I guess my point is that you are expecting to be treated differently than every one else.


That is absolutely false, as the stats that have been posted in this thread 10 times already have proven.

You can say it's a dumb request, that is fine, but we're absolutely being treated differently now. The request is to be treated the same as everyone else.

Bitching about the heat isnt a good look. 3 weeks ago, you were desperate for college football. Now... not desperate when it is hot and sunny outside.

No offense. But you are spoiled and dont realize it.


No offense, but we truly don't give a shite. We have a request, we made it, and we'll see what comes of it. If nothing does, we'll keep playing at 12 and we'll probably grumble for the 2 weeks it happens and move on.

Can’t really blame Sagan for trying, but somebody is going to have to play in that slot. I am actually surprised LSU has played so few times at 11:00.


LSU should get to play their OOC games at night - that's their tradition.

And Alabama should play whenever TV wants us to most of the time, that's part of the big TV deals.

I think the request is that every couple of years we get one of the night games on SECN that Auburn, Arkansas, Florida, Missouri, LSU, Texas A&M, Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Ole Miss, Mississippi State and others have gotten the lats couple years. Maybe that's an absurd request, but it seems pretty reasonable to me.

This subject has you very upset. Maybe your fairweather fan base could support the team by watching when you do land a 6:30 kickoff. Can’t keep fans in the seats at home or in the stadium huh?

I bitched about the CSU start time. That game would've been a 7:00 kick when I was young. Had it been in November it would be a 12:00 kick. I'd trade that for whatever "exposure" we get on the SEC Network.

You guys still selling full season ticket packages to your 82K seat stadium on your website 2 weeks before the season without any required donation?

Hey look, a 11:30 AM game on the plains. Against a SEC team. Full house.

I’ll take that as a “yes I’m upset”

Thanks!

When I first got on here. He's broke by Bama's alter.

He was completely obsessed with Bama the same way the waste of life is.

They have a 3:30 kick at Williams Brice Saturday. Some of y'all know how ridiculously hot it gets there.

Was UGA treated different in 2013 with our first home night game 11/23 against Kentucky?
Or 2014 with our first night game 11/15 against Auburn?
Or 2016 where we didn't have any home night games all year?


Bama fans think they are the only fans on Earth. I dgas that you dgas.
Your fans melt in more ways than one.

Georgia is the only other team who doesn't play night games against OOC teams - I agree. And you guys are fine with that, and that's cool.

We're asking for some night games. If it doesn't happen, we probably won't do much more than throw our hands in the air in September of the coming years.

It's really not that big a deal. Our AD didn't hold a press conference and complain, we aren't throwing up billboards, we aren't accusing the league office of a conspiracy. Our AD called the league office and said we'd like to get some night games. Pretty tame stuff.

What's the line for "not a big deal"?

Didn't the president and AD write a strongly worded letter?
Isnt that letter publicized through media outlets?

I'm curious where the big deal line gets drawn

That was done by fans.
