🏈 A little off-topic. Where do you plan to watch the game? With whom?

[Max]

And even more off-topic why does the Rose Bowl still get the preferential treatment they do? I realize the 5PT ET start is a long standing tradition with the game. When I weigh that against all the folks who talk about selections are made for TV audience it makes no sense to have a game on the east coast kicking off close to nine and a game on the west coast kicking off at 2PM their time. Logic tells me it should be switched.

As for me and my house, I'll be staying within the confines of my house. You
?

There's one thing very few places offer; the ability to rewind the game as it's live. That's one of the reasons I'll likely watch this game at home. I might venture over to a friends house but ONLY if he lets me control the remote.

UGA v OU ... likely watch that one at a local watering hole with a few UGA fans.

 

[Bamabww]

Haven't decided for sure but either with my son and his family in Huntsville or at home with my wife and a daughter who will join us. I don't like watching a Bama game with anyone but Bama fans.

At the house.

O so close to buying up the 180$ tickets....and going with relatives in Baton Rouge..( a game at BD with Tide Pride added are over 100$ each)....but .....
Me n MS50+ will sit back...at the house...close to the beer and ribs...and bathroom....to late for any friends n family to be over..:bman::bamadance:
Agree with :agree: 12gage...stupid to have the east game late and earlier game out west...the Rose Bowl is in same category as Notre Dame, newspapers, milk delivery, doctors housecalls.....get with the times and move on...(although some of those have done so.. the others need to)...
anyway....right here...cheering the Tide...

Of course, the "rose bowl" wasn't the "rose bowl" when we played in the "rose bowl" but didn't we play Texas in the evening game?

 

[TheChief]

Home with a bunch of friends. Some of them will leave early. The timing of this game wreaks havoc for those of us on the east coast who have to get up and go to work.

 

[alabama mike]

I will be watching from home in southern Ohio, eastern time zone. Tuesday morning will be tough getting up for work.

 

[BamaFan334]

Gonna watch the Georgia game at my dad's (all Georgia fans, sister's go there).

Coming home and watching our boys play. Weird that a younger guy would do this, but I have grown accustomed over the past few years to watching the games in my bed with a blanket over me and focusing. I absolutely hate outside noise and being bothered when we play. Never go to bars or othets' houses, because I don't like talking or having to mind my manners. Can do it with any other team, but like to focus when we play.

The "Rose Bowl" that year was OSU vs Oregon which was at the normal kick time. And yes, night kick on that one. (I don't regret taking the 1/8 off that year.

Thank for the inform, but it look like you got to have AT&T phone service. I have Verizon service.

These next 2 games aren't about Alabama winning the NC, it's about me emotionally surviving the process. My family and friends have long ago learned to find their own space on gamedays of this magnitude. Nothing personal, you see, but me and my TV will be intensely engaged in a highly combustible mind meld.

@TerryP I try signing up and told me my phone wasn't comparable for this service. I will go back and try again.

It may require having an ISP for your home and it's not for someone who uses mobile exclusively (assuming that's what you're doing.)

 

[OldPlayer]

I'll be watching from section 618 in the Superdome.

The Rose Bowl is played when the Rose Bowl is played because of time zones and TV. The Rose Bowl at 5 p.m. ET is only 2 p.m. in California. If you play a night game in California, it becomes an early morning game on the East Coast.
