🏈 G5 teams on Alabama's 12 game regular schedule. What are the pro's and con's for continuing to schedule G5 teams?

[We All Bleed Crimson]

I'm OK with So Miss, but Mercer.... If we are going to help these little schools, then lets help the In-state schools. The small schools rely on these games against P5 opponents to fund their athletic program. I understand that, but we don't need to fund the small schools (Mercer, Ga State, etc) from other states, let the Georgia and Georgia Tech do that for the small Georgia schools. With New Mexico State, because they are from the west, maybe I'm OK to play someone like that once every few seasons, but I'd rather see a Memphis or Cincy kind of team (if we are playing a non-P5).
Oh well, I have rambled enough about it.
I just want the Tide to crush whomever lines up on the other side. ROLL TIDE!!!

Look at 2022.... @home is 3 G5,... vandy and msu and AU...all probably un ranked teams....plus Tx AnM....
LSU, MS, Arkansas, TN away.... plus Texas ( all maybe i know)

You've just proven my point.

Based on this seasons rankings out of the teams you've mentioned (including Texas) Bama's looking at six ranked opponents they'd be playing. So, let's add two more SEC games?

Conference strength.

Every team in conference isnt a powerhouse team...

The weakest of one may be stronger than the strongest of another: in this case, definitely stronger than the bottom halves of other conferences.

Really. Come on!!!
I count 4 possible teams ranked
AnM. Ms. Lsu. Texas. And non ranked very high except AnM

and the weakest better than best in other conference!!! Really.
Vandy better than??????? Msu. Tennessee
Arkansas???????? Better than best of other conference unless u look at g5 conference. And even then!!!!!

whatever though
