2024 Opponents

[Volbrando]

interesting no South Carolina... we need to put the smack down on them this year so they don't hold bragging rights any longer than they should

 

[Voldog1998]

Expect the SEC to expand to 20 teams here in the next few years. The ACC will split apart

 

[DukeDaisySam]

That’s the schedule. 5 games we should win, 2 we can win (Oklahoma, Bama)1 will be very hard to win (UGA)

1-16 does not exactly inspire confidence in beating Bama.

 

[OrangeTsar]

We're getting screwed

And this is not unexpected…..

After we get done with them, they will not WANT to ever play us again

 

[RDU VOL#14]

It will be interesting to see how they structure the schedule. I’m assuming they will keep Florida in late September, Bama as the TSIO and Vandy on Thanksgiving. However, the placement of @ OU could be important. They could put that in early October where the aTm and LSU games have been recently scheduled or maybe in November where Mizzou has been. That would suck traveling to Norman and then to Athens b2b. Maybe put the road game to Arkansas in November ?

and yet we have still beaten the gumps more than any other team in the nation.

Yes, the absurdity will continue.

 

[V0LUNT33R]

I hope to play Florida in November. I’ve always hated playing them early in the season, and they need to come to Rocky Top when it’s cold for a change.

 

[Stownterry]

Toughest schedule in SEC
Just look
Fla. ala Ga okla ark

 

[jeff1vol]

I'm probably alone on this, and I know it will never happen. But this is my fix for schedules:

Give Mizzou, TAMU, South Carolina, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Texas the boot.

Old school SEC, round robin 9 game conference schedule. No divisions, top two teams play in the SEC championship.

EXACTLY ON POINT! You want more $$$$... cut out the number of mouths to feed!!

1-0 does.

 

[OffTackleVol]

I will repeat to what I just told someone else. After all the transfers and players going to the NFL Alabama has 94% 4 and 5 star players on the roster. Good luck beating that year in and year out

Yea, and I wonder how many of those players get that extra star just because Saban recruited them?

You can’t use Fla and Ark to make that argument. Fla was 6-7 (3-5) and Ark was 7-6 (3-5) last year.

 

[901 Orange]

Texas gets tough games at home. Plays at Vandy and Arkansas. Should be easy wins.

They'll roll Vandy and flop at Arkansas

 

[OffTackleVol]

Don't hold your breath they will bounce back. I hope they don't but it's hard not to with that much talent. It took us to have a wr go crazy and the ball bounce our way to win. Don't pretend that all of a sudden we are better than or equal to them

LMAO.........ok.

 

[901 Orange]

So far 2024 is going to be a killer!!!!

Is it really any different from 22'?? We played Fla, Bama, UGA, KY, SC & LSU. TBH 24' is the same top 4 with OU instead of LSU. I think we all know which program is better right now between OU & LSU. No SC kinda makes this schedule easier than 22'.

 

[JohnWardForever]

Florida at Neyland

Welll Yah, it is home & Home with them; Right?

So we drop SC for Okie? That's a screwing.

 

[901 Orange]

You just played @lsu & @ South Carolina. OU wasn't better than those 2 last year. How are you getting screwed?? We could've ended up playing the top 2 teams from the West again ( Bama/LSU), plus @ SC. The 2023 schedule is harder. We're @ Bama, Fla, & KY. Plus we get UGA, A&M, & SC.

Wow , spirited comeback. All I have for you is check Tennessee's record vs SC, and Okie. AND I'll put Money on which team is better in 24. Take a sedative.

Some would like us to move to the Mountain West conference easier path

 

[Rifleman]

September 30th we get our revenge

Cocky might want to rejoin the ACC after that one anyway.

I don't need to check the records because they mean absolutely nothing. If it mattered we wouldn't have given up 63 @ SC, and we wouldn't have beaten Bama or Fla since we lose to them on the regular. We don't know what Brent is gonna do as a HC. He might not even be at OU in 2024 if they look like they did last year.

Lol this is crazy. We literally have a tougher schedule this year, last year, and probably the previous 3-4 years.
