to our future schedules. I haven't seen an official announcement to this effect, but it is on the GT & Vandy pages @ nationalchamps.net. Then again, we didn't announce the 4 gm series vs Samford & Jacksonville St until after it had hit the Birmingham papers & the Internet. If GT has contracted to play @ Vandy in '09 & host the Commodores in '13 then I again tip my hat to Coach Braine.
Mr Braine has done a good job of scheduling. I don't like the Samford & Jax St series or not having Auburn on the docket yet, but the rest has been a pretty good run of schedules by the AD. The way he's gotten Vanderbilt, UConn, Troy, Army, Ole Miss, Ala on the scheds has been good, as Homer already had Auburn, Notre Dame & Louisville lined up, I believe.
The 'future schedules' also shows Louisville coming here in '11, which is the 1st I heard of this. Is it a typo, a 2 for 1 where Lou comes here in '08/'11 & we go there in '09, or is it another 2 gm set & the page has left off GT's return trip to Louis to finish the 4 gm set??? If Louisville comes here in '11 with no return trip to Lou, that is quite a coup for Dave Braine. Even if Tech does make a 2nd return trip to Louisville, it's still a good piece of scheduling.
Here's the link to the future scheds which is nice to browse around. Remember that GT hosts Samford in '06,'07 & Jax St in '08,'09. Also GT is @ UGa in the even years while UGa is @ GT in the odd yrs. Enjoy:

Hivered,

I don't think GT is @ Aub in '11. I believe that to be left over residue from what was once Aub @ GT in '08 & GT @ Aub in '11. These 2 gms got lost when Aub schuffled the 3 gm series down to 2 gms, '03 & '05. The '08 & '11 gms have disappeared.
Ga Tech would certainly not play @ Aub in '11 w/o a return gm in Atl.
 
Re: Hivered,

I did not understand it that way...that will be something worth looking into.
