Leave the SEC in football, just play your 6 games a year against the SEC “rivals,”and sign a lucrative contract as a solo school that still plays elite competition

Without the championship game, who gives a shite about the conference you are in. Get around all the “rules” the SEC puts in place.

Meh, actually I don’t care. Never thought I would say this in my life, but after this year, college football will be on the back burner for Saturdays now. Kinda sad we got here.

UGA doesn’t have a national following. Notre Dame could do it, originally because of the catholic followers and national exposure.

Bama could likely pull it off with Saban because of the Bear but nobody else could.

NDs following isn't what people think it it. Bama LSU outdrew their upset against #1 Miami.

When they went independent it was what said it was. Today it’s very diminished and if they were in the big 10 today they would not be able to successfully recreate what they have now.

Why would those 6 teams risk losing to Georgia? Georgia would be stuck with Georgia Southern, Mercer, etc., etc. Haul arse. Matters not to us!

UGA isn’t even in the top 3 SEC schools this year for viewership. Imagine if they weren’t in the SEC and drawing all the eyeballs from Bama, Texas, Tenn, FL, etc. They’d sink to nothingness and be forced to join a conference. Heck, UTx couldn’t even survive having their own network while in a conference and no one is making that 100mm+ mistake again.

The top 2 draws are clearly Bama and UTx depending on who has the better schedule (Bama #1 last year, UTx going to be #1 this year). With Kiffin at LSU, UGA is essentially fighting for 3rd for the time being and probably won’t win that many times in the near future.

They wouldn’t sink to nothingness. They would get all the TV money themselves, schedule who they wanted and make the playoffs every year.

frick it. Every top 20 team should be thinking about doing it. No point in a conference any more for football.
