Georgia-Georgia Tech in prime time again I presume.

NFL game on Amazon on Black Friday afternoon.

I get why they wanted to move the Egg Bowl early.

Honestly, this means there's a pretty good chance I might not even watch it.

The Egg Bowl is my least favorite sporting event.

11:00 am on a weekday sucks pretty hard. Although way more people than I thought get that Friday off. According to the Google, 71% of workers in the US get paid for the Friday after Thanksgiving and only 26% get Christmas eve off.

Trump needs to do an executive order stating that the 4th of July will now be recognized on the first Thursday in July and the new Pope needs to issue a proclamation that Christmas will now be recognized on the 4th Thursday of December. Maybe if those holidays were always on Thursday more people would get the Friday after off.

This is crap. I've attended the last 48 EB's in person. And I can't remember us having to play in the 11am Friday timeslot. Is this right?

I don't mind a breakfast and Bloody Mary tailgate. Gotta get up early to travel though. Have to win to get better time slots.

Good if you live close to Starkville - maybe. 100% Horrible if you don't.

Me and 3 others at least will be there from 2.5 hours away. You either want to be there or you don't. Up to you.

Because it's become plainly obvious over the years, State v Arkansas or OM will get the last selection for espn. Which is usually 11am.

I'm over 3 hours away and I'll be there. As a matter of fact, Gerald Ford was the president the last time an EB was played without me being there. But that doesn't mean the time slot doesn't suck.

Funny that the night games we play won't be SEC games. Ever.
