But I don't believe ESPN/ABC is paying the money for Alabama to play The Citadel, ULM, Eastern Michigan, and Southern Miss at home


Here is the stupid part of the 9 game analysis.

Right now, going from 8 games to 9 games potentially eliminates 7 games from the espn inventory.

A game for Bama against Arizona st... a game of vandy against hawaii... both get scrapped to get Bama to play Vanderbilt.

So instead of ESPN publishing 2 games with 4 fanbases watching, they are scrapping it for 1 game with vandy vs Bama.

It is so short sighted.

haven't fans bitched about paying full prices to see buy-a-win blowouts? so now we're trying to give them what they want

now will say this. if a 10 game conference schedule is coming, that means no team has to lose a home conference game, and the split will be an even 5 home, 5 away for everyone
