Sankey is getting absolutely HAMMERED in the national media. He is under intense pressure. He knows he needs to act quickly. I bet the final details are being ironed out today, and there will be a press conference tomorrow. He will order the schools to play the game, and a couple other schools will be affected. Somebody else is getting dragged into this. Maybe Georgia, maybe A&M, maybe Arkansas. But it will happen quickly.

At this point, Sankey should just bow out and let Foley make the new accommodations.

Stankey won't act without the blessing of Bama.


Therefore, when he does act, It will be after we know the outcome of the LSU/Bama game.

You expect the entire CFB world to wait a week for the SEC? Never gonna happen. Too much involved in bowl games to lose 7 days in December

This is the only way I want them to play it. frick Greg Sankey and frick Jeremy Foley. They both dropped the ball because they're too busy being a pussy and a selfish swindler than to make a decision with more than enough time to have played it. At this point, I don't think LSU should make one ounce of a special accommodation to make up for their bullshite.

They are already set to do that depending on Dec10 Army-Navy. It's a prewritten contingency.

I remember a day when men were men and capable of doing things like "Winner to this game, loser to that game".

More likely that they grease the refs to give us a loss and not have to worry with it. All I can say is blow everyone out like 2011, and not leave any games up to chance.

Where was the pressure Thursday & Friday to be played Sun or Mon. Politics at its best. AD and Coach got their way. Every other option benefits Florida compared to playing this weekend.

Like i've said, LSU will not play three consecutive SEC road games in 13 days. If LSU/Florida is to be rescheduled, another SEC game will need to be moved.

It's up to the entire SEC - all 14 teams - to make this work.

The Army - Navy game isn't the premier Conference Championship. Their is way more that goes into this game than two fan bases meeting at a neutral site. Sponsorship dollars alone make this an impossible move, now throw in TV and Playoff/Bowl selections and this isn't happening. If it's played it will be 11/19 with Thanksgiving at tamu being moved back to Saturday.

Sponsorship dollars are going to dry up if the SECCG game is moved from 12/3 to 12/10?

Don't have a clue what goes on around this game do you? It's not just the game take a look at the activities that go on around the game.
