Per reports being tweeted out...

Figured that was coming, those 2 carpetbaggers moving into the SEC sooner rather than later?

Replaced with Ball State

Yea, I think it has more to do with the other game vs Ok was in 2031 when they will already be a member. Also, needed to do it early enough for us to find an opponent for early next season. Not a lot of options

they'll definitely be here before 2031 which is when they were scheduled to return to Athens (I think it was '31?). It's the right call and makes logical sense. We're going to be playing them within the next handful of years anyway in-conference so not really a huge deal I don't think

I would have preferred a neutral site vs Oklahoma over Ball St.

But oh well.

When the new teams come we wont' be tethered to our 6 division foes plus 1 rotating from the west. We'll have 3 permanents and 6 rotating so we'll see a LOT more teams from the other side than we have previously.

I don't mind ball st primarily because we'll be breaking in a brand new QB with not much real game experience so it'll be nice to let them get their feet wet.

As long as they don't cancel the FSU series I don't care.

I don't see why they would. That'll be a fun one I've alwys been interested in seeing a game down there.

Georgia will probably now have 7 home games next year instead of 6. That’s a good thing that came out of this.

It was all about the return game, same with Tenn/Ok.

Sankey looking out for Ga and Tenn.

I hate that these H&H games with out-of-conference power 5 teams are so hard to schedule.

I saw where Ok rescheduled with SMU. Don't know if Tenn has anyone lined up at this time.
