    Why do we continue to schedule non-con baseball as if the opponent doesn't matter?

    I'd guess that it is not easy. I do know that mid-week games are dictated by the schedules and regional travel of the other other conferences. We have to catch a SunBelt/AAC/SoCon/SWAC team passing through on the way to play a weekend series, or one on the way to one of our series. That...

    Why do we continue to schedule non-con baseball as if the opponent doesn't matter?

    The Guv Cup does not count as an SEC game - so it counts as part of our non-conf RPI, just like USM

    Why do we continue to schedule non-con baseball as if the opponent doesn't matter?

    That's probably more on them then it is on us. I honestly didn't realize that we went from 1998 to 2021 without playing them.

    Why do we continue to schedule non-con baseball as if the opponent doesn't matter?

    This is a thread full of ridiculousness. Our OOC RPI is 13. We have the 4th best OOC RPI in the SEC. We played the #1 RPI team in the country in our non-con games. We play OM and USM as non-con teams annually who almost always are Q1 RPIs. We played Tulane (which Patdog has already forgotten)...

    State 1878 announced…

    UGA started one in February - ours is identical: https://gloryglorygeorgia.com/ I happened to be in Athens the day after it started and went to a Magill Society event with a friend who is a a big UGA donor. The head of their Bulldog Club said they had about 2,500 sign up the first day, and it...

    OT: cars you've owned

    1) 1979 Chevy Caprice Classic with a police package engine and transmission. I bought it from my great uncle who was county police chief. He had ordered it "special". It was a beast and would cruise at 120 mph like champ. 2) 1990 Toyota Celica GT Convertible - perfect for living at the beach...

    Looking ahead to UGA.....

    Well, to quote the old adage - "Everybody is somebody in Snellville..." UGA does have some pop. But, they feast on a very weak OOC and play in a hitters park, so their offense can be inflated. But, I really don't their pitching is good. I went to their last pre-season scrimmage and I was...

    Anyone got any other data to back this up or refute it?

    The growth in SC is definitely happening. Was working with city leadership in Hardeeville a couple of weeks ago - which is one of the fastest growing communities in the country. Huge 3500-4000 unit retirement communities popping up all around them, plus huge spillover from Savannah and the...

    You must enjoy pine trees, swamps, mosquitos, and sand gnats.

    Mike Leach’s last QB??

    Man, I wish he could have been Leach's QB for us the way Mike intended.

    Iran is touching the boats.

    We were having indirect talks with them Thursday - https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/2/28/peace-within-reach-as-iran-agrees-no-nuclear-material-stockpile-oman-fm “A peace deal is within our reach … if we just allow diplomacy the space it needs to get there,” Al Busaidi said in an interview...

    The most famous person you’ve ever met….

    I met Kevin Bacon when he was filming a movie where I worked, so no 6 degrees needed.

    The most famous person you’ve ever met….

    Tom Glavine and Bruce Sutter came to work with pitchers at my high school after his rookie season. We heckled Glavine about how bad he was as a rookie, and he got in his BMW and left. Spent about 15 minutes talking with Chris Fowler at the '96 Olympics after the men's road cycling event. Met...

    OT: What was your hourly pay at the first W2 job you held?

    $3.80 bagging groceries at Kroger in 1989. All my grandmother and mothers friends shopped at that store, and I made $2-3 in tips for every old lady I bagged groceries for and took to their car. My friends I worked with would get pissed because they may get a quarter or .50.
