Good. They will likely win too.

FSU and Clemson both need to jump ship.

Whether they both go to the SEC or one goes Big 10.

There’s only 2 Power conferences left for football and if you think you are ‘big time’ and your name isn’t Notre Dame, you better be in one of them

So...SEC?

Do we have to take Clemson to keep the numbers even?

Who else would we want?

This is going to lead to conferences asking, why do we have Vandy, Rutgers, Northwestern, etc. in here getting the same share? Guess it’ll be the Super League in a few years and the rest as a feeder league

Did they not sign a contract?

I don’t want those crybabies in the SEC.

Football needs to go its own separate ways. Vandy doesn’t belong with the big boys.

I'm against adding FSU until someone specifically maps out in detail how the scheduling would work.

We can't even agree to schedules with 16 teams. And the networks aren't lining up to pay more money for the extra teams. There's no obvious upside

You can have a 20 team SEC, with a 10 game conference schedule, east and west divisions, preserve all rivalries and even restore some old ones.

Remove Mizzou (or Vandy).
Add Clemson, FSU, Ga Tech, Ok St, Miami

If you remove Mizzou then everyone's natural SEC or state rivalry is in the conference and they can play each year. If you remove Vandy, then the Vols just have to play them as an OOC game each year to preserve that rivalry, which isn't much of one.

It would be, hands down, the best conference in the nation, with the toughest schedule and most respect.

Here is what it would look like with Mizzou gone. It restores the UF v Auburn rivalry, so those teams have an extra SEC game, which could just be un-counted for SEC standings.


B = bye or OOC game.

Start the season on the last Saturday in August, go for 15 weeks, CCG games are done by Dec 10th roughly. Use the BCS numbers, top four, 4 travels to 1 and 3 travels to 2, play on Jan 1st, then title game on Jan 10th. That's your season. That's 12 games, 3 bye weeks. Or with two bye weeks the season ends one week sooner and the title game can be done before Spring semester starts.

ETA - I have USC playing itself, supposed to be a B, naturally. Forgot to add UK and Louisville rivalry. Just wouldn't be a conference game. One of the B's for UGA would be the FSU game.

We want FSU and Clemson fr fr

I don't really want UNC and UVA but I'd allow it just as an FU to the Big 10

SEC takes North Carolina, Duke, Georgia Tech and Miami.

Let Florida State go to the Big12 or American Athletic.
