It will be a 10 plus 1. With 1 nonconference game.

I guess I don't understand this conference-only games format. What does this have to do with the spread or the non-spread of the virus?? Why can't the SEC and ACC have some inter-conference, intra-state games? There is already four of those games on the schedule already.

Let me guess, A&M gets fricked on the JerryWorld deal by having to play one "home game" there.

The SEC can enforce uniform standards across all conference members.

I'd guess they do the same as the ACC with 10+1 and a similar "it has to be in your state" rule or something.

no doubt. It would be nice to keep LSU's Texas game this year.

Georgia gets to side-step that week 2 loss to East Tennessee State.


In all seriousness. I hate it that the FCS budgets are going to take a hard hit from this. ETSU dropped football from 2004-2014 because it was such a large expense. Hate to see how many FCS teams fold because of this.

Watch them refuse to reschedule the trip to Baton Rouge in any way, shape or form.

The SEC and ACC could agree on a uniform standard format. Their standards and the SEC's standard would be similar already, I would think.

We're not giving up an additional home game for them. (the next time we play, if ever in the regular season, would be in Austin)

In all seriousness, Aggie is getting the shaft. Their schedule was set up perfectly.

Cmon Ross, you’re better than this...

Seems silly for UGA/GT, Uf/FSU, Louis/Kent, and Clem/SCU not to play. same state, same reality.
