SEC 10 Game Schedule - GREAT or detriment for lower teams?

Since Expansion every team has basically played the 8 game schedule + 4 OOC games every year. I was curious to see what teams really benefited from the OOC games to keep their bowl hopes alive. Usual suspects, and some surprising ones.
The question I ask... as I love the 10 SEC game schedule. If you are higher on this list do you want a 10 game schedule moving forward?

Bad for teams that lack quality depth, but good for fair conference schedules.

If I am Arkansas, do I want a 10 game schedule. Basically removes my chances for getting to a bowl game?

Yea, I don't think so. Besides, I don't even care about bowling if it's not something halfway decent.
I'm in favor of a 10 game schedule. I would rather play teams in the east more often. And like I said, it would make conference schedules more fair.

I would prefer a 13-game SEC schedule every year. frick the rest of college football. SEC games are better in every way.
The rest can measure up against the SEC champion in the playoffs every year.

I’d rather get drilled by SEC teams than lose these games.

A 10 game SEC schedule needs to be permanent with two OOC opponents.
The power conferences need to quit supporting the lower tier teams and conferences with those rent-a-wins.

I like the lack of cupcakes on the schedule. If we’re going to suck, then so be it. But I’m sick and tired of the scheduling gimmicks to scrape together 6 wins so we can play in the weed eater bowl.

They should go to a 13 conference game schedule with one OOC game against a Power 5 opponent and eliminate the Conference Championship Game entirely. One true champion.

For this season, I'd have to think the bowl eligibility requirements are not going to be the same. With fewer games, there's just no way around it unless a lot of bowl don't hold games this year. They won't have nearly enough teams to fill slots if they require 6 wins. Think about conferences like the Pac12 and Big10 playing 6 and 8 game seasons respectively.
Going forward, next year we won't have 10 SEC games so it's not going to matter ultimately. Although, I do think this year will be a great test run to maybe try to add more SEC games in the future.
