A 9-Game SEC Schedule?


I think we'll eventually do it, which will be good for making the conference schedules more fair, making it harder for teams to skate through with nothing but bottom feeders from the other division like the last couple of years with Georgia and Alabama. I just hope we don't stop scheduling good non-conference games when it happens. There's no reason why we'd have to. We'd have five home SEC games one year and four the next. We could do home and home games with high-profile teams, playing the road game in the years we have five home SEC games. Of course, we could do neutral site games, too, which can be almost as good as a home game from a financial standpoint. I'd love to see us do a home and home game with the road game in the year we have five home SEC games, and a neutral site game in the years we have only four home SEC games. That would be 7 home games half the time and nearly 7 (6 plus a neutral site) the other half. That way, we'd only have one or two cupcakes a year. No one could disparage those schedules, even if they had an anti-SEC agenda. It would make it harder for a team to go undefeated or have only one loss, but with the 4-team playoff, it wouldn't be necessary like it (almost<g>) always is now.
