Stupid idea for the SEC. Why should we go out and play an LSU or bama or someone that isn't already on our schedule, if it doesn't even count in the standings? You win..cool, all you get is a W in that column same as if you'd played NM State. You lose..now you're pretty much out of the playoff picture. And you still have to play the rest of your SEC games.

The ACC is proposing it as a way to fill their P5 requirement for non con schedules, which the SEC also has. So if Tennessee scheduled A&M it would be replacing a game against an Arizona State, Minnesota, etc. I agree it is dumb though.

If that is the case, then there is no point, unless they are just trying to keep money inside the conference. There is no difference between UVA playing WF and UVA playing Nebraska.
