Because you play nothing but non-conference cupcakes at home in Sept since 2014. Nobody is interested in watching you play the likes of Kent State and Louisiana-[Insert Obscure Louisiana City].
Yep, youre right.. they never played Clemson, usc, Georgia last year... we all know there is no advantage to the home teams either. gosh I cannot remember a time last year when they played any ranked team. Playing the tougher games away from home is so cupcake. #RollTide
