I personally think that we should all take 10 seconds or so here to really think about this. No need to hurry things up. Here's my main point:

A 9 game conference schedule doesn't give the 2nd and 3rd team players a chance to play, which means that the starters will be in more. This is not good for player safety. Another hard nosed game to add to an already brutal conference will seriously put kid's in danger.

8 sec games is already dangerous, you add a 9th game, that increases the chance of player injuries.

Smoking 9 cigarettes is worse than smoking 8.

Ignoring the obvious troll, I actually do kind of agree with the point that an extra gimme is nice, at least for the top dogs, because it gives them a chance to play players who would normally see very little, if any, time on the field, and then always in mop-up duty. It's probably the only compelling reason I've seen thus far to stick with 8 games (not that the people I've been discussing it with haven't presented good arguments, just that they weren't compelling enough for me not to offer a counterargument.)
