If I read correctly:
Someone asks him about doing a split Gameday broadcast from both Starkville and Oxford.
He replies they are kicking around different ideas.
Actually, that's a pretty clever idea.
Better yet have it halfway in between the two campuses. I'm too lazy to mapquest what that would be.
Maybe Chris Jones front yard in Houston?
I thin doing a split Gameday would be awesome for the state and something Gameday hasn't done before. Send Chris, Corso, & Samantha somewhere, and send Kirk and Desmond the other place & Pollack to the other place.
I was talking to someone about that very idea today. It would be great for the state and it would be cool as heck on the biggest sports day in the history of Mississippi.
It really is a great idea.
Assuming UM and A&M take care of business this weekend, 4 of the top 15 (maybe less with some luck and couple voters getting their head out of their ass) teams playing within a little over an hour of each other.
OM would lose it if they have to share their long awaited gameday.
Don't you mean they'd be ecstatic if we let them have half of our Gameday??? Our State man.Quote:

I could care less about College Gameday, but I would LMAO if that happened because of the reb meltdown.Quote:

no way they do Gameday in between. Would be awful.Quote:

I wasn't connected at all yesterday. Why is 12:00 a "very real possibility?"Quote:

We've waited over a decade to get Gameday, so don't make us share it. Give us one that's our own.
I can't find where Fowler said this. Where did you see this tweet?
Here is Folwer's twitter timeline

Seems impossible to actually out the sets up at both schools. Will be entirely possible for some of them to head over to Starkville for a remote broadcast though for a portion of it
Espn has mich st-Nebraska (pretty sure) already set at prime time. Lsu-auburn will be a big game too so it'll get a big slot. OM- bama will be 230. Tenn-georgia is 12 this week so I'm guessing we could get the same slot. I'm hoping for us-aTm and auburn-lsu getting 5pm and 8pm. It was strictly guessing and really hoping we don't get 12Quote:

@griffinannie oh, we know it'll be a huge day for MS.. Kicking around some ideas.
Anybody wanting to shout out to espn about gameday needs to be reaching out to Lee Fitting. He is the producer for gameday and the one who went on Finebaum talking about OM likely hosting. @leefitting
I wonder if prime time ABC is a possibility.Quote:

So do other conferences often have game times set more than 12 days in advance? Or is this a special case for Mich St - Nebraska?
I agree. I really don't care about Gameday and haven't watched it in about three years- but the amount of butthurt that would come from Oxford would make me laugh my ass off all week.Quote:

I'd rather play at 6 and not have it than play early and have it.
I'm intrigued but not really a fan of this idea. But let's say it happened. Wouldn't it be better to have one game at 2:30pm and the other at like 8:00pm?Quote:

Will be a Top 10 matchup. Oregon at UCLA and OU/Texas is that day, but UCLA could lose to ASU this week. And Texas could be 1-3.
it has to be in the backs of espn's minds that some of olemiss' ranking is a result of their hype machine. They will go into that game without a signature win of any kind. Dak is a good story and we have opened some eyes by dominating lsu for 55 minutes, so you know espn would like to get in on our game that weekend if they can work it out.
Makes the most sense to me. The dang crew wouldn't even have to leave the state. Just drive 90 minutes down the road and do it all againQuote:

What? You don't think itd be cool to host gameday from a freshly picked soybean field just off of highway 8?**Quote:
