It's too bad "Chick-Fil-A" is still the largest part of that design. I would've preferred "The Peach Bowl presented by Chick-Fil-A" or something like that.. similar to how the Rose Bowl is done.

Charlie Strong telling it like it is. Says Texas will not be winning a National Championship next season.

And for some reason, Penn State is playing Central Florida in Dublin Week 1.

I will say this though, the Carrier Dome serves alcohol so if your a obnoxious opposing fan then you risk something bad happening. It's been awhile since a top SEC team traveled up to the Dome so that's going to be a hot ticket, can't imagine LSU being able to travel well there even if they wanted to.

Off topic for football but I was at a March Madness game last March and sitting in front of a group of Cuse fans and they weren't super loud or obnoxious. Seems to me like Syracuse fans are a nice group.

SEC sticking with the 8 game conference schedule and protected inter-division rivalries. They're also mandating 1 non-conference game per year vs. ACC/Big 12/Big Ten/Pac 12 conferences by 2016.

Yeah, I just saw that story. I like the idea of forcing the SEC schools to have at least one matchup a year against one of the power conference teams. Apparently the SEC did an extensive study to find out the best way to get into the CFB playoff and instituting a firm Strength of Schedule mandate is one of the big components in their minds.

Good move IMO.

Wait, so Florida is potentially being forced to leave the South for non-conference?

Nope. Pretty sure their game against Florida State every year fills that requirement.
