If we do go to 9 conference games, then UGA needs to figure out something with the UF game. Otherwise we would likely play 1 fewer home game in certain years than most of our competitors.


I can't imagine UF or UGA voting for 9 game schedules without some assurances from the SEC that they we get to keep our normal allotment of home games. If they were try to give us 3 true home SEC games in years FSU is on the road, it probably wouldn't go over too well with the administration.

Like I told another poster, the years you have 4 SEC Home games, you'll HOST your ACC rival. In the years of 5, you'll visit your rival.
That prevents, as you're wondering, having 3 H, 1 @ Jax, & @ FSU all in the same year.

The big hiccup with that is it's not going to be fair for whomever is the Away team @ the WLOCP.
