Big OOC games only help with recruiting when you win. If you lose, it helps recruiting for the other schools.

There's not a single recruit whose commitment hinges on whether we play Furman or Virginia.

On signing day, Reggie McMaynerberry, 5 Star defensive tackle, chooses Alabama over Georgia because "I don't know, like, Georgia played Furman and beat day arse, but, like, you know, if day played Virginia, sheeat, you know, like, I don't know, I'm going to Alabama instead of Georgia, cuz like, you know, sheeut, like, know what I mean?"

I am on the fence of going to one of these putrid home games this year. The schedule suck and scheduling ND doesn't make it much better. The marquee matchups are what make college football great. We should 1 really good OOC team on our schedule, as well as a decent one. Uk and Vandy don't count as good matchups, even if Vandy did beat us last year. Im sure everyone is tired of watching noon games.

Too many people focus on the worst games on the schedule. The country and media should always focus on the top 4 or 5 games that a team matches against every season.

I don't mind cupcakes because it actually means more home games (Virginia would be a home and home... the cupcakes get paid to not have a return visit).

I understand that the home slate sometimes sucks. But that is what will happen sometimes scheduling ND and GT (and UF in Jax)

Don't we open with Virginia in Atlanta at some point in the next few years? That seems like a good middle ground between WG and others who think we need to play someone like Ohio State every year.


2020

Hopefully they're a good bit better by then, for their sake if anything. Even if they aren't, a blowout win in Atlanta to open the season wouldn't be the worst thing.

I've always considered UVA and Maryland colossal underachievers. So much local talent in the area, and so little success. I know UVA has academic restrictions, but so does Stanford.
