“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice.

Just wait until that ESPN deal replaces CBS for the SEC game of the week. $20 million more per school from that deal alone. Probably won’t be enough to keep McGarrity from raising ticket prices, though.

I get the extra cash flow from the next network to broadcast the sec game of the week, if it winds up being The World Wide Leader, the stadium fans, the home tv fans will not enjoy the experience going forward, probably even less than they do now…i say that with love in my heart for the college game (s)

It’s time to end the student athletic fee. If they want to charge students for football tickets as they do now, fine.

Starting to make the bowl money from the playoff insignificant. I wonder if that means the games will be officiated honestly now?
