They are straining themselves this coming weekend playing a powerhouse.............. Heavy week of practice coming up for the bulldogs. you know, they have this powerhouse defense that is going to show its strengths against Charleston Southern Buccaneers.......Where is Georgia?
Have you ever looked into when all that started in the SEC?They are straining themselves this coming weekend playing a powerhouse..............

I am by no means a Georgia fan, but what I don’t understand is why more conferences don’t put a patsy in the last couple of weeks. Im sure osu would much rather play Akron this week in prep for MICHIGAN, than msu.
To me, the SEC doing games like that later in season is smart football.
I hate doing this because up until now we have agreed on things but now you dun dood it. What do you call better scheduling, playing ranked teams or playing the #90 - 130 teams? If you are a top team playing anyone past 65 (bottom half of FBS) is a gimme game. It doesn't matter whether is is # 120 or an FCS team. It is more important what's at the top of the schedule NOT what's at the bottom.I think it's a cheap and embarrassing scheduling move. Yes, it absolutely has given the sec an advantage in some respects. but I applaud the B1G that no conference teams play FCS teams. I think that is laudable. I think playing an FCS team should be looked at negatively in the AP and playoff committee.
but you are right, there is part of me that says fuck it. if the "mighty" sec gets away with doing it, hell we all might as well take advantage of it. but can you imagine the top 40 ranked teams all playing a game the likes of Charleston Southern the 2nd to last weekend of games? what a boring weekend of football.
sorry, but playing MAC schools are >>>>> FCS............ by far.Because the first couple weeks when we play the likes of Akron and the directional Michigan schools the games are so exciting?
We have boring games every week, so I don’t buy into that line of thought.
Just don't think you can paint with this broad of a brush. The top 10 FCS teams are pretty equal with the middle to the bottom of almost every G5 conference. There is a huge gap between playing Mississippi Valley State and North Dakota State.sorry, but playing MAC schools are >>>>> FCS............ by far.
Sure there are a few exceptions to the rule. But on a large basis, I think the G5 schools would come out on top most of the time against FCS.Just don't think you can paint with this broad of a brush.

I thought the B1G came out with a policy that teams will not schedule FCS schools. If that's not the case, then I stand corrected. I could've swore I heard that a couple years ago from the Comish.......For the most part I agree, but playing either of these games, regardless of time of year, is not entertaining football. I didn’t watch Michigan play WMU back in Sept. When they play is non-issue for me
As far as B1G not allowing teams to play FCS, you may want to recheck that. There were at least 5 games this year I can think of that had B1G vs FCS teams

Son, go sit in the corner while the big boys talk, there are some crayons you can use to color with, maybe you can make up some plays to give the hokies coach that he could actually win a game with......Why are yall jerking off to who plays the slightly less shitty OOC schedule?
There is literally no difference between Akron and some random FCS team to a top 10 program. And acting like your school is all badass because they schedule shitty FBS OOC games instead of shitty FCS teams is embarrassing.
IMHO, you are going the wrong direction. Stop playing so many IN conference games (you're beating a dead horse). What we need is more P5-P5 OOC games. Each SEC team plays 8 IN conference games and I think that's enough (the SEC doesn't seem to have a problem determining who their champ is in a 14 team conference). I think we need TWO OOC P5 opponents each year (that will give you 10 P5 opponents each year). Then each P5 needs to play ONE G5 team. The 12th game is up to the conferences. If they are happy with their SOS than by all means schedule an FCS. If you want to schedule a 2nd G5. You can even schedule an 11th P5 (like the Big 12 needs to play a round robin in conference).I think they are trying to phase them out, but I don’t think it’s an official policy yet.
I would like to see all teams go to a 10 game conference (yes SEC, add 2 of them) and then 2 from other P5 conferences
oops!!! this didn't age well from yesterday.Son, go sit in the corner while the big boys talk, there are some crayons you can use to color with, maybe you can make up some plays to give the hokies coach that he could actually win a game with......
