Sankey plans to implement a new SEC model for equitably scheduling all 16 teams to play each other much more frequently. Probably: 9 SEC games (4 or 5 at home in alternate years); no divisions or pods; 3 regular opponents (rivals) and rotate the other 12 opponents in 6 schedule slots (playing all 12 twice in 4 years); and the 2 teams with the best SEC W-L records play in the SEC title game. Playing 9 SEC and 3 non-SEC games still allows for 7-8 total home games and the FL-FSU, GA-GT, UK-UL, SC-CU rivalry games.

VS: 3 Regular + 6 Rotating (see AL & AR)
AL: AU, LS, TN + FL, AM, OK, MS, AR, SC
AL: AU, LS, TN + GA, TX, OM, KY, MO, VB
AR: AM, MO, TX + AL, LS, FL, OM, TN, SC
AR: AM, MO, TX + AU, OK, GA, MS, KY, VB
AU: AL, GA, MS
FL: GA, MS, OK
GA: AU, FL, SC
KY: SC, TN, VB
LS: AL, AM, OM
OM: LS, MS, MO
MS: AU, FL, OM
MO: AR, OK, OM
OK: FL, MO, TX
SC: GA, KY, VB
TN: AL, KY, VB
AM: AR, LS, TX
TX: AM, AR, OK
VB: KY, SC, TN



Do not like this because Alabama is the only program that will have 3 Big 6 or OU/Tx as regular opponents. Substitute MSU for LSU or Tenn.

Yes we should have AU TN and MSU as permanent rivals. MSU is our oldest and most traditional rival. Cannot stop that rivalry game.

10 SEC games will further help in being able to play others more frequently.
Even if you have 2 8 team divisions, you could play all 7 in your division, plus 3 from the opposite side.
