  • CSS needs to stop crying. If you are only going to count the games from the division you play in. why even play the other division? I mean its not like they don't rotate teams. USC, you lost to AU. A team UGA blew out. If you wanna be mad about anything be mad about that. When we look at the past of the SEC every team has had down years, and up years. Just a few seasons ago Bama and Ark were not that good and UT and UF were two of the top programs in the nation. So what happens when you change the format and teams like Ole miss start complaining that they have to play AU, LSU, Bama and A&M and Ark every year. Do you then take away all SEC games. Its not like USCe lost to Bama and LSU last year. You lost to AU and Ark. two games you could have won. When it comes down to it. the top 9-10 teams in this Conference can bet each other on any giving sunday. Ask Uf about the ole miss game a couple years back. Or UGA about vandy. Upets happen. In your own words CSS you even admitted that UGA was the better team on the field last year against you.

  • Steve spurrier is a non issue to me, Steve, thanks for the Florida years. Ur offense sucked in the NFL and the just called ur foursome on the palms couse. C-ya.

  • Let UA, UT, AU and UGA use the 6-1-1 schedule model and the remaining SEC teams use the 6-2 model. Issue solved.

  • dumbest argument i've ever heard. can't think of any other situation in which a divisional record precedes overall conference record. he might as argue that any USC win should count for two wins. i can't wait to blow his sorry a** team off the field in october.

  • Is this seriously a legit topic of discussion? I mean, Les Miles is a certified retard when it comes to public speaking, he should just never be allowed to speak to the media. James Franklin just likes controversy. I bet Spurrier is cackling at those two buffoons throwing in their support for his outrageous suggestion.

  • I thought they were going to discuss how not to sleep with your athletic departments new hires.
    Why its not best to hire legendary coaches sons (tennessee... are you paying attention?)
    And if nick saban is napoleon reincarnated.

  • Spurrier has become a whiney little girl.

    1. Over the past 30 years, Auburn>Arkansas.
    2. If you had just beaten Auburn, who UGA manhandled, there wouldn't be a discussion.
    3. The SEC has been decided the same way for 20 years. Spurrier has never had a problem with it until now. Butthurt?

  • The only reason y'all are not agreeing with what spurrier is saying is bc y'all have a weak sec west schedule like last year. Look at it if y'all were in our shoes. (no way your not pissed if you sweep the east and still not rep the east in the sec champ. Game). I can also understand that y'all are pissed bc spurrier owns y'all and will create more hatred for him after we stomp y'all in Columbia in October for the 3rd year in a row!

  • Schedules are cyclical.
    They always have been.

    How come spurrier didn't come up with this great plan when we played lsu, bama, and auburn?

    Because he's the one who is butthurt, and you are the lemmings jumping on his bandwagon.

  • Spurrier is just playing the game. If you recall, when he was a favorite to win the SEC in 1992 he openly had concerns about the SEC Championship game deciding the conference winner. However, when his team started losing and Florida took a couple of SEC losses into the game against an undefeated Alabama team he was throwing bouquets at Kramer for coming up with the idea. So, honestly, he knows this is a hair-brained idea for the SEC he just knows it is his best shot, in an incredibly weak SEC Eastern Division, of getting back to Atlanta.

    I do not care how many self-serving coaches throw their hat into the ring on this idea (and yes think about Miles' situation last year and Franklin's situation at Vandy and you can see through their agendas) this is a non-starter. And classic Spurrier.

    You Georgia crowd keep talking - you know who was the best team in the East last year - and who will be again and it wasn’t Georgia. Get ready to get beat again ( yawn).

    Best team in the East was Georgia. (Best team *against* the East was not.)
    Congrats to SCar on their best ever record. One day you'll even win another division crown. Someday you'll even play in a major bowl, maybe.

  • As always, don't want threads to become taken over by visiting fans or nothing more than a back and forth with little substantive being shared.

    Edit: OK, on second thought not going to lock it, but posts from non-members that say nothing more than essentially "You guys suck. We're going to win," will be deleted.

    Only a moron would agree with what steve spurrier said. You play 8 sec games and those 8 games count toward the winner of the division. If you only want division games to matter then only play division games otherwise don't change the SEC and how our division winners are handled because you can't take care of your business on the field.

    As always, don't want the back and forth from rival fans with no substantive points being made.

    Gentry not to tick you off, but this is a Dawgs board and if they come on talking trash we have every right to return it.

    Don't disagree, which is why I'd rather it just not start in the first place, especially when I'm on the road today and won't be able to moderate as closely as usual.

    "...an incredibly weak SEC Eastern Division.."

    I know Georgia couldn't close against Michigan State, but I still don't think you should sell them short. I could easily see the Dawgs riding the conference's 4th best D to another fringe top 15 season. With a top ten South Carolina, a rebound out of Florida, and a decent year from Vandy or UT, that's probably the second best division in college football.

  • I am more interesting to see how the scheduling comes out looking in 2013 an beyond. Supposedly we are picking up A&M as a permanent opponent. I'd just as soon do away with them entirely, but I know those four teams love them.

    I know schedules are cyclical, but I hope 2013 is more fair. Auburn rebuilding will have a lot to do with that.
