UF/LSU reschedule options
Posted on 10/9/16 at 7:22 pm
Posted on 10/9/16 at 7:22 pm
So what are SOME of the options?
-11/19: both UF & LSU cancel non-conf games and play in Gainesville. LSU should flat out refuse loss of S Alabama game and it's subsequent Impact to LSU/BR. Not to mention the short week, missed recruiting day, LSU SR Night, and 3 straight road trips in that scenario (even if A&M moved from Thurs to Sat).
-the SIMPLEST solution boils down to one of two options that are undoubtedly NOT going to happen:
A) just don't make up the game at all and UF/LSU likely excluded from SEC-CG contention
B) one team forfeits
-12/1: delay SEC-CG 1 week. The next simplest solution and lowest impact to UF-LSU alone. But likely the BIGGEST impact to College Football overall (shakes up timing of playoff committee and all bowl game selections).
-NEXT simplest solution is a "one-off" impact. Involving just one other team outside of UF/LSU. A few may be suggested, and interruption of the WLOCP is just ONE of these solutions (however unlikely).
-next is the near exponential solutions which include shuffling multiple teams schedules due to combined open dates and/or games against non-SEC opponents. The more outside parties involved, the more difficult and cumbersome the negotiations.
So where does this thing go from here?

This was the one CORRECT answer, but unfortunately will NOT happen.

That should've been the call on Thursday instead of "white boarding".

If only there had been a precedent of an SEC game getting moved from Sat to Mon, with decision made on Thurs prior, due to a named storm.

I say we kick South's arse in the morning of the 19th, 10am. Get on a plane to Gainesville and kick Florida's arse that night, 8PM. Then 5 days later kick the Aggies arse.
Would be unprecedented and super awesome.

I like Dec 3. Push back SEC championship game a week.

Can't push back the SECCG a week since the bowls selection is on 12/04. You would also push back all the bowl games a week. So that's not going to happen.
My solution is:
Georgia vs. Florida on 10/22 (moved up a week)
LSU @ Florida in Gainesville on 10/29

A home/away doubleheader. Somewhat unorthodox and logistically impossible.
Why not schedule both halfs of the doubleheader in Gainesville? The USA game in the morning would be technically an LSU home game, we beat the tar out of them and we're ready and conditioned well to take it out on the Gators in the evening.

This is by far the easiest solution, and I'm not sure why it hasn't already been completed.

Win Win scenario for both schools IMO

I dont see Arky agreeing to this.
