Well, if scUM really wanted to play us every year, they would have joined the SEC in '92. They were invited and they declined.
I have no desire to play them at all, let alone every year. Go Gators!!!! Ken B.

The question I have a problem with is why we didn't add UM back when the NCAA made the 12th game permanent? We had played UM off and on whenever the goofy prior rule allowed a 12th game. -Zeb On Jun 16, 2010, at 5:40 PM, ken...@earthlink.net wrote: > If the schedule fell the right way, it wasn't so difficult to win > the championship.
