It would be unfair if the B1G played 9 league games while the SEC played 8 plus the usual 4 G5 teams. That might allow the CFP committee to overestimate the strength of SEC teams.
Games vs G5 schools are boring and hurt your overall value.
SEC teams aren't allowed to play 4 G5 teams so there is that. Plus the SEC is smart to schedule one of them later in the year. The season is long and about to get longer so having the "mini-bye" is smart business.
What wasn't smart is having them all on the same weekend but now they are spread out over about three weekends in November.
