Take it for what it's worth, but I heard there is still an issue with Arky and venue that could be delaying final release. Some Arkansas legislators are apparently trying to block the LSU-Arkansas game from being moved to Fayetteville. I have no link, my source is a relative that subscribes to some paid message boards. He's usually right. Again, take it for what it's worth.

Anyone else heard something like this?

One thing that is looking more apparent, since VolQuest.com confirmed yesterday that Tennessee will not host Arkansas this year, is that the SEC decided to go with an 8 CG format as opposed 9.

Dear God! Please get rid of Towson. This has got to be a low water mark for OC games!

Which is why that schedule is incorrect.

Mark it, I predict LSU will not be traveling to Lexington next year.

Also, if Arkansas really is moving the LSU game to Fayetteville, it makes me think the game may not be Thanksgiving weekend anymore. Arkansas has to play two games in Little Rock per season and usually one of those is Thanksgiving weekend since most of the students are gone for the holiday. Therefore, my second prediction is that LSU-TAMU may be the new Thanksgiving weekend match up.

So, we only play 11 games total, 7 SEC games (with 4 of them on the road), 3 games against SEC East teams, and we don't play Mississippi State or Arkansas in our division? No way this is anything close to being right, nor was it ever official or even under consideration.

No, that's only when they play us for their home game. They always play us on Thanksgiving weekend, even when the game is in BR.

Hence the word "usually."

Looks like it could be after Christmas before schedules are released.
