The 140 rule was a sticky issue (eventually we went 85 so Dodd was undercutting it) but the bigger issue is GT was was ready to go and not play in a revenue sharing scenario. The sec, or any other conference, did not bank like it does today and many schools, penn st, notre dame, Florida st. South Carolina, Miami, thought it best to go solo. As mentioned, he also had a problem having to go ms and Louisiana and thought it best for those schools to just play them in Atlanta.
As far as playing GT again. I’m not against it. Bama played tech every year up thru 84 and auburn thru 87. UGA goes without saying. I personally loved the series. Would have zero problems with them back in.

well, to be fair, FSU was a women's college until 1947. They didn't start playing football until 1948. (they did play from 1902-1905 before it became an all women's college)
