To open the new Falcons stadium according to VolQuest today.

Alabama will face Florida State in the Saturday game and Tennessee will play Georgia Tech in the Monday night game. Now news that they are in talks with another unnamed SEC school about playing on Thursday night to open things up.

Could be a fun little weekend for football fans.

Won't be us. We just scheduled Cal for 2017. Would love to go back to the Kickoff game though.

Ole Miss vs UCLA is what I want to see.

If tech has their way they'll get this game moved to the thursday slot. They love some Thursday night games down on the flats.

Doesn't Ga have a deal with Notre Dame? If so, move them in one of the slots. Excited if all this can get pulled off. Nothing like spanking the Criminoles to start the season.

Yeah.

Nashville is looking for a 2016 kickoff game too apparently.

Not sure who they're going to get as Tennessee has Va Tech at Bristol Motor Speedway, Bama has USC at Jerry World, UGA has UNC in the GA Dome, Auburn has Clemson and LSU has Wisconsin at Lambeau.

Yes in 17 and 19. We play on 9/9/17. We definitely aren't playing in the CFA in 17.

frick that. If it was another UNC-like team ok sure, but we damn sure aren't giving up a trip to south bend, and I highly doubt ND wants to give up a trip to Athens either.

Hate to break it to you boys but South Bend and the surrounding area is a freaking dump. Do your partying back in Chicago. TIFWIW.

1) I'm not going all the way up there only to stay 100 miles away from my destination

2) I'm there for the experience and the football, going to chicago to party doesnt' interest me in the tiniest bit.

Just a fair warning, South Bend is an absolute shite hole. The campus and stadium at cool/historic but geez that town blows cock.


Already been mentioned it should be a fun trip. ND girls do not put out though.

I've been to some preeeeeeeeeeeettty shitty places throughout the SEC and enjoyed myself plenty, I'll be alright. And it's not like I'll be cruising around scenic downtown South Bend, aside from sleeping I"ll probably spend most of my time on the actual campus.

The campus is awesome. Make sure to check out the Grotto and the Basilica of the Sacred Heart. South Bend is worse then any SEC town. I doubt that will hinder your tour de force though

Have you seen the ND girls? There is a reason why they don't put out.... can't find many takers. Heck... even golden child Teo had to have a fake one. Better luck with the St. Mary coeds.
