If we can't continue UF vs LSU as a perm slot, I hope we can restart UF vs Auburn

More than likely Auburn will play Bama, Georgia, and Tennessee/LSU/ Florida because we are alpha af

Beauty of this is even if someone is not a permanent you'll still play them 2 out of every 4 years.

I would strongly prefer Florida or Auburn

People who suffered through the 90s then lived through all of the battles with Auburn and Florida will 100% agree with this. I can't stand not playing both every year.

Do we get Alabama, Georgia, and Florida? Tennessee?

Or Mississippi State?

Arkansas will end up with Texas, Oklahoma and 8-4 simply because they'll need a 3 for Oklahoma and they'll go off geography for Arkansas anyway.

Wish it was LSU, Ole Miss and Tennessee

Wish they would go back to an east-west. 7 division games, rotate the other 2.

The should reveal the pussy schools who opposed a 9 game schedule.


I REALLY don't think teams like Vandy, UK and Miss St potentially opposing 9 games makes them pussy schools. They are fighting for bowl games in the current system and this just made it even harder

Good. I know UK was against it, but TAM has still never been to Lexington to play.

Could keep some teams out of the playoffs.
Not really, they are most likely going to go to the guaranteed numbers from each conference.

Yea. Maybe. We're going to lose some meaningful games. There is no perfect way to do it.

For what it’s worth, like many I’m happy to see this so we can see all our conference opponents more regularly.

But since we also have Clemson every year I am worried about the more novel OCC opponents currently on future schedules. For example, we currently have home and homes with VT and Miami. I’d love to go to both of those away games. I’m not sure they survive though.
