"But, but we want everybody to play 10 BCS conference teams!"

Like that's not possible without having the conference hold your hand through the scheduling process.

Stupid arse fans bitching about SEC schedule rotation. I'd rather wait to play west teams and get the opportunity every few years to play a cool OOC game than play 9 SEC teams, GT, and 2 other girl teams

We actually have more history with Clemson than we do with most of the teams in the SEC West, just as an example.

I hope we find a way to keep them on a once a decade rotation at least

I just don't see how it would be responsible financially. With us being tied into the GT series and with UF as a neutral site game, we'll need the home games. Unless we could add a 13th game, but that's not a good idea competitively

It wouldn't even be McGarity's fault. We'd need the home game. UF will be in the same boat

Yeah, it's probably a matter of time before the WLOCP goes away.

I sure hope not. That's one of the special traditions in college football

Expanding it as we speak!

This is Southern's first year as FBS. We can't go to a bowl game this year but we are eligible for the Conference Championship!

Luckily our offense isn't as horrible as UF's and hopefully neither UF nor UGA has the string of injuries they had recently

SEE, MY FIRST COMMENT WAS RIGHT!

I always liked the GSU/UGA game. All my Southern friends got to come up to Athens and it was always a wild weekend.

What do you think attendance will be like? My friends say they only really sell out games vs rivals like App State and so now. Sure, that may come off as a flame but I am really asking if you think that this move to FBS will change GSU's fan base? I figured it worked better for them to be a great FCS team as opposed to a mid major FBS team.

I am all for 9 game SEC schedule!

As a season ticket some of the past few years have been brutal home schedules- just a whole bunch of completely uninteresting games.

I have no problem playing GT and then a couple of midrange patsies.

When the playoff starts and if it expands, there will be plenty of interesting OOC match ups available. Also, I believe that with the playoff most of the conference-bowl matchups are going to be much more fluid so there should be more variety in them as well.
