Man, I know my Hogs have sucked as of late, but they are still in the conference. We would for sure qualify for 7 home games in this scenario.

Yeah... not exactly pumped about that one. Maybe if they played it in KC at arrowhead.

About mizzou and it’s shite gameday experience. Yeah we know. That’s why nobody wants them in the SEC. Thanks for nothing. Even Vandy offers a better away trip.

wonder how they would determine who gets 7 home games and who gets 6 home games. My idea would be to give the 6 teams who have won the most SEC games since 2012, 6 home games. Everyone else gets 7 home games.


6 home 6 away 1 neutral site

In this environment, I like an 8 game conf schedule regular season (6 Division games, 2 cross division); ensure 4 home and 4 away

Seeding for a 14 team tourney based off of the above game results for a 4 rd Tourney based on seeding, not division

1 and 2 get a bye.

1st RD:
- 1a: 14 vs 11
- 1b: 3 vs 10
- 1c: 5 vs 8
- 1d: 13 vs 12
- 1e: 4 vs 9
- 1f: 6 vs 7

2nd Rd
- 2a: #1 vs winner of 1a
- 2b: winner 1b vs winner 1c
- 2c: #2 vs winner 1d
- 2d: winner 1e vs winner 1f

3rd rd
- 3a: 2a vs 2b
- 3b: 2c vs 2d

4th rd finals
Winner of 3a vs 3b + a bonus 3rd place game between losers of 3a vs 3b

Higher seed hosts; 4th rd games in ATL

Could play around with the seeding, but it allows:
- regular season rivalries to continue
- minimum of 9 games played per team
- minimum 4 home games each
- an 11 to 12 game season for the top 4 teams
- every team to get a playoff atmosphere experience

Personally, I like this model even in normal conditions. But, add 1-2 FBS OOC games to the regular season (guarantees 10-11 games per team).

If other conferences mirrored this, an 8 team playoff (P5 Conf winners + 3 at large based on highest ranked in the CFB Playoff Cmmte ranking after championship rds). That makes the loser bracket (3rd place) games important to attempt to make a statement for an at large bid. Playoff seeding derived from CFP Cmmte poll.

Round Robin with aSECCG if necessary. No division BS, best two teams square off against each other.
