I favor a 10-game SEC schedule. 5 permanent opponents and rotate the other 5 each year.

I’m with you on this

Biggest issue with this is teams have a max 7 home games and 6 if you play a home-home with a P5 team or have a neutral site game. Way too much money lost for this to be considered.

Texas must not care about winning in Football.

I like the occassional FCS home game at noon, good to take little kids to and get them started on the traditions, less drunks, cheap tickets, and you are almost guaranteed to win.

Secondly, it's a great way to get your depth some reps, get some guys in the game that work just as hard as everyone else throughout the year but never sniff the field.

Thirdly, as a fan of college athletics as a whole, those games fund the entire athletic departments of those little schools. Without those games, those schools don't have athletics.

Fourthly, nobody gives a frick what you think.

You can still have two non-con games to play whoever. A traditional non-con rival or a cup cake.

Backups can hopefully play against your cup cake.

Don't care about supporting the athletic departments of the Mid-majors. That's their concern.

My point is simple, a 10-game SEC schedule would have more value from a fan experience. Thus enhancing the brand both from a conference and individual team perspective.

We already have Texas fans telling us how to set the schedule.

Not telling anyone how to set the schedule, just my two cents. As SEC members when this takes effect in 2024, I do believe all conference schools should have a say.

We already did it and stomped e'ery body

No one cares about the FCS/Mid-major scrimmage games anyway.


Except when Texas and Aggy need that win to make a bowl game

---

If a team needs to win those games to be bowl eligible they have no business in a bowl game. Fans don't care about minor bowls. In fact, most players don't seem to care either, given the number of opt-outs.

This sounds like UGA vs Texas in a worthless Sugar Bowl, aka Texas’ biggest win since 2005
