re: This will be the last DSOR in November for a long time...

We have our spineless leader to thank for that. My only slight glimmer of hope is that after the current round of SEC schedules expires after the 2024 season, the SEC will give us a break (lol) and set things right.

This topic has been discussed a bunch so I'll try not to go on a rant here but the biggest head scratcher to me (among several of them) is how this fixed the problem AU even had? Their biggest complaint was having UGA and UA on the same rotation so that every other year both would be on the road. Simply moving our game up in the schedule doesn't even fix that problem.

But I agree with OP, it's truly a shame. Since the 1800s this game has been played in roughly mid/late November every year with the only excpetions being the 1st matchup (February) and the SECCG in December. In addition to this being utterly shitty, we also get the added bonus of freezing our friggin arse off in knoxville in November every other year now. Joy.
