Would it be possible, or semi-possible for all the major teams to play all their OOC games the same weeks? The B1G is notorious for all their OCC games first then the entire B1G season, while I know a lot of conferences do them throughout the season.

This would make it easier for everyone but I'm sure smarter people than me have said this before

with the number of big time OOC rivalry games at the end of the year the SEC/ACC has, I don't see any way that could be accomplished. SC/CU, UGA/GT, UF/FSU are gonna go down in late november after everyone else has their OOC schedule rapped up.

Dropping Oregon and USC is a strong indication that the SEC will probably be going to a 9 game schedule very soon.

As a result, the Aggies will want to lower their sights to 2nd. tier OOC BCS programs to lighten their overall load in seasons where they will be matched up against one of the big-3 programs from the SEC East.

In seasons when they get Tennessee, Missouri, Vanderbilt, or Kentucky, (traditional matchups Bama is well known for) they could then schedule a 1st-tier OOC BCS program.
