So why does our shithead prez not set things right and make Auburn play in Athens 2 years in a row? There is, and I'm not a millenial flannel wearing shithead so I don't take this word lightly, LITERALLY no reason why LSU/UF can make that work but our shithead commish can't right a wrong 5 years ago and put the DSOR back on the right track.


The whole reason you had to play at Auburn twice in a row was because they needed the DSOR to be at Auburn in odd years and at UGA in even ones. "Fixing" it by playing at UGA twice in a row would defeat that purpose.

It's happened before.

-LSU played at Ole Miss in 1991 and 1992 to accommodate the new SEC schedules beginning in 1992.
-Ole Miss played at LSU in 2001 and 2002 to accommodate the (again) new SEC schedules beginning in 2002.
-Alabama played at LSU in 1991 and 1992 to accommodate the new schedules with the first expansion in 1992.
-Kentucky played at LSU in 1987 and 1988 to accommodate the (then) new 7-game SEC schedules starting in 1988.
-LSU played at Kentucky in 2001 and 2002 to accommodate the new schedules starting in 2002.
-Mississippi State played at LSU in 1991 and 1992 to accommodate the new schedules after the first expansion in 1992.

That's just a few off the top of my head involving LSU. I'm sure there are plenty more.

Auburn "needed it" or the conference?And why did it "needed to be played in odd years"?Seems most
Aubie fans don't want to get Bama and Ga on the same years home and away.

And once again,it screws us on our odd year home schedules especially with playing the WLOCP.

We play none of our big rivals at home in odd years and
gives season ticket holders a horrible value.
