Stupid decision. Schedule is hard enough without scheduling other power 5 teams. You think Oregon fans are happy that they played Auburn this year?

I swannee! Fans complain about scheduling the CSUs of the world, and having neutral site games instead of a home and home against P5 opponents. The powers that be appear to have listened and schedule a P5 home and home. Said home and home is 7, I say again 7, years away, and we complain about it because it's not a cupcake team. You can't make this crap up.
Not me, I liked CSU, I like seeing just about everyone on the roster play, and I have posted before we should try and schedule Western Carolina more, even though a 2-9 Western Carolina team did score 31 on Champ and Co in 2016, i Like them as a regional opponent, but like CSU more now being a regular scheduled opponent.
I like winning more games in a season
If you mean the Fort Dorchester Patriots then yes. No reason to make the schedule harder than it is.
In 2017 and 2018 we had one of the easier schedules in the country.
You got to it before I could. There is no winning. You schedule a week team, and people claim "it's a lose-lose situation. Nobody cares of you win and everyone laughs if you lose." They schedule mid-level teams at neutral sites and the comments you mentioned happen. They schedule this, and we see more whining. Bunch of morons.I swannee!

We've never won the SEC Championship.Clemsux has it easier because of who is in their conference, not their non conference matchups. Unless we want to leave the SEC it’s not changing.
We had an open date to get ready for Clemson. We could’ve had an open month. We were horrible.
We have never won a national title and have only been in legitimate contention for one a few times. Go ahead and play some big boys. We have only won the SEC once. It’s not like scheduling Miami is going to prevent that from happening.
Also all 8 conference games are not tough. A good team should get through Vandy, Kentucky, Missouri and even Tennessee with relative ease. Who is the best team that any of those 4 beat?
I wouldn't mind a series with VT.
And of course, one with OU is really high on my family's wish list.
But this will do, as a start.
We've never won the SEC Championship.
My mom used to say I Swanee all the time. I still don’t know what it means.I swannee!

Another option is Coconut Grove. Beautiful Area, with lots of great restaurants, and if you want you can drive to South Beach in less than 20 minutes.Playing them at Hard Rock is infinitely better than playing them at the old Orange Bowl was. That was dangerous. Stay in Fort Lauderdale.

The playoff committee has shown that they don't care about out of conference schedule.
In 2017 and 2018 we had one of the easier schedules in the country.
Perception, is everything, in today's landscape. While we were beating Clemson 5 in a row, they were winning conference championships, and going to major bowl games. Texas A&M went 7-5 this year, with all of there losses coming to top 11 ranked teams. There record gives the perception that they are mediocre at best. However, if they had drew Kentucky instead of UGA, and replaced Clemson, with NC State, there is a very good chance that they would be sitting at 9-3 and ranked well inside the top 25, with a better bowl coming.
The playoff committee has shown that they don't care about out of conference schedule. They look at all 12 games as a whole, and even then SOS is only a slight factor if you play in a P-5 conference.
While adding this game to future schedule increases fan interest, it is also a detriment to the overall program. There is no reward for having a top 5 SOS. It is a deterrent in being able to hire hot up and coming coaches, getting the best possible recruits, and overall perception of the program.
Clemson has proven that today's kids only want to win, and don't care about about SOS. They love huge victories and gaudy stats against lesser competition.
Not being a chicken little here, just trying to weigh the Pros and Cons of adding this game to the schedule.
Hence, our 16-10 record.
