Schedule strength is SEC priority

If anyone dares to read about the crying some are doing, my ? for them is if you're wanting to be known as the best why you so scared to play the best. As Dabo would say "Spot the D____ Ball"

Well......your boy Dabo has spotted the ball for five straight years against a team that can't even win the SEC.

So, Scar gets Texas A&M...

As a permanent Western Division rival?
The SEC just loves dem chickens oh so much!!!
You coulda "drawn" Miss St or Ole Miss. But no, Texas A&M.
Scar fans, remember to keep waving those SEC flags when you watch teams other than your own playing for all the marbles. The SEC really did y'all a solid.

We do it out of habit

We used to add 1AA teams to improve our OOC schedule because the chickens would drag us down.

Smart move by them. I hope we'll push for the same sort of strategy. I'd like to see Clemson have 2 consistently scheduled games vs SEC teams. Would really love it if we could keep the Dawgs on our schedule permanently.

I thought the OkSt matchup would've been great

Travelwise it would've been a hassle but I've been a lot farther to see us play. I feel that both teams are both making huge strides. And both teams have great coaches who love to score points. Plus, it'd be a good measuring stick game.
But I still never mind seeing ThUGA on the schedule. It's great for recruiting purposes and not to far away. It's just their fanbase.

True...I'd actually like to see maybe doing a home & home with UGA, then a home & home with another team, then back to UGA, then back to another.
It would be nice to go UGA, A&M, UGA, Southern Cal, UGA, etc. etc

Alabama: "Define power conference team."

You mean like Purdue or do you mean like Syracuse?
Any word on whether or not they've reached out to Kansas? They could fit them in between Jackson St and South Alabama.

You don't have to like Bama, but they've been good about scheduling at least one strong OOC team per year:
2014: West Virginia 2013: Virginia Tech 2012: Michigan 2011: @ Penn State 2010: Penn State 2009: Virginia Tech 2008: ....darn
