The boys must take care of business the next two weeks.
But let's assume we do and we walk into Tennessee 4-0. What's the chance the SEC gives us a night game again? Would be such a great bump in experience to have that one be a night game.
We are competing with a lot that week. But dang that would be a great gift
Us and the confederacy are in the same flex window, anywhere from 2:30 until 7 our time. So we know it won?t be at 11:00.
Bama-UGA is already set for 6:30 on ABC, ND/Ark is set for 11:00 on ABC, and Auburn/A&M is set for the 2:30-3:30 window. Our game, SC/UK, and LSU/OM are set for the 2:30/7:00 flex. I would imagine LSU/OM may be the 2:30 ABC game, which would then put as at night, I would imagine.Quote:

I hate to say it but if Tenn beats UGA and I think they will then they will win the SEC. So we need to keep it close as possible when we play them.
I don?t know how they will handle the injuries, but the coaches HAVE to fix what happened the second half.......MANDATORY
I like it. Finish on us winning.Quote:

C'mon Vols!!
I would think we won't be ranked high enough, though...Quote:

Unranked teams have hosted GameDay. We have a good shot- have to see what happens.Quote:

USC is unranked right now but should be 4-0 then and Ill is the highest ranked they have been in awhile so thats a chance for them
LSU/Mississippi has a good chance as well like us unless Fla pulls an upset this weekend or TooLame shocks Mississippi
A&M has ND this weekend and Auburn plays at OU next weekend- so a loss by either likely eliminates that game
Good point. May not make the cut with CGD but SEC Nation will probably be here instead.Quote:

However, Penn State hosting Oregon is also that week, and I think that is absolutely where they will be.
Ranking does not really matter as much as it being a unique location. If they have a game where the host is better than normal, playing another good team, and the host does not usually host, they will go there?unless there is a huge game that week, and if there is a big enough game they almost always go there. They were at Ohio State twice last year and still went opening week this year.
So with PSU/Oregon, I am pretty confident that is where they will go, unless Ole Miss jumps up in the rankings. But they do not play anyone else before that game, so there is really no way for that to happen.
So in this case, no, I do not think we will be ranked high enough to compete with that game.
damn- I missed that one. Yeah- that one likely gets picked ahead of us
Penn State and Oregon will be Big Noon Kickoff and Gameday will not double dip with Big Noon 2 times in the first 5 weeks of the season. I think Gameday will come down to 3 places:Quote:

I would love for us to be in the discussion but I just don't see it as a possibility. That's the most loaded weekend of college football for the year. We might could get SEC Nation but I imagine they go to whichever of the marquee SEC games get Gameday. Now if we could be 6-1 when Texas rolls in on Oct 25th then I think we get it then.
Our Admin was literally told we are a finalist to host that weekend- provided Tenn beats GeorgiaQuote:

Will be interesting if they go to LSU @ OM or (most likely) Oregon @ Penn State. Gotta hope SEC bias factors in and that the field storming does us some favors here.Quote:

We should either get SEC Nation or Gameday pending we both win out. They like the underdawg and MSU being 4-0 with potential to be at MSU campus is a hot ticket for ESPN. It would be epic.
Guys....the DOGS just lost their best def lineman and starting off lineman.......let’s win the next two.......and let the chips fall.....
Steen really struggled though. If he had stayed healthy I think he was on the way to sitting.Quote:

They have done it plenty, especially when CBS had the SEC.Quote:

I think that was more to do with Corso's last game than anything else. That was also a big game but as a company, I would have a hard time believing they would do that if there are alternatives. Possibly LSU /OM would also be a big game unless Arkansas does us a solid.Quote:
