Not until ESPN pays for it.

Of course. I didn't put a date on it. Eventually ESPN will pay for more frequent UGA/Texas, Bama/OU, LSU/Florida, Tennessee/A&M games and the like. And to still keep matchups like UGA/Auburn and Tennessee/Bama which will have to go away as a yearly matchup under the 8 game schedule.
