Let’s crowdsource permanent opponents.

We all know pods are gay and divisions are unworkable with 16 teams. There are two models that work:
1. Three permanent opponents, six rotating opponents. 9 conference games, everyone plays home and away every 4 years at most, up to three rivalries are protected.
2. Five permanent opponents, five rotating opponents. 10 conference games, everyone plays home and away every 4 years at most, up to five rivalries are protected.
Crowdsourcing this is easy. Just indicate:
1. Your favorite team
2. Your five most preferred permanent opponents, ranked in order
3. Whether you’d rather the 3+6 or 5+5 model
Example:
Favorite Team: LSU
Preferred Opponents: (1) Texas A&M, (2) Florida, (3) Alabama, (4) Ole Miss, (5) Arkansas
Preferred Model: 5+5
I’m pretty sure if we get enough entries, we could make a schedule that everyone would be excited for, and we could do away with this silly nonsense about pods or divisions or whatever.

Whatever it takes to get 10 conference games.
I'm done with shitty non conference payout games.

It's extremely hard to believe that the cupcake games are going to continue to exist in this era. There's more money in showing more SEC matchups even if it means lower bowl revenue.

We should do 11 conference games 1 P5 OOC
7 division games
4 cross division
1 OOC P5
See every SEC team home and away in 4 years

I want LSU and Ark every year. I would be fine playing the sips too, but not a priority.
I also want a setup where we don't go more than 4 years without playing a league team.
Somebody get working on that.

That’s where I am.
As for the rest ... you can draw names at random, and I’m good with the picks.
Any SEC team is fine by me.

Not reading any of these ideas about schedules. Give me Bama, UGA, Gator and 10RC for Auburn or I reject your expansion. Would love to keep LSU, but they are first man out. Straight don't care about playing the newbies. Leave us out until we play them in ATL.

1. Obvious
2. UTk; AU; MSU; LSU; don't care but wouldn't mind a new E-W rivalry with OU or the real UT
3. I'd rather a 4+6 model. 3 Pod teams+1 perm rival+6 rotating teams

The only viable pod options are what either I’ve proposed or, forgive me, dudebro has proposed. Both have six perms. Either rotate the last three on a nine game conference schedule where each team plays one per pod or you pair pods and basically have rotating divisions.

You mean the one that was UT when Texass was Mexico.
Oh my bad...you're one of those "real Bama fans" that has never seen a Bama game other than on TV.

Lol. No you would not.
There’s something called google. And you’d show up as “deathly allergic to the sips” when your name pops up.
I fricking love this bar.
