LSU in Vegas is not a home game

I get it that you want to rant, but that's just not accurate. It's a pure neutral site game. The "home team" is just for scoreboard purposes and which sideline to put them on. And in a similar sense, UGA in Atlanta is a neutral site (and Clemson will have a lot of fans there). That ATL matchup with the SEC vs ACC in week 1 has been happening for years. It's not some new Disney plan to give the SEC a bunch of home games. You listed two neutral site games and two big matchup SEC home games. And it's very possible that the SEC could lose all four (my actual guess is they go 2-2).

Very curious to see what CFB games make it to ABC this season

Been going on 4 about 15 years, remember back then when they trashed ACC 🏈

Wait to see Tony Altimore's revised chart at the end of the year
HouClone 08/22/24 03:49 PM ET
Most of Altimore’s charts are of little value.

Hopefully by the end of the year I'll have my research done to counter it
HokieAl 08/22/24 05:21 PM ET
Look forward to seeing it. If you can somehow factor in
HouClone 08/22/24 07:38 PM ET
All depends on what data is available. I have a possible source in mind**
HokieAl 08/22/24 07:51 PM ET
The Big 10 Network publishes ratings. Perhaps use that as
HouClone 08/22/24 08:18 PM ET
Unfortunatley, ACCN is not in the ratings book**
CobbCountyHokie 08/23/24 04:34 PM ET
Any insight as to why not?

LSU in Vegas is not a home game
HokieAl 08/22/24 03:49 PM ET
Here is why I noted it as an SEC home game
CobbCountyHokie 08/22/24 05:40 PM ET
LSU being listed as the home game IS important
dayooper 08/22/24 05:05 PM ET
That's not different than any other season. SEC spin has been thick
HokieAl 08/22/24 05:19 PM ET
What ACC or Big XII games would you plug in instead?**
Pylons 08/22/24 03:32 PM ET
Let's think this one through. Let's say a 1-loss Clemson comes into Lane
CobbCountyHokie 08/22/24 03:48 PM ET
To answer *your* question, I don't know.
Pylons 08/22/24 03:58 PM ET
Yep. And this early in the season before we have playoff implications,
Femoyer Hokie 08/22/24 02:51 PM ET
I think it's pretty much been confirmed that only the SEC will play on ABC.
Baltimore_Hokie 08/22/24 02:37 PM ET
Yep. It's simple, the more that ABC has in its inventory, the more ABC will
