    Short article so I posted the whole thing. Interesting that they have LSU winning more games than any other team in the west. Also, the SEC has 12 of the top 20 toughest schedules.

    Does that mean Alabama has the toughest schedule in the country? What a joke.

    It says we win 0.4 games more than the Gumps. Be happy.

    Bout damn time. But if LSU had scheduled a top 25 team in lieu of Syracuse you could make the case for LSU. It's the Wisconsin game and actually playing a valid team from the East this year that makes their schedule anything but laughable.

    Winning more isn't as important as winning the right ones.

    This is true. That's why I didn't say it had us winning the West. Just that we would win the most games. Did you notice that we win more than everybody except Ga?

    I say we win them all. I cant see one I am willing to lose.

    12-0 regular and 3 more for it all.

    I am going to be using the force this year Tiger Fans.

    It is strong this year and there is much disturbance in the bama force field.

    The dark side is on the run and their midget leader is tigerbait....
