I don't think that people are saying you are wrong or your information isn't good, but what had merit 50 years ago is irrelevant in 2026.
My uncle went to UGA in the 1960s if that gives you an idea on his age. I remember when I was younger he despised night games and even 3:30 was almost too late. Because to him every CFB game ever should be played at 1pm by damn. Because that's what he was used to when he was younger when you might have one game a year on TV if you were lucky. That mindset is/was entirely irrelevant and has been for a long time.
Ditto for old man dooley wanting to think about the poor south GA folk and how hard it'd be for them to get to a game and back at a decent hour. That MAY have been accurate in the early 90s but hasn't been true in ages. Why on earth woudl that matter? Every single CFB program in america has fans that live at the other end of the state. Scheduling your game times so that that small subset of fans is just ridiculous.

I don't blame them they have figured it out.
that's not the takeaway here, teams have scheduled soft in their handful of OOC games for decades that's nothing new.
What is more noteworthy is just how utterly and horrendously awful the Big 10 as a whole. It's why any comparison of the big10 and SEC is entirely moot because once you get past the 3rd or 4th best teams at the top one league has a collection of retarded midgets while the other has teams that could still easily win ~9 games and finish in the top 15.

one of those teams filled to the brim with talent has done more than OSU has over the last 3 years.
well to be fair UGA, Texas, and Bama have all had to slug it out with one another during the season while playing an SEC schedule while OSU gets to play iowa/minnesota/northwestern/purdue and devote 11 weeks of planning on michigan. Last year's completely out of nowhere IU darkhorse notwithstanding.
To put another way, copmletely and totallly switch UGA and OSU's schedule the last 3 years. Does OSU accomplish as much as they have in real life? I think anyone with logical thinking skills knows the answer to that.

3:30 was the number one slot
of course. The CBS contracted started in the mid 90s so there have been plenty of years when UF was still a big draw as the best game of hte week.
But that's not the real issue. The real issue is the lesser games. For pretty much any other SEC team when they play tomato cans they get a bunch of them at night. Ours are almost always at noon. I know Kirby likes that, did Richt? Who knows.
There simply isn't a logical, rational explanation to explain away THAT big of a discrepancy aside from either 1) the league truly trying to stick it to us for some reason that I have no idea, or 2) us simply not caring about it enough to even speak up to address it. That woudl fit in with Richt's personality as he wouldn't want ot be seen as stirring up controversy, and we know that Kirby doesn't mind it one bit so he's not going to fight it etiher.

Georgia last in part bc eastern time AND had so many CBS…including the one guaranteed of UF…which only leaves like 3 night game choices.
While that has merit, it doesn't explain why Florida is double the percentage we are considering all that applies to them too.
Pretty sure thats the dude from fight club

LSU was involved in the most viewed game in regular season history. LSU vs Alabama. Nov. 5, 2011. 20 million avg, peaked at 24.3 million viewers.
I'm gonna go out on a huge limb here and say bama is a bigger national draw than mississippi.
I know Louisiana celebrates drinking culture and all that, but I will truly never comprehend how lax the laws are when it comes to DUIs.
In Georgia a first offense DUI carries a MANDATORY MINIMUM of jail time, hefty fines, suspended license, etc. etc. If you get a second you're especially fricked. Then I see articles on TD about people in LA that are on their 6th, 7th, 8th+ DUI. fricking how?

I thought this trend would slow after UGA
the trend of wearing school colors? You know our colors are red and black right?
quote:
black jerseys against Bama and got absolutely embarrassed in them.
we are 5-1 in the black jerseys. All 6 of those games palyed in them we won when we were the better team and lost when we weren't. The jersey had zero to do with it, we would've lost to bama in 2008 regardless of what we wore.
quote:
One game per year as a fun alternate jersey is fine
well make up your mind! Should the trend slow down because of a game you referenced from 18 years ago or is it ok to do it every year?
the giant glass monstrosity really ruins the overall look

Usual suspects is a fantastic movie but there's a contingent on here that seem to think it sucks simply because of the information we learn at the very end, and how that relates to the rest of the movie.
I remember when this dumb shite started less than 5 years ago the big concern from coaches was that a competitive roster would cost $15M lmao
Yeah this has major potential but man the story and actual jokes were painfully unfunny.
The other main 3 characters were dead on with their speech and mannerisms, pretty impressive. For some reason kramer's face and voice were off though.

Not surprising...
Correct, based on the demographics of the classroom in that video nothing about this is surprising at any level.
Where my kids go to school the demographics are very, very different and they actually focus on reading and letters and shite. If this happened at our school the teacher would be fired before that giant arse even made it through its full downswing

to be fair, they played
we know our schedule has been crap so far. I don't think you'll find a single UGA fan arguing otherwise.
His numbers are pretty outstanding though and would be hard to replicate even in a practice wearing shells. Obviously those numbers will return to earth this weekend but still nice to see for now.

Why is Stockton not on the list of total QBR? Has he not played enough plays?
yes, he's only led about 10 drives total all year I think. Hasn't played in a 3rd quarter yet. Obviously quality of copmetition has been crap, but it's still impressive what he's doing, IMO.
