I also forgot the home and home Tenn did with ND.  Does Florida schedule some shit for OOC?  God yes, and they should be embarrassed.  But don&#039;t tell me all SEC schools schedule crap games, because that is simply bull shit, and anyone can see that from the list that I posted.  Funny thing is, the moment FSU gets back to being as good as they should be, I wonder if you will slam Florida for that?</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>arguing SOS as an SEC fan is quite silly. it is the best conference but wow, you really cannot defend their out of conference.
