Would you want to see the SEC be in a challenge like what the PAC12 and Big10...

just cancelled? With which conference?

I would say the ACC, because you can incorporate existing rivalries into it.

I'd like the top 6-8 schools from teh SEC to do that - I don't begrudge the bottom teams some cupcakes given how badly they get beaten up in conference

ACC. Do it earlier in the season. We could start playing Miami again while keeping FSU on the schedule.

I like it. Keep UGA/GaTech, SCar/Clemson and UF/FSU...rotate the other 9 according to approximate pecking order from previous year.

PAC12 has 9 conference games and Big10 only has 8. PAC12 wanted more flexibility with non-conference games.

Stand corrected. Plus the 9 should be 11 now.

No thanks. Cupcakes taste better. I would rather 9 SEC games if strength of schedule is of concern.

9 SEC games provides an unbalanced home/away conference schedule.

F the ACC. thats an inferior conference with the exception of VT, FSU, Clemson and MIA. I would love to have that kind of thing working with the B1G. Or with Notre Dame alone.

Though kinda hard to imagine a Notre Dame - Miss. State game in Starkvegas. Or a Upig vs. ND match up in the Fayettnam.

SEC/B1G challenge would be great, maybe just 4 teams from each conference a year all playing 4 games on the same weekend.
