re: Athens Gameday?

I'd be okay if Gameday ended up in Tuscaloosa. If Gameday ends up in Athens, odds are, we're on CBS which means 3:30, and I want that game at night. We also have a terrible record when Gameday is present. It's bad, like 3-10 bad or something like that. UGA, Bama, and State should win all games until Nov 15th. Auburn is the wildcard. If they win their games, it's a toss-up.

What we have going "for" us (if you want Gameday there) is the storylines of last year's Miracle at Jordan Hare and what I'm already assuming is a Sanford blackout if we win the next 2 games.

Bama/State have a top-5 matchup, which we may not have, and a critical West matchup. The AU-UGA matchup is a make-or-break for AU but not necessarily us. ESPN won't care about the prospect of being @ the Egg Bowl a couple weeks later. They'll happily go to Tuscaloosa and still go to Oxford.
