Yeah the schedule is so weak in the SEC that we don't even have a shot at making the title game.
Oh wait...

Your team can pick and choose their OOC schedule. Why hasn't your coach added more top tier competition in all 4 OOC games?

In the SEC in the future?
Looks at the furor that's already being caused by the permanent cross-divisional rival: some schools are locked into playing long-time also-rans, while others are locked into playing long-time powers in the SEC.
Now imagine a 9-game format: some schools play 4 home games and 5 away games, while others play 5 home games and 4 away games. It'll create arguments every year as to which SEC teams got easy breaks while others got unfair burdens in competing for divisional titles and bids for the SECCG....
The other arguments are for SEC schools that have established cross-conference rivalries. But that was the case back prior to the 12-game regular seasons: once everyone got the extra 12th game, they typically filled that slot with a cupcake home game. It gave everyone 7 home games each years...
A 9th SEC game will take away that 7th home game every year, although it WILL keep it every OTHER year. I still think a home conference game every 2 years versus the typical home game every yr vs a FCS patsy or SunBelt/Conf. USA patsy (almost same thing) won't be that much of a difference...

& taking 12 YEARS to cycle through the other division is less of an issue?
