Same schedules

Am I taking crazy pills? Is anyone else in disbelief that the schedules are the exact same except for Home/Away flipped and some minor re-ordering? Obviously this is how it worked for the divisions but these aren’t divisions, it’s primarily a random hodge-podge. And even with the divisions there was the rotating pair of cross-division teams. We don’t even get that.
Only rationale I can see is certain ADs crying foul over a perceived difficult away schedule in 2024. Solution should have been to just move on to the proposed long-term solution (pods, divisions, whatever), not doubling down on the “band-aid” year.

Its to help Texas. Sankey handed Texas a SEC Title Berth with last years schedule and decided to do the same this year.

No dispute over Texas having an easy schedule in 2024, that’s not even the point here. Point is that next year will be boring, if not for sec fans then for the casual viewer

Fairly certain this was established awhile ago. That the first two years would be mirrored conference schedules until a long term plan was developed.

You're correct, it is a random hodge podge. The 10 year schedule that was set in 2014 was cut two years short and went out the window when we let two additional schools into the conference. A redesigned rotation was never going to happen until the existing TV deal expired.

Yeah I agree. Youd think youd want Texas LSU, Texas Alabama, Texas Tennessee, Texas Ole Miss(Manning connecttion). But nope of course not. Just another Texas Georgia. I guess a 3rd generation Manning being in Starkville is interesting to us.

This generation can’t be happy with anything. It’ll be great.
