I think this topic has come up before and had lots of discussion. ;)
The basic format makes since. You always have 3 permanent opponents(rival games if you will) and rotate every 2 years 5 teams groups as OP noted.
What is nice about this set up is a player has a chance to play at every SEC venue in a 4 year time frame.
However, as has been noted, handling of the champ game would be hard.
It will get interesting to see what happens once the 4 team playoff starts. The SEC champ could basically be a quarterfinal game that actually hurts the SEC from getting 2 teams in the playoff.

No one needs to be concerned with getting two teams in a 4 team playoff. It's too greedy. In an 8 team, for sure. But let's just focus on quality football for now.

As long as the 75% rule is in place the stubborn 4 can block any propossal. If they went to even 66% we could get schedules that make sense.
