Rick and John debate the report that the Deep South's Oldest Rivalry, Georgia vs Auburn, will move their game to October starting in 2020.

Rick details the reason for the move saying it's because the Tigers don't want to face a tough schedule: Georgia, followed by a FCS team and then the Iron Bowl against Alabama. Basically, Auburn doesn't like having to travel so much in November every other year.


Rick believes that UGA should say not only say no to this, but a resounding 'Hell no!' This is not a UGA problem. This is Auburn's problem. John reminds Rick that UGA has no control of the SEC schedule. The conference will do what they want; not what a head coach or athletic director wants to do. 

On the flip side, John talks about how moving the game from November to October could actually benefit UGA. While the schedule is being tweaked for the future, Georgia could take advantage of the back-to-back home games vs Auburn. Rick agrees, saying it's only right that Georgia be awarded back-to-back home field advantages. Back with Mizzou and Texas A&M were added to the SEC, the Tigers received two-years of the the Dawgs visiting their home stadium.

John says this move is on Bulldogs AD Greg McGarity saying he should be the one to step up and shoot the idea down.
