That Saturday In October?

P.S. And this is primarily because the idiots who ARE NOT Jay Jacobs decided to pay a damn high school coach $49M dollars and now they're ready to frick tradition or anything else to cover their arse for their utter idiocy.

Calm down Jay. The ripples from your screw ups have almost dissipated.

As much as you want to twist your brain to believe it, the facts are that it was NOT Jay Jacobs who signed a high school football coach to a $49M contract.

The tradition of losing to one or both of our biggest rivals 22 times in the last 30 years? That tradition?

Hired a 5-19 head coach and a high school coach, but wouldn’t sign him to a 49m contract

If we did that, wouldn't the SEC have to have our rotating east opponent come to JHS in consecutive years as well?

If not, then we would end up with an unbalanced SEC schedule, where we had 3 home games one year and 5 the next. Right now the odd years we have UGA at home and the other east team on the road, and vice versa.

LSU in September and UGA in the second half of October would be great.

Seriously. Why did both schools go full retard on this one? The most logical thing to do first would be stagger the Bama and UGA home games. Let's play UGA in Atlanta one year to offset the cycle and get it back to normal.

I feel this is to appease us moving to the east. UGA obviously doesn't want that. Hence bend the knee.

UGA most likely wouldn't agree since they have the WLOCP around Halloween.

We would likely have to play back to back years at UGA to do this. I would rather move it up some, but would also be pleased with getting it back to the old way.

Yea I don't believe we can fix the both away and both at home thing until the current rotation is done. We are required to have a certain number of home and away games each season. UGA played away twice in a row in order to prevent them from having too many home games in one of the seasons.

Didn't realize this. But another issue is if say we lose to LSU and UGA in September, then our season is already toast. I wonder how many times we've played UGA with either 1 or 0 SEC losses, where the season was still alive in November.
