If they move it, it would just be like any other game imo. Everyone seems to be all about themselves, so I am good with 0-8 and having no permanent opponents, so everyone plays everyone the same amount of times over a number of years.

You can't get much more fair than that.

Pat Dye and Auburn broke their long-standing tradition of playing Alabama in Birmingham in 1989, a tradition that had stood since 1904.


While I really enjoyed those 50/50 games in Birmingham (half the crowd goes crazy after every play), you had be high up in the priority scheme to get tickets and back then that meant being someone or knowing someone, not just being willing to pay money. Once they changed to home and home you could get tickets every other year at least.

are you saying that's a good thing? It's not just any other game and shouldn't be treated as one

Again, where is this massive push coming from to be "fair" and equitable regarindg number of time syou play someone? If us playing UF and AU every single year means we get to play missouri and oklahoma less often then who the frick cares. Why are we valuing those games over our traiditonal ones?
