it really is some kind of OCD thing. We scheduled the series for these 3 days and it will be played in these 3 days. If that's not possible, too bad.

I could argue against this idiotic rule all day, but just to play devils advocate here to try and understand their logic .... I believe it is to protect the road teams, especially the ones that don't charter flights (like we do). It would be unreasonable for a school to have to find 35 plane tickets on such short notice. I'm not sure if it's an NCAA or SEC rule, but imagine the schools with less money really like it because otherwise they would have to shell out some major cash if there is a rain out on the road.

Im not 100% sure where the rule comes from (NCAA or SEC) but I did hear it on ESPN Radio yesterday.
I don't have a problem at all with the rule. More than the plane tickets is the hotel rooms. Not reasonable to ask hotels to hold 20 rooms in case it rains. Just not a feasible thing to do. You have 3 days to get in 3 games. Doesnt seem unfair at all.
