The people in the suits do not care. They will play ND complaining

TerryD • 02/13/26 10:00 AM ET
I believe that. The rivalry between the SEC & B1G is heating up!
Stech • 02/12/26 11:17 AM ET
So, naturally.....ND will ally with him and the SEC

No doubt, although strange bedfellows. I really think the Mag 7+1

A night game at LSU every other year would be cool. **

You keep skipping over November scheduling issue, that's the one to watch.

Playing in November isn't any more of a risk then playing in September.

Yes, it is because in September the losing team has anywhere from 9-12

Yes, and VT could certainly accommodate a late season Tennessee game.**

There is nothing to gain by VT and Tenn playing a neutral site game late in
