@ BamaTime - That's why he said "road" games, not Neutral site games....When was Bama's last true road Non-conference game?

Didn't Urban invent the Internet as well??

Too bad he didn't show that kind of passion at UGA....

Denzel & Robert are both Georgia boys. Mark Richt recruited Denzel to UGA and then when his grades weren't going to get him in, CMR still wrote letters of recommendation for Denzel to get him into Ole Miss. Denzel continued to trash CMR and UGA....glad neither of them ended up at UGA.

Where is all that cash CSU made Florida pay up for Jim McElwain???

Add Trevor Lawrence to that list.....

Kirby is Old School and wants to promote the "UGA brand". I don't see him blowing the HUGE National TV/ESPN College Gameday spotlight opportunity to showcase the Red&Black. Keep it simple...Red Helmets/Red jerseys/Silver britches....I was at that 2008 Black Out Bama game.....no sir........

Terrell Davis-Super Bowl MVP/Pro Football Hall of Fame.....Herschel Walker RB-Heisman Trophy Winner 1980/SEC #1 Yards, Frank Sinkwich RB-Heisman Trophy Winner 1942, Charlie Trippi RB-Maxwell Award Winner College Football MVP 1946.....and then TG3, Michel, Chubb SEC #2 Yards, Musa Smith, Knowshon Moreno etc etc

Trudawg - I think I speak for Dawg fans every where when I say please stop posting as a UGA fan. You are neither truthful nor a Dawg fan, so please just go away.

Lewis Grizzard is rolling in his grave right now....Keith Butler?? Whomever Adam Spencer is, he should be BANNED FOR LIFE from writing for SDS ever again....especially UGA articles. Kevin Butler is one of the greatest players to wear the Red & Black at UGA.

Eight wins OR Champions of Life???

@JC3_NG: You've always been able to get a beer at the SECCG. Loge and Club Levels....

So either UGA or Bama is going to lose the SEC Championship and STILL go to the CFP?? They'd both have to be undefeated going into that game and even a close loss keeps one of them out perhaps. The LSU loss is what kept UGA out of the CFP last year IMO even with the SECCG blunder.

Les Miles replaced Saban at LSU...why not Bama?

If Florida never won another football game ever I'd be ok with that, but in the interest of fairness, McElwain did the right thing. From what I understand, PED's were not the only issue with Grier, plus the rumors his Father demanded he be the starting Qb when he came back from suspension, puts Coach Mac in a tough spot. Cam Newton stole a laptop and then logged onto the UF wifi with it using his own info and threw it out the window when campus security showed up....plus various other rumored academic investigations and numerous unpaid traffic tickets. Newton is from GA after all and was recruited as a TE. The two student athletes broke the law/rules and we're somehow faulting the coach? Don't forget Jenoris Jenkins comment when he was let go for smoking weed again..."If Coach Meyer was still here, I'd still be on the team". That's not the kind of atmosphere you want in your football program IMO. Should we expect 17-22 yr old men NOT to get in some trouble, sure, but we shouldn't hold the coach 100% totally accountable when these players make stupid decisions they KNOW have consequences. Newton went on to dubious circumstances at Auburn, Grier never even sat out his 6-game suspension when he transferred to WVU. At what point is looking the other way for on-field football success hurting your overall program. Mark Richt dismissed plenty of talented players who either broke the law or rules to the detriment of on-field success. Nick Marshall, Zach Mettenberger, Tray Matthews etc etc. Some UGA fans would rather tolerate the bad to get the good, I for one am glad CMR handled things the way he did. Kirby seems to be from the "Saban school" of handling things internally. Is it more effective? No way to know as I'm sure plenty of incidents at every school get handled under the radar. But I'm not going to judge CKS on the actions of student-athletes who know better and do dumb things anyway.

@ Geaux Long - Who's Mettenberger playing for this weekend???

Given the current climate at the NCAA, I highly doubt he'll be required to sit a year.

Why would AD McGarity agree to this!!! UGA went to Auburn back-to-back 2012 & 2013 with 2013 being "The Prayer at Jordan-Hare" game!! Auburn should have to return the "favor" the SEC scheduling office did for them. No way Kirby is OK with this.....

UGA beat Butch @ Tenn plenty of times....

Dilfer is probably the least likely Super Bowl winning QB ever. As for Fields, I believe he only started 19 games in high school. Does he have the potential, most assuredly, will it translate to success?

UGA's record when Gameday is in town is not good. Something like 4-15. UGA is the only school thats 0-4 when Courso dons the Bulldog mascot head. Stay away from Athens please!!!

Perhaps UGA will add to it's already record three Super Bowl MVP awards: Jake Scott SB VII, Terrell Davis SB XXXII, Hines Ward SBXL....

How is he going to play right away? What justification could he possibly use? I'm sure Fields has heard and used the n-word before.....not sure how that justifies a "hardship waiver"......he played in 12 of 14 games.

Pretty sure Tenn would welcome years they DONT play Bama right now...or get rid of permanent cross-over games and go to 6 division games and 3 rotating games. Would definitely mean everyone plays everyone else pretty regularly. It is weird how cross division games count in the SEC. Ga vs Auburn, Bama vs Tenn, Florida vs LSU every year...seems like an advantage to the other division teams NOT playing those three. I know each team has up/down cycles but imagine those 6 teams not having to schedule themselves every year. I'd rather the NCAA mandate one less FBS or cupcake per season. Bama opens vs Duke next year....give me a break.

His commitment video to Auburn should be epic.....

Move Auburn to the East, Mizzou to the West. Keep 6 intra-division games and one permanent cross-over game. Go to 2 rotating cross-divisional games so everyone plays all SEC teams within a 4-year period. UGA keeps Auburn every year being in the same division, Bama/Auburn could be permanent cross-over. Then the SEC plays 9 conference games like every other Power 5 except ACC. As to standing OOC games at the end of the year....the last week of the schedule + Thanksgiving is the perfect football combination. "Rivalry Week" is what college football is all about IMHO.

100% agree UGAFandom....this guy is a primadonna already. Glad he didn't end up at UGA.

@ ADB - You need a new line Al....

UGA plays ND, TAMU, Florida, Mizzou & Auburn on that list plus possibly Bama again...no one should be complaining about UGA's SOS next year.....
