I got downvoted to oblivion a couple years ago for saying the championship game is unnecessary now.

Well now that we have a 9 game conference schedule and a 12 team playoff I’d love to hear why the game is necessary and how it benefits the conference (besides money).

That’s fine. We can just win them all.

Agree, but too many daglets all the way round.

Kill it!!!
Kill the conference championship games

They are garbage now. Even #1 vs #2... completely pointless game

We could be watching so many awesome Play In games

If Tulane and JMU make it while Bama, Texas, and Vandy get left out, the problem is bigger than the SECCG. Sankey has grounds to throw his SEC weight around and leave the NCAA.

It’s unnecessary because of the 9 game conference schedule and the playoffs will 99% be expanded to 14-16 teams next month going forward.

Adopt the Pro Bowl model. Play dodge ball and sign autographs.

Should just do season champion instead. Avoid the extra game.

You act like this is an edgy take in 2025. It isn’t. The CG SHOULD be eliminated, no one should play OOC P4 teams, and we SHOULD go back to 8 games. But the conference leadership is spineless.

Because the system needs to be revamped to accommodate the new 12 team playoff

The conference championship games don't make sense anymore...let them go.

Alabama should have been Regular Season SEC Champ

We need play in games
Texas vs Ole Miss
Oklahoma vs. Vandy

This could have been today

Also have Tulane and James Madison play for their bid

Outdated conference championships need to go

Come on, you know the reason they play this game. The conference is making a mint off of this game.

Money is the reason any of this happens.
