Nothing says ACC tradition like SMU squaring off against Stanford. Catch the Fever!

 

[T-Boone]

That Duke v Virginia game will be must watch TV. Haha.

 

[ACamp1900]

ND should join the Mountain West and just moonwalk into the playoffs every year.... "Yall said to join a conference"

 

[rtrn2glory]

Seriously there's going to be more people in my living room watching college football all day Saturday then there will be at the Duke and Virginia game

Yeah I'd bet you'd like that, Mr. Mountain Time. My sleep schedule is still effed up from the Stanford game

 

[Irish du Nord]

Another tough road game for UGA in the stadium that has their colors and is in the urban center where most of there fans live...

Your sleep schedule and my liver

The Benz holds 71k, Lucas Oil holds 63k. The SEC could play their Championship game in the following non-college stadiums in their footprint (with capacity):

• Cotton Bowl in Dallas (92k)
• AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX (80k)
• The Superdome in New Orleans (73,208)
• NRG Stadium in Houston (72,220)
• Legion Field in Birmingham (71,594)
• Nissan Stadium in Nashville (69,143)
• EverBank Stadium in Jacksonville (67,814 [expandable to 82k])
• Alamodome in San Antonio (64k)
• Mississippi Veterans Memorial Stadium in Jackson MS (60,492)
• Camping world Stadium in Orlando (60,219)

It's been in ATL since 1993. It's no longer geographically central with the addition of all the western teams. Time to spread the love.

The Big 10 and ACC should move it around too.

 

[DCDomer]

Someone suggested it last week, let's call UCONN and bring our own trophy. Do it at Metlife.

I assume them both being domes is a factor. But even then there are other domes relatively centrally located in both conference footprints.

Trying to recreate the magic of that long lost UTEP/ Notre Dame yearly rivalry,….

Indianapolis, Minneapolis, and Detroit…surely I’m forgetting another dome stadium in B10 country?? Minny and Detroit I’d say are on the outskirts.

B10 shares between Chicago and Indy in basketball but obviously Soldier Field being an open stadium wouldn’t be an option in football.

I think St Louis still has the Edward Jones Dome sitting around empty. You can see Illinois from there, basically Big 10 country.

Also, not sure I’d call Detroit on the outskirts of a conference that stretches from metropolitan New York to Southern California.

Good point. I suppose with the west coast additions that pretty much now makes B10 country coast to coast.

 

[MrNimbus]

They should just rename the big 10 to the great lakes conference, just to really mess with people. None of these conferences make any sense now.

US Bank Stadium is walking distance from the U of M. If anything it’s too close to a Big 10 school! The Gophers likely won’t see a Big 10 championship game though

 

[pumpdog20]

eSECpn conceding the prime time slot is funny.

 

[drayer54]

Tech and BYU getting the early kick for the second time this year is a fitting reminder of their conference significance.

Sickening yet factual sentence.

Lots of discourse about Jimmy World Jr getting it after the Brown’s new dome is completed.

Going to be awesome! By that time the Bears will have won at least three Super Bowls.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

Tech and UGA need to get it done.
