The Giants still owe the Saints a home game from 2005. No one ever brings it up.

With LSU getting 5 home SEC games and SC only 3, to even this out is to switch the aTm games.
A and M and Florida are the only SEC schools to play both. Florida already is playing at SC, so it doesn't work.
An easy balancing solution for 2015, and future schedules, is to switch up the schedules now, giving all schools 4 home games each.


a Bama fan talking about balancing schedules is like a Democrat talking about balancing the budget.

That is a fair compromise and the conference office should seriously look into this.

It won't work though, as LSU will cry foul because they only care about themselves.

An Alabama fan complaining about a scheduling advantage is about the funniest thing I have ever seen on here

TAMU doesn't have an away game as it is and you want to give them more?

Any team.
Any time.
Any place.

USC will probably make more money with the game at LSU since the stadium has more seating.

The community won't.
Home game revenue in small towns is colossal for retailers, restaurants, etc.
I'm not remotely suggesting the game should be played there; but it's a huge loss for a community that's already being brutalized.
I hate it for 'em.

I thought I saw a comment about democrats and balanced budgets. Seemed ironic in our state.

My memory isn't so good, can you tell me when Bama had more home games than every other team?
I'll hang up and listen.

Oh, and keep blowing hard, yall just look more the fool for disagreeing with making all things as equitable as can be.

Oh you mean like all those times that the Mississippi schools would go and play yall in Alabama? So like most of the conference's existence. You played Ole Miss 13 straight times in Alabama from 1912-1933, baw. You played like 7 straight at home against State.

At least know enough about your team's history to not be this stupid.

I hope you realize Ole Miss and State use to also play at Baton Rouge only as well
