+ Alabama will play a Top 10 – Top 20 Michigan
+ Louisiana State will play a Top 20 – Top 40 Washington
Realignment forced TAMU to buy 2 FCS schools but Louisiana Tech may be the Boise State of this football season
I have no answer for Mississippi State and their having no major schools in the non conference schedule which leaves me with the toughest scheduler
+ Vanderbilt, who is a traditional cellar dweller scheduled a Top 15 – Top 30 Northwestern and a Top 25 – Top 50 Wake Forest {based on last season}
While a decent football school like Mizzou scheduling 2 AQ schools is tough, a much weaker school doing it is pretty ballsy.
When you consider that all the SEC schools must play in the toughest conference in america and everybody besides the Bulldogs schedules a solid power conference school I think 1 or 2 cream puffs is not bad at all. It is tougher to play 1 ranked non conference game and 1 FCS school than it is to play 2 schools from the MAC or CUSA. When you observe the SEC putting 5 different teams in the MNC against the best from the ACC, Big 10, Big 12, and PAC 12 and beating all of them it indicates they were prepared by playing so many good teams during the regular season. On top of the the SEC has been playing the extra Conference Championship Game for over 2 decades now and that makes some tough teams.
One thing stands out with this years schedule and that is the Aggies playing LSU at home and then three straight away games against Auburn, MSU, and Alabama. Talk about a killer schedule. How come no other SEC team has three away games in a row?

welcome to the internacine bloodbath
the chosen few
On December 1, I see Bama 13-0 and looking forward to another National Championship, Roll Tide.
We’ll see on November 3 when LSU meets Alabama after a bye week.
This SEC football schedule grid is the best, keep up the good work! Bookmark.
I believe that Missouri will be the suprise team in the SEC East. They may not win the division, but they will finish second.
Counting Down.
SEC RULES the NATION
TIDE RULES THE SEC
