HawgGoneIt Posted June 20, 2020 Report Share Posted June 20, 2020 This still sucks because a big part of the draw to play in the classic is playing indoors in an NFL stadium. I do get that it's probably safer to be outdoors though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the governing bodies will want to piss off fans like they did back when they had championships game on a Tuesday because of soccer. We will see looks like the ghsa is on a week to week basis on updates for the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ga96 Posted June 20, 2020 Report Share Posted June 20, 2020 I wouldn't mind if Lowndes vs hoover switches to a home and home. Ive only been to alabama to go through headed to Mississippi state for baseball. Hoover stadium looks nice and big from what ive seen on broadcast games.

The governing body of the Benz doesn't care about high school football. Soccer pays their bills right now. If there are many more news stories like the 23 Clemson players that tested positive for Covid, we might be in trouble for the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im sure those over the corky kell have to get some kind of ok from the ghsa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Corky Kell has been played in Powder Springs before, and this year North Gwinnett plays McEachern, so that would be a home game for them. Would like to have it at the Benz, though.

Metro wants to keep that tax base cash in the area. So there goes the whole bullshit argument of playing in a large venue. And nobody wants to play at a converted baseball venue. If that’s the case we can go to Waycross. Rest assured GHSA will figure out some other reason to keep it there. SC games along with big rivalries should be kept in the local venues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I'll say is...make sure DuBose doesn't headbutt one of his players up at Mill Creek. People will go nuts if he does....

Having been there every year for games or competitions, it's a nice grass surface with a cool little knoll on one end zone. Would love to see how many seats fill out of the 10,000 available.

The playing surface there was shit late in the year. I think a few Packer players got tackled by cow patties that had been disguised with paint to make it look like grass or part of the design in the center of the field. The home side stands look nice and that side has nice facilities and concessions. The visitor side seating was adequate, but the facilities and concessions were not. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know turf looks better and cleaner, but grass fields remind me of what football is, a tough ground-out sport. And yeah, the home stands are very accomodating. Only once have I sat in the away stands, so I don't really remember much. All I know is we won 45-3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dome/benz now is the only reason majority of fans like going up north. Nobody wanna go to mill creek. That's directly paying into another schools funds. You see they aren't putting a limit on ticket sells. South Ga is eventually gonna have to show their ass and not contribute to sells to make them takes us serious. They are just sucking up to north Ga. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear you said the game between Colquitt and NG at the Corky Kell last year was the most boring game you ever watched... It was exactly a ground out game, but you almost fell asleep through it. #nighnight Anyway, if the field is well maintained and all, grass surface is good to play on. When it's green painted dirt with grass sprinkled in, not so much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
