If you view it simplistically it may be shocking uga would entertain this option, but neither school is afraid to play the other school
So why does Auburn CONTINUALLY bitch about playing in November?And please stop with the "November ticket sales in even years" bullshite.
Are you REALLY trying to tell me your revenue takes a noticeable hit in even years? BS

years...name a single November east game that has created that type of ROI for the networks.
In the end this decision will be an SEC decision driven by TV dollars and uga/Auburn will only offer input
Good Lord,you REALLY think TV contracts are negotiated over this game or a 2 game stretch in November.
The TV dollars and SEC TV contracts won't change because of this switch.Do you not realize this?

Stop thinking about it so linear. New contracts will be based on the data achieved in the coming years. uga is ok with this because they are forward thinking and see the potential of keeping Auburn on the schedule and creating a potential November SEC East battle most seasons. It's good for the bottom line in the conference and it will be good for uga when it comes to exposure going forward.
Auburn will fix a schedule issue that no other member institution has to put up with and it has nothing to do with wins and loses. It is absolutely about the bottom line and even season Novembers being ridiculously finically imbalanced compared to member institutions.
