How is 1-7 not a full rotational? You see everyone every other year.
Unless you’re saying no permanent opponent ever
I think some people read it as 7-1, just adding to divisions instead of 1-7 without divisions.

Fly delta.
Maybe you can watch us play vandy since that is the type of crap encouraged by bad schedule design.

This isnt rocket science.
The only cross division game that really mattered was the SECCG.
In fairness, LSU has played UGA in the SECCG 4 times. It's the second most played matchup in the SECCG behind Alabama/Florida. It's not like UGA plays in that game every year either, so LSU can't just win the West if they want to play UGA more. Both teams need to win the division the same season for that happen. Not to mention we have college footballs most dominant dynasty of all-time in ours. Not exactly an easy assignment

when youre right you are fricking right

If it happens it happens. It will suck, but it is what it is. I hope our people fight for what we want and then if we lose find another way to make it happen - probably out of league. If that doesn't work then the every other year game will just be that much more important.

How often would you have won your division in the SEC West?
Hint: Much less.
So? Thats the point though isnt it?
To win? If it was less, it would be less.

2002 would be the only SEC Championship for Georgia since the divisions were created if you played in the SEC West.
The only one. LSU while playing in a tougher division has greatly out performed Georgia in that time. The only team Georgia plays on a regular basis that is tough is Florida, and LSU plays them every year too. So pretending like they need to win something is really laughable
As I posted multiple times, the teams you keep naming you not wanting to see Alabama play because it's too easy is your actual schedule now. Not just 1 or 2 of them, but all of them every year.
One of the best things about getting rid of divisions and rotating all these teams is that for the first time in SEC history, Georgia will actually have to play the tough teams on a regular basis.

Is it? Because if AU becomes an OOC game, then UGA’s OOC scheduling is fricked.

Why do 14 teams in the SEC care about Bama vs Missouri more than Bama cares about Bama vs Tennessee?
I never said I care more about Bama vs Missouri over Bama vs Tennessee. The point is that Bama vs. Tennessee is not big enough of a rivalry across the SEC to dictate a certain schedule model over another. For South Carolina as an example we would have 9 SEC games every year as well as Clemson on top of that. Is that reason enough so that Bama and Tennessee can play each other? No it's not.

I agree with everything you said.
But i dont cry about playing in baton rouge more often. I dont care about you like i care about Auburn, Florida, Tech, and Clemson. I rarely think of you. If we meet in the SECCG, all the better. But the tigers are not on my mind.

Sounds like you need to get your arse back to the ACC.

But that is exactly what we are discussing.
One model preseves rivalries.
The other model pushes mediocre crap half of the time.
Keep the conference scheduling to 8 + 1 (conference championship game).
Preserve the 3 permanent opponents.
UGA will visit Arkansas when we visit Arkansas. I dont need it rushed through at the expense of games that really matter.

and thats the exact thing that we would be putting south carolina through if we go to a 9 game schedule

quote:AU played Vandy 3 times from 1952 to 1985 (34 seasons), and one of those was a bowl game.
-- Alabama didn't play Kentucky from 1948-1971, only played them 4 times from 1948-1987. 4 times in 40 years while in the same 10-12 team league.
The two teams then played 6 times over the next 8 years, but only 8 more times in the next 28.
Everyone here gives AU grief over it's record vs Vandy, not realizing that we played them 23 times back when they were the winningest team in the SEC (17 more victories than 2nd place Bama from 1890-1955) but have played them only 16 times in the 66 years since, when they had the fewest wins of any P5 team.
That said, not playing UGa every year would be just another nail in the CFB coffin for me. I don't care how much they've owned us in recent years (well, I do care, but...
) Do away with divisions and go 3-6. Insist that the schools without a permanent OOC P5 opponent find one right away so that the four schools that do have them don't suffer any scheduling disadvantage.

With 16 teams and the potential increase in $$$ it is going to go to 9 games at some point soon, so might as well get used to it and go with the 3-6 model now than a couple years down the road.

We’d be putting ourselves through it to, but we’d also have to add AU out of conference to preserve that game. Then, we also have more history with Clemson than we will ever have with most of the SEC West, but that would be relegated to maybe once in a decade or two.
