  1. Good Hire!
  2. Everything is subjective until further notice.
  3. Auburn, Arky, Aggy and Tennessee have this without long stretches on the road.
  4. Yep. Having the Florida game in Atlanta this fall is essentially a home game for them. Just eyeballing the conference schedule in one of the above post, it appears they are one of five teams that also doesn’t have consecutive road games, but get consecutive home games. Pushing one of cupcakes later in the season helps some schools it appears.
  5. On the reveal show last night, they discussed how the league office used AI with input from the individual AD’s from each school. I’m trying to figure out what CDC might have told the league office that would cause AI to spit out essentially what is the same thing we did this year with the long stretches on the road and not having our off week later in the season. Here’s hoping in 2027 that kind of gets evened out and we get to have the conference opener at home which for the second year we are on the road. IF we can’t have our off week later in the season, perhaps moving one our cupcakes would accomplish the same thing. aggy kind of has a good deal with having one of their cupcakes in the middle of the season and right after a road trip to Mizzou and before their road trip to Bama.
  6. Should be as no other team has a game that would get the attention for a that night slot on ABC. Michigan/OU although will be less attractive now thanks to the chaos at Michigan will probably be on CBS or Fox since it’s a home game for Michigan. We should probably have the Gameday crew on campus too.
  7. Before some of the coaching changes when the opponents and locations were reveled a few months ago, it was the chatter it might be harder. Everyone expected LSU and Florida to be much better and we know how that turned out. Now we face those two with new coaches along with Ole Miss and Arky. Tennessee is going to be on the clock next fall as far as their coaching situation. Mizzou and MSU… Who knows? We really don’t have conference game that would be an even swap for UGA. LSU might have been this game if they had lived up to expectations this season, but we will have plenty of time to see if Lane can flip the switch in Baton Rouge. I am not so sure, but playing in that environment enough is comparable to UGA, so hopefully they do end up underperforming as the season progresses. Our non conference schedule is better than this years. Texas State and UTSA will be better matchups than San Jose, Sam Houston, and UTEP. Upside we play Ohio State after shaking some of the rust off against Texas State which we didn’t have the benefit of this season. Hopefully the first three home games are night games too.
  8. That’s a good point. Going to Baton Rouge is not a very long road trip unlike Gainesville, Starkville and Lexington in three out of four weeks in a row.
  9. This is true to some extent. UTSA and Texas State are not The Citadel or Campbell.
  10. Florida playing Campbell. I think they were D2 not too long ago?
  11. LSU playing McNeese…. We need to drop Norte Dame in couple of years and play their conference mate UTRGV! Ole Miss playing Wofford…. LOL!
  12. The fact any team gets to keep that November cupcake when a few of us busting our balls is a fricken crime. SEC used this for years to keep their poll spots secure for the final weekend. If they do it for two or three, they need to allow it for all of us again
  13. We got fucked as far as November compared to others with road games and two of them being consecutive. CDC needs to speak up about this in 2027 along with opening conference at home. Second year in a row opening conference on the road.
  14. Thank God! Byes are hazardous for our health.
  15. Fricken SEC just sucks ass at scheduling. How about two games at home and two games on the road per month and not consecutively?
  16. November @Mizzou @LSU Arky @Aggy
  17. Yea I know this. Looks like the SEC made it up to us for keeping us on the road a lot this October
  18. I hate the way they do this on the SEC Network
  19. Do you all care? Texas State Ohio State UTSA @Tennessee
  20. It’s possible…. aggy used the Covid card to avoid playing Wake Forrest a few years ago, but the real reason they lost a boatload of scholarship players to the portal and injuries and were in a spiral the last few weeks of the their season. We should do what UGA did to Florida State a few years ago in their bowl game. No mercy.
