I like the pod breakdown in a potential 20-team SEC. It keeps the 10 oldest SEC schools together in two pods and all expansion schools in the other two.
Who would a school play when their permanent opponent is in the 5 team pod they are scheduled to play that season? Giving each school two semi-permanent opponents would allow that 10th conference game to be filled every season. In a four-year period, you will have played both semi-permanents twice.

Thanks, I overlooked that. It looks like a great pod system and scheduling plan for what will be an inevitable expansion outcome.

No. Big 10 according Clemson insiders

The 10 game schedule prevents that unbalanced # conf. games issue.
However, I'm sticking with my problem that Ga. (GT) & Kent. (Loiusville) only has 1 slot for anybody while the rest have 2.
Only way around that is those 2 come to the SEC...but I HIGHLY DOUBT GT will ever get that chance (unsure of Louisville).

Yes, Georgia is pretty much the entire problem with 99% of all schedules.
They want Florida as a game every year, they want Auburn as a game every year, they only want 8 conference games because they also want Georgia Tech out of conference and they want to be able to have 7-8 games at home.
I don’t care either way, but they are the reason for most of the scheduling problems. Others may have 1 of those issues also.. but no one else has all of those issues.

What time was the announcement. I must have missed it...

Auburn - Deep South's Oldest Rivalry
Florida - World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party
GT - Clean Old Fashioned Hate
The SEC knows the 1st 2 won't be given up nor made as non-conf. games.
The people of Ga. won't give up the 3rd.
As to WLOCP, I want it to be on campus.
I don't know about 8, but I know 7 H games are pretty common.
That's why I (personally) see the trouble being a Dawg fan: expansion is inevitable, but (currently) there are 4 Eastern teams with ACC in-state rivals.
As to Kent., I don't know their # H game stance.

No, yall are the problems with the scheduling. We had it figured out till this BS expansion. Yall are causing problems.

Why would we need either of them? We already have both states.

TV ratings, advertising revenue, I hate them both but either Clem or F$U vs. the majority of the SEC are very compelling matchups and are going to create huge national tv numbers.

So I take it that this was fake news? I didn't see anything anywhere about them joining.
