Look, if it makes you guys feel better to buy in to this stadium configuration bullshit, then be my guest. Whatever helps you sleep at night.

But open your eyes!  It’s a big fat fucking lie. Maybe, just maybe, we can look beyond the surface to see what’s really going on here: Chick-fil-A is the sponsor and they’re running the Peach Bowl with their hard core anti-beef agenda. The Deep Poultry State will go to any length to protect its own interests. Starting, obviously, with banning Bevo from the sidelines.

You know it and I know it: Big Chicken hates everything that Bevo represents. Namely, hamburgers. And steaks. And brisket. And a bunch of other delicious shit that isn’t shitty ass chicken. They live in fear of what having Bevo on the sideline would do to them. Maybe we could appease them if we hung one of those denigrating “Eat Mor Chikin” signs around his neck? Maybe then they would be more inclined to put on their big girl panties and take out a seat or two so we can fit our beloved cow into the stadium? You think that ad campaign was an accident? Fuck. All. That. 

If they outlaw mascots only outlaws will have mascots.

He can’t be tackled at his ankles, but he also can’t be tackled high.

He’s not black, but he’s also not white. 
 

He’s elite, yet he is also not very good and hasn’t played anyone. 

He wouldn’t play here, but could also get 25-50% of RB touches. 

He’s slow behind the LOS but fast after it. 
 

He has 9 career fumbles, but has also never fumbled.

Jerryworld should be the site for the National Championship game, with it being more of a central location to the rest of the 48 states.  
I wonder why that isn't already a thing.
 
I asked the AI about it.
------------
Jerryworld, or as it's officially known, AT&T Stadium, is a spectacular venue, but it's not used for the College Football Playoff (CFP) National Championship game for a few key reasons:
*   **Bidding Process and Rotation:** The CFP National Championship game location is determined through a competitive bidding process, much like the Super Bowl. Cities and stadiums across the country put together proposals to host the game. The CFP then selects a site based on a variety of factors, including stadium quality, infrastructure, hotel availability, transportation, and the overall experience offered to fans and teams. The goal is to rotate the game among different regions and high-quality venues.
*   **Desire for Neutrality and Variety:** The CFP aims to provide a neutral site for the championship game, similar to the Super Bowl. This ensures that neither team has a home-field advantage. Rotating the game among different cities and regions also allows more fans across the country to potentially experience the event. AT&T Stadium would give the Dallas-Fort Worth area more championship games than the CFP would like in its rotation, as the stadium frequently hosts the Cotton Bowl.
*   **Other Major Events at AT&T Stadium:** Jerryworld already hosts numerous major events throughout the year, including Dallas Cowboys games, the Cotton Bowl Classic, major concerts, and other sporting events. Adding the CFP National Championship to its schedule could pose logistical challenges.
*   **Financial Considerations:** The financial arrangements and revenue-sharing agreements between the CFP and the host city/stadium are crucial factors in the selection process. The CFP likely seeks the most favorable financial terms that benefit the organization and its member conferences.
*   **Indoor vs. Outdoor Preference:** While not a hard and fast rule, the CFP has shown a slight preference toward playing the game outdoors if weather conditions permit. This is a nod to the traditional aspects of football, although the practical benefits of indoor stadiums are undeniable.
*   **Date Availability:** AT&T Stadium would have to have the date of the championship game available. Due to the large amount of events held there each year, scheduling is quite complex.
**In summary,** while AT&T Stadium is certainly capable of hosting the CFP National Championship, the game's rotation policy, desire for geographic diversity, bidding process, and logistical considerations mean that it's just one of many potential venues considered each year. It did, however, host the first CFP National Championship in 2015.
 

Fuck Jerry World. Fuck Jerrah.

[Jkwellborn 7072]

Fuckit, we can't bring ours, then ban Uga too (because we'll play Georgia again).
That, or let's just bring a slightly smaller Bevo XVI.

Texas won’t play Georgia again this season though.

Mercedes-Benz Stadium opened in 2017. Nobody knew shit about Texas joining the SEC until 2021. Their policy is their policy. No Bevo sucks, but there’s no malice behind it.

That said, aggy is already writing fan fiction about how the sips are demanding the SEC Championship Game be moved to Jerryworld. “Open your eyes lame street media! The sips already got SEC Media Days moved!”

There is a retard in this thread writing fan fiction about Bellmont getting involved.

if we get to the final this topic is going to become a PR problem for everyone involved

it would be best to get to the truth now inre: who is actually the bitchass

our cow can sit in one of the tunnels, if beLLmont wants him to

if beLLmont will come out and say "we are okay with our mascot being excluded from any stadium we don't control" then the topic is closed

if beLLmont does not counter this "announcement" re: the mercedes-benz bevo embargo, then prima-facie we are not dtf with this decision, or we are rolling over for ______ who?

it's difficult to "move on" from an open question

i want to know who is making this decision

it needs to be documented in writing while the topic is current - we learned this with aggy and their "standing offer" in 2007

Vegas is way better than Arlington, TX or Atlanta, GA. Neither of which are college football hotspots by any means. Better stadium, better city, better food, more hotel rooms, legal betting, and superior titters.

it really shouldn't be a problem.  they can take Bevo for this game.  Walk him out with the team and get his intro. take him to an area up the tunnels where there is probably a good spot.  ESPN can have some camera shots of him.

we'll be back in 20 days so a good trial run.

Round 2 should be a home game for the highest seed again. You have to incentivize those conference championships as much as you can, especially after all the injuries that occurred in CCGs this year. I’ve spent many years in Tempe/Scottsdale, that giant community would rally around a successful football program. I’d probably get to fucked up and miss the game. Imagine Penn State having to play a post season game in Idaho on blue turf, how wacky that would be. 

[billfromlaketravis 11881]

They need to fix the seeding and the game locations. Georgia should be playing in Atlanta. We should playing in Arlington. Rose Bowl got it right. 
 

But yes, Georgia and Oregon admins are probably deeply pissed they didn’t get a home playoff game. That’ll probably be the first fix.

The only issue I can see is most students have gone home and not coming back. You will lose a lot of the atmosphere of a home game.
