the NBA season should always be this short if not shorter. Next to shorten MLB season so fans will give more of a **** about every game?

see I just dont get that not being from georgia and not living there.

would you rather uga have won today and lost to lsu, or lose today but win the sec and play in a bcs bowl? I would take the conference championship every time.

I also think playing this game at the start of the season is a good idea.

NBA!!!!!!!!!!!! ****in finally those **** sticks got their **** together

I'd want to play Georgia early in the season if I were y'all too...

I dunno, there's something pretty awesome about having the GT game during thanksgiving weekend. chance to talk smack to friends during the break, usually a chance for more of your family/friends to attend the game (if you plan on going) if it's then rather than early in the season, and it gives me a full week to gear up for the game. I was really pumped last night, didn't sleep well b/c was excited lol

Would you advocate every rivalry game be at the beginning of the season? That seems boring.

Plus obv b/c UGA lost their first 2 games I'm not a fan of that

I think having non-conference rivalry games at the start and conference ones at the end would be pretty cool. Doesnt have to be the first week but before conference play. They actually tried to get this game as the chickfila kickoff this year in the dome but GT would only agree if they would shift the home/away schedule so they didnt lose a home game and uga didnt want that.

Yeah, we're only up for playing one "neutral site butnahhhhh" game per year imo

Also, I'll give you a choice for av/loc.

Choice #1:
Location: RICHT RUNS THIS STATE

Choice #2:
Location: Tom Brady is a dreamboat <3

Had to do some LKJ'ing to come up with choice #2.

srsly though, it's not a bad idea. I just like all the hype that having this particular game at the end of the season brings. I guess it would be just as hyped, although different, in the beginning of the season.

One thing I don't enjoy is the outside possibility of either team looking past the other, which would be elimiated if the game was early in the season. If GT somehow convinced Florida to switch between playing in Jax and playing in the Georgia Dome each year, I'd be all for it.

i will put it up to a vote by SL, first to 3.

Vintage simply not as good at avatar punishments as I am.

ya but i'm 2-0 when avatar bets are on the line this year.

don't try to bet av/loc with me next week though /nittery

i vote for dat bulldog

I vote for the bulldog as well.

He's just so damn cute.

i dont even know where the brady one comes from

Do we actually count it as a win if you beat jackets and let him off the hook without a black person in his avi...?

Avatar bet noobs don't personalize to the poster.

Maybe I overestimated your hatred for NE? Or were you just mad as a NYG fan at the time?

I don't go in the mouthbreathing abyss that is SE very often.

My original idea was to figure out why he got banned not long ago and do something along those lines, but w/e. The bulldog one made me happier.

And for the record, my other avy bet this year was vs ZZ. Probably equal, if not better trolling opportunities missed. Might hvae to consult LKJ's total recall in the future.

ND and Fla getting put in their place tonight makes me a happy camper. Too bad spurrier is gonna win too...

So does this 2nd bottle of wine.

In b4 (and after) drunken nonfactual statistics itt from me

Where are you from? Maybe it is because neither team almost ever has a chance to win their conference but I think even if they did, the Louisville-UK game is way bigger than any game those 2 teams play each year. Like by a factor of 10. Speaking of which, Cards today! Trying to forget about FSU obv.

I got off pretty easy imo! Could barely even tell what the avatar was. Next year though. Next year. We're rebuilding.

Is this year's LSU the best team in recent memory? They are just on another level. Gonna have a good laugh when its them vs bama again. They could lose to UGA next wknd and still be the best team in the nation.

Like watch LSU suffer a major injury next week that significantly affects their odds in the national title game, all while Alabama gets a bye week as a reward for losing to LSU. I almost want that to happen just so everyone involved in the fiasco of this rematch national title game can feel great shame.

LSU is so good (and their QBs so bad) that I am not sure a single player's absence would affect their odds significantly. Maybe if there was a car crash or something.

Hilarious that with all the losses the past few weeks though bama is like exact same odds as LSU as of right now. Not that the bye week matters much since the game is in a month, but still. Saban is on some metagame **** right now.

They haven't exactly shown to have a huge margin for error in how they match up with Bama.

Well you DID say significantly. They are the most well-balanced elite team I can think of since I started watching college fb so much. What single player would you pick?

Your point is valid and taken. With most teams you'd point to taking out the QB but it obviously doesn't really work in LSU's case.

Dammit I just want there to be something that further shames the voters/BCS for allowing this Alabama thing to happen.
