You are literally pissing away an inventory of 8 games for television/home stadiums (potentially).


Casualties of the nine-game schedule aren't going to be Alabama vs. Notre Dame or Texas vs. Ohio State, it'll be Vanderbilt vs. Tennessee Martin and South Carolina vs. Furman. I can assure you, the ninth conference game is worth a lot more than the annual cupcake and the only reasons said cupcake involve winning percentage and bowl eligibility.


This is what blows my mind.
No one trusts their own AD, so they would rather give scheduling control to the conference and then bitch about how the conference schedules games (stacking tough games back to back, when the opposing team has a bye week before their game, etc..).

UGA would be playing Vanderbilt, Ole Miss, Miss St, South Carolina, etc.. instead of Clemson and Notre Dame because we have Georgia Tech.
If you dont want crappy games, dont schedule them.
UGA regularly schedules 2 P5 opponents in the same season.
UGA has scheduled 3 P5 opponents in the same season in the past and has that same type of scheduling on the books 3 more times in the next decade.

Hold your ADs accountable. Otherwise they will still schedule 2 crap games OOC and on top of your 1 P5 (which you should be doing already).
It blows my mind that teams would rather a mindless rotation of ho hums instead of actually going out and facing big name programs.

Honestly y'all should stop playing Tech, there's nothing to gain but everything to lose. They're a G5 at this point.
