I disagree for the reasons already noted in my response to Coach34. And in regards to your note about the strength of the SEC West, 2 of those 3 teams (Arkansas and LSU) beat us in 2007 as well and none of the 4 games played in either year were close. The only team that was worse in 2007 than 2011 that we beat in 07 was Alabama. Furthermore, our nonconference schedule was much tougher in 2007 with the road trip to a ranked WVU team, so the schedule comparison ends up being a wash overall.
