    40,000 Dawg fans that close to East Palo Alto would Not be cool. Way too small in the peninsula to accommodate Dawg fans.

    Perhaps accommodations in SF, or San Jose. I’m sure Pebble Beach and Carmel would be a hit, but I’m concerned about accommodations and drifting a little too far into the EPA area. Could be dangerous.

    Same issue with Berkeley and Cal. Accomodations would be ok, but Oakland/Berkeley could get dicey for tourists. Selfishly, I’d be all over that game and would LOVE it, but I like Cal more than Stanford. Games on the Farm are boring.

    Oregon would be cool. I’m not familiar with Washington.

    Don't know the school/facilities - stadium is on its own arm of a peninsular, vicinity of Seattle - but a September game would likely have wonderful weather - clear sky, warm but no humidity. Might have same into roughly mid-October. After that, the rain begins and continues, and continues Energizer bunny style until late May. Husky fans are a real deal. So, hope for an early season game, and Dawg fans would really enjoy the trip. An extended stay could allow a "cruise ship" trip to Victoria, BC - itself a beautiful city.

    Nahh friend, Im talking about Stanford. Looks cool on TV, and Palo Alto is great bar hopping and restaurants, but 40,000 Dawg Fans is just too much for the South Bay/Peninsula of S.F.

    Your last sentence that I quoted mentioned Washington (" I’m not familiar with Washington."). That is why I cited Seattle. I may be certifiable, but not for my response to your comment.

    And if it's Stanford or Berkeley, I'll host a tailgate on a boat in the San Francisco Bay.

    Awesome. I immediately imagined CalifDawgs boat starting to capsize in McCovey Cove with about 3,000 rabid Dawg fans clinging to the sides and each other.

    Im there. My folks are in Lafayette, so Berkeley is right down the road. Berkeley would blow people’s minds for sure, lol.

    I have an irrational fear of sharks. I used to see those knuckleheads parasailing around Candlestick Park. There’s sharks all in that water.

    My folks had a boat when I was a kid, but I haven’t been out on the Bay in many years.

    i'm not sure why a fear of sharks is irrational. Sounds pretty sane to me. Being raised in the bay area, we often went fishing around the bay and caught several sharks over the years - small ones - but always gave them a wide berth after landing them. They do have sharp teeth you know....not called nature's perfect eating machine for nothing.

    Certain bodies of water I steer clear of. I’ll get in the water in Santa Cruz, or Carmel, but never around the city.

    That little lake in Tilden Park in Berkeley is as close as I’ll get.

    That’s cool. I never caught a shark.

    The Crips would think the Bloods were mounting an offensive.

    UCLA??

    Already happening

    Future OOC opponents
    2019 - Notre Dame
    2020 - Virginia (Atlanta)
    2022 - Oregon (Atlanta)
    2024 - Clemson (Atlanta)
    2025 - @UCLA
    2026 - UCLA

    and then

    FUTURE SEC ROTATING OPPONENTS

    2019 – Texas A&M
    2020 – at Alabama
    2021 – Arkansas
    2022 – at Mississippi State
    2023 – Ole Miss
    2024 – at Texas A&M
    2025 – LSU

    So we play A&M twice before lsu rotates around again? That's a weird scheduling qwirk.

    I am glad that we are playing in the dome thus limiting Bama and Clemson, but I'd rather be doing a home and home with Oregon, Virginia, and Clemson. I'd be nice to visit the Pacific Northwest for a college football game which my Dawgs were playing.

    I think its amazing that Georgia has only played A&M twice since 1955.
