Perhaps everyone voting will wake the frick up and understand the 3-6 preserves the tradition of the SEC AND welcomes the new teams joining us & and accounts for their rivalry games as well.
I think 9 games are off the table.
All of the solutions I see proposed destroy most of LSU's annual rivalry games. Which is a shite sandwich
The pods thing was better. Just 12 teams was better.

4 OOC games
We should trim the OOC games down to 2. One cupcake and one Power 5 and stop playing these FCS teams.
And expand the playoffs to at least 8 teams.

What schools are the strongest supporters of the 1-7 model?
That would be interesting to know…
I listened to a snippet of Dellinger from Cullotas show and he didnt name teams but he said the "Top half" wants a 9 game schedule and the "bottom half" wants a 8 game schedule. Make of that what you will. Only school he named was LSU who was solidly in the 9 game camp. I would think all of the Big 6 are in the 9 game camp

So...Historied SEC & NCAA rivalries have to be axed because others CAN'T decide on 3 must play teams?

& we've seen to keep things constant, you CAN'T play everybody in 4 years!

Pods WEREN'T ridiculous. They way people were trying to use them was. My plan kept ALL annual rivalries...with the only catch being 6 years for H/A with everbody instead of 4.
I'm sure almost everybody could accept 2 years as a trade off for keeping all important games.

Why can't an SEC rivalry against an SEC team be played yearly?

True. Less inventory for tv and less home games for the schools. Both the schools and espn lose in that scenario. It just sucks to miss out on some yearly rivals due to it.

I agree that conf. rivalries SHOULD BE PLAYED AT HOME (dump Jax.).
But Thankgiving week is COFH against GT.

All for doing something the SEC has never needed before, and still doesn’t need at all. Playing 15 different teams home and away in 4 years. It’s so stupid.

Agreed
The proposals on the table that finish home and away rotations in six years are already big improvements and don't destroy most of the rivalry games. The pods even feature functional divisions and allow for a proper champion to be determined

Not only that George but the LSU bama game has been a huge national rating aka money maker for the SEC so we are ditching that too

Someone thinks uga needs to play Mississippi state more often for some reason.

No real Georgia fan wants to ditch the WLOCP. The game loses a lot of luster and would become just another rivalry.
Also, you are smoking crack if you think Athens, Gainesville, or even Atlanta would allow the same level of tailgating as Jacksonville does.

Only if the model is 7-2. Nope! That is why it doesn't help the lower tier teams.

I’m fine with 3-6, but I also 100% agree playing every team once home and away every 4 years is imperative as well

You're wrong. Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, LSU, Ole Miss, Arkansas, Texas, and Texas A&M all have two or more games they want to play each season without question. Is that not enough for you?
Arkansas fans really just want to play LSU, Ole Miss, Texas, and Texas A&M annually. Really don’t care who else we play other than that.
