I wonder if it would be possible to review the permanent opponents to reassign them every 4 years to rebalance the teams. I think they play everybody at least twice by then. Probably not, but it would keep the parity.
This looks fair to me. I’ve got plenty of friends in Nashville and it’s one of my favorite cities in the country. Bama has to play AU, LSU and Vandy’s little sister = easier than AU’s common 3.
Well, Vandy owns your asses so it might be really tough for you.
Yeah, not familiar with what the SEC is driving for, so are they lining up 3 “permanent” teams within the SEC you play each year (your rival teams), 3 “tuneup games” of choice with an additional 6 rotating games within the SEC, for 12 total?
Yep. You rotate thru the entire conference every two years. For example, Georgia has still not been to aTm and they joined in 2012. That’s bullshit. And it won’t exist anymore.
Okay, that makes sense….although with a bye week, 3 tuneup games seems overkill….but playing in the SEC, 10 conference games could get a little grueling.
They aren’t all tuneup games. Several are in state rivals. UGA-GT, UF-FSU, SC- Clemson. And I dont see the B1G going to 10 either.
No, I don’t see the B1G moving from 9. Just look at Michigan’s first three: E Carolina, UNLV, Bowling Green…I’d call them tuneups (although it’s not unheard of for a FCS to beat a FBS). Iowa will always play in state Big 12 rival Iowa State. UGA playing Oregon at the beginning worked out well……for them.
But then he talked about NIL and paying players. He should've stopped with the schedule.
What tears? The only complaint I ever had was that the SEC loaded with AL alumni a few years ago kept FL off of AL schedule every chance they got. I want to play a strong schedule. I don’t like the rent a games. I know the real reason is to make money, but I think the idea of showing up with a 100,000 people to see LSU play New Mexico State is ridiculous. I would rather just give them the ticket money and not have a game. In fact that’s what i basically do.
This is unequivocally, patently false 😂
1137 is our Dudley Dudley do right, and we love him but lest we forget….. even as a law man, he said Miller the Killer is innocent.
Imagine his reaction if they got Texas, bama and UF…. ?? !!!! ???
I used to live in Orange Park Florida back in the early 80s and got a belly full of Florida fans. This was Charlie Pell/Galen Hall Era and they had enjoyed some success.
i remember until the middle teens of the 2000 the Commissioner and the Head of Officials were from AL.
I would love to see a tougher schedule than we got. I wanted either GA or FL and not Ole Miss. But Ole Miss may be really strong under Kiffin in a few years. I wanted A&M rather than TX because we recruit from the same areas of TX. I wanted GA and FL so we would get a presence in those states annually whether we play in BR or there for recruiting.I think BK wanted GA.
Change Tx to A&M and I will take it.
LSU will prbably beat AL more time in the next 10 years than either AU or TN and maybe more than both put together. TN is their 3rd like Miss State.
aTm too in the west, probably even more than the barn. I revel in their misery. But no misery makes me happier than gator misery.
Nope. That’s just history.. The number was done on you. You have one good season and you think you are back. You need to prove something first.
