Florida-Georgia Rivalry Staying in Jacksonville, Could SEC Expand More?, Stop Moving Games Off Campus May 25, 2023

Show notes

On today's show, the Georgia-Florida rivalry game is staying put in Jacksonville for at least the next few years. Is that the right decision? Do Georgia & Florida fans want to keep the game in Jacksonville?

And could the SEC look at further expansion? Greg Sankey talks about what would factor into that decision, and it has to do with geography. Could Miami, Florida State or Clemson get fed up with the ACC, and look for greener pastures? The SEC would make sense.

Also STOP MOVING COLLEGE GAMES OFF COLLEGE CAMPUSES! Michigan State and Penn State will play their end of year rivalry game at Ford Field in Detroit. What is the obsession with moving college games off of college campuses?

SEC QBs in the Top 75 College QBs Since 2000 List, #1 is Stupid, Other News Around The Conference May 24, 2023

Show notes

On today's show we get you caught up on news Around The Conference as Nick Saban sounds off on the state of college football, Greg McElroy talks his top four new SEC quarterbacks, and another Georgia player is arrested in Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint.

Also, we run through ESPN's Bill Connelly's list of the Top 75 College Football QB's since the year 2000 - we count around 17 SEC quarterbacks who made the list. While some feel low like Dak Prescott at 72, or AJ McCarron at 67, it's who he lists in his top 10 that we have the biggest problem with. Joe Burrow, Tim Tebow and Cam Newton all belong in the Top 5, but we cannot BELIEVE who he ranked at #1 overall.
