Vote to keep 8 game schedule was 13-1

Really?


Yes. 6 times in 13 years. We are certainly seeing them more frequently now then we had in awhile.

And we won't schedule them for future games with uncertainty in SEC schedules. If we go to 9 games this game won't be played so long as we still have FSU on the schedule.

No, you're not. Ten years ago isn't now. And no, you won't be scheduling them more often regardless of whether or not we go to 9 conference games. You've already got 4 OOC games scheduled for 2014 (Idaho, E. Michigan, E. Kentucky, FSU), and Miami already has four scheduled for 2016 (Toledo, FAMU, Notre Dame, FAU). So no, going to 9 games has nothing to do with it. Notre Dame contracting for ACC games, however, may affect it from Miami's end.
