quote:

Four schools could lose games if a nine, plus-one schedule is approved in late July: Florida State, Georgia, West Virginia and Georgia Tech. It seems likely an eight, plus-two schedule would keep all 14 non-conference games among the three Power 5 conferences but would lead to the cancellations of non-conference games against other FBS and FCS opponents. Unless, of course, the conferences decide on an eight-game schedule with one FCS/Group of 5 school plus one against a Power 5 team.

If there was known truth to them, would they still be rumors?

It's been rumored that TCU might take the place of USC for Alabama, but nothing has been confirmed for example.

If USC can fly to Washington state, Utah, AZ, OR they can sure as heck make it to Dallas, Tx. So, it doesn't make sense, conference only! Oklahoma can fly to W.Va. or vice-versa. B.C. can fly to play MIami(fla.) If we're going to play at all, then play the whole da..schedule!

Wouldn’t mind adding Clemson, Georgia Tech, Miami and Florida State to the schedule that is likely to get canceled anyway.

Need same protocols for testing, travel, and all that too I imagine.

The main reason OOC games are getting canceled is for money. If other teams who schools do not have to pay can take their place I bet they find a way to play. The next question is who pays the directional school who's game got canceled.

I heard this directly from someone in the SEC office. ACC and Big 12 champ will get promoted to SEC. Last place of SEC gets relegated to Big 12, 2nd to last to the ACC.

This could be a beautiful thing. Think of potential matchups:

Alabama vs. Notre Dame
Georgia vs. Clemson
Florida vs. West Virginia
Texas A&M vs. Texas
