The SEC Championship Game will be played on Dec. 19. The presidents, including Auburn's Jay Gogue, followed the recommendations of a majority of athletics directors. It is unclear what impact the later starting date will have on the start of preseason camp or what the schedule will look like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Win4AU 4,044 Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Sounds good to me. Let the kids get back to school and see if things get worse or stay stable. Now we wait for exact details. Also should be cooling off by Sept 26 so those that do get to go won’t melt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on that we should see Auburn travel to Vandy next year and get Florida at home in 2022. That Florida game should be massive. 2022 home schedule will include home games against LSU, Penn State, and Florida. Can I go ahead and reserve my seats?

WarEagle2423 357 Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Wonder when the new schedules will be in place. I’m in a wedding on October 17th (original A&M weekend), and it would be clutch if that turns into an away game haha. Knowing my luck, it’ll probably be the LSU weekend.

I haven't looked at everyone's schedule side by side but I'd figure it'd be easy just to keep everyone in the same order and just start Sept 26. I would assume that would keep teams from overlapping. I'd assume you'd leave the back half of the schedule open for any makeup games that need to be rescheduled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dual-Threat Rigby 8,574 Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 if they can just beat whichever new guy UGA rolls out and can beat LSU for fking ONCE...we're pretty much guaranteed a top 6 finish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quietmaninthecorner 1,940 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 I am too busy to read up on this. Does anyone have the rundown on which of the "new" games will be home and which will be away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on when that Miss St game is, I wouldn't say that. Schrader is a very capable QB and UGA had most of their problems last season on defense against guys who could get it off deep. IDK how the talent looks like, but Leach could be an odd matchup. We play a Missouri team that just lost their lead QB and I believe USC lost their lead RB and WR w/o looking it up. and neither had a good defense last year. and both arent gonna get up for a game like Miss St's crowd would.

weagl1 1,780 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 I still don’t think any games get played until spring. This stuff is not letting up. I think a week or so before September 26 the season will be canceled or they will agree to play a few games at the end of spring practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
