From his presser today

quote:

“What I say next is: Through the years, I’ve been an advocate of playing all Power 5 conference schools, playing more conference games. I know it’s a more difficult schedule but I think it would be better for the fans, it would be better for … in the playoffs right now, if you want to talk about that, that system is if you lose a game, you’re on thin ice. If you lose two, it’s almost impossible. I think if we played more like the NFL — the New York Giants won the Super Bowl a few years ago and lost six games. You play quality opponents every week and probably end up losing more games, but I think at the end of the day it would be more competitive for everyone involved relative to the fans and players and the selection committee and all the things that go into it.”

Well, I'm an Alabama graduate, so....

Should I post about LSU and be obsessed? Let me know.

We need more home and homes

I am firmly still against neutral site games

He's right as rain. Until scheduling evolves, people are going to keep playing far too many Little Sisters of the Poor, and I can't blame them -- why deliberately put yourself at a disadvantage when nobody else is?

I agree 100%. It would erase a lot of gray areas if everyone is playing close to some semblance of competition. BSU will no longer be a "fly in the ointment". Game over for the lower tier schools.

Yes please. I do like the FSU matchup though in the new Atlanta stadium.

Would much rather play Louisville in their stadium though.

But you don't play quality opponents in the NFL every week. Half the league is way better than the other half. And you shouldn't be able to win a championship at 9-7, like the Giants team he's referencing. Makes the regular season worthless.

You're crying about your insecurity of not graduating from the University of Alabama.

I was accepted into Alabama, thats more than 50% of this board could say

There is a lot of teams that have played really great home and homes

I will go back to our somewhat equal Ohio State.

In the last 10 or so years they have played Texas, USC, Oklahoma home and home and have Oregon, TCU, Notre Dame home and homes coming up in next couple years

Where are we on this?

These are places I want to get to go to on the road at the actual stadum

I think the SEC is dropping the ball here

It's okay that you can't face the truth, and that you had to convince yourself that you graduated from the U of A when in all actuality you didn't.

I sure as hell know sunseeker didn't goto Alabama

You notice how he doesn't mention three loss teams?

He's trembling in his little booties at the thought of an LSU rematch.
