    Theoretically I agree with you. But this is happening when ESPN is laying off people and I think I read they are in the middle of negotiating some other sports right now as well. Maybe they'll be more receptive in a year.
  2. gatormarc
    The deal was announced December 2020, so before OU and UTx.
  3. gatormarc
    There probably is and the negotiation is ongoing. May not be a bad idea to separate the OU/UT negotiation with the 9 game negotiation.

    It really looks like we had 5 votes for 3-6-6; 5 votes for 1-7-7; and 4 schools that wouldn't commit to either yet, hence the 1-year bridge schedule being voted in. I'm just glad they didn't lock in 1-7-7 for 8 seasons.

    Correction

    There will also be a push for some of the rotation games that still haven't happened because of the ridiculously long 12 year rotation that the SEC adopted when Mizzou and A&M joined. Like UGA @ A&M or Ole Miss @ Florida

    Lots of words, so I'm not sure if you all want it pasted in full here. Trying to break down everyone's preference and why it is. https://flyoversports.substack.com/p/making-sense-of-sec-scheduling-preferences

    He must not know about the Med School.

    Kirby just smelled his finger.

    Because the SEC has 2 conflicting wants/needs. 1) Everyone wants to play everyone else more often. No one likes the current rotation which takes 12 seasons to complete a home-home with everyone. 2) There are a lot of existing rivalries in the conference. Most of the schools want multiple protected games. 3-6-6 is the format that handles both needs the best.

    Corndog explained... internet trash talk that somehow became a living meme. https://bamahammer.com/2011/10/31/the-corndog-story-lsus-nickname-explained/

    Looks like the piggies have been smart about it...

    "becomes the 1st 16-team Power 2 conference to..." There had to be a better way to tell this joke.
  14. gatormarc
    Except UGA. They still haven't made it to College Station and 2024 was supposed to be when it happened.
  15. gatormarc
    They decided to not decide on 3-6-6 or 1-7-7. This is a one year bridge schedule with 8 games. It sounds like they will have at least 2 rivalries protected.
  16. gatormarc
    Yup.

    Many people aren't aware of the insulating properties of loose tortillas. It will save you dozens. Don't ask yourself if you can afford to have it, rather can your family afford not to have it?

    I didn't think BYU had a Med School

    Sucks, but after letting CBS short change the league for a decade, I'm more than willing to wait a year or two for ESPN to come up with the cash, as long as it's a bridge schedule that doesn't kill any of the secondary rivalries the way a 1-7-7 will.

    Like what are we thinking here? Big 12 branded Timeshares?
  22. gatormarc
    Maybe Kirk is adding the second half as speculation since that isn't part of the quote?

    Clearly, Florida and Georgia Tech have a Gentleman's Agreement.

    OP's dates are wrong. There are two lawsuits, for the 2021 and 2021 Holiday Bowls 2021 - UCLA pulls out at the last second, costing the bowl millions 2022 - Holiday Bowl goes as planned but they decide not to pay out the Pac-12 to cover most of previous year's cancellation, and calls it a wash despite still losing money. Pac-12 is suing for the 2022 payment, so Holiday Bowl is now suing for the 2021 debt.

    That would make sense. They have more slots to fill just this year.
