UGA has been on our schedule for this year for a long time. Also, typically UT is a tough "rivalry" game for Bama so it really doesn't matter where they are ranked in conference or otherwise. Also, what you said was
"bamuh and ugaly have always gotten preferential treatment while UF gets the shaft.
Btw, surprised nicky didn't lobby for OOC games because bamuh could've just named uab for their OOC as a tune up before the playoffs."
I can't speak regarding UGA but I honestly don't see how Bama is getting any preferential treatments. Maybe you can explain that. Also, Coach Saban has always lobbied for tougher opponents. Remember, he was one of, if not the first to express that he would like for an expansion of conference games each season. He doesn't like the gimmee games because there is to great a risk of a let-down of his players performance.
