re: If SEC stays with 8 team SEC schedule for 2025

1. The current SEC schedule calls for 8 SEC games per year. Each school has ONE permanent opponent and rotates everyone else playing each of those teams every other year. There are NOT 9 schools ready to vote to go to a 9 SEC game schedule mainly because ESPN/ABC/Disney will not pay us extra for going to 9 SEC games annually.
2. Currently, LSU has ONE permanent opponent and that is A&M. We will play the Ags every season.
3. In the current setup, LSU plays Carolina, OMiss, Florida, Alabama, Vandy, Arkansas, and Oklahoma in even years (2024) and UK, Tennessee, Texass, Georgia, Auburn, State, and Mizzou in odd (2025) years.
4. Only 5 SEC schools voted to play 9 SEC games. You need at least 9 schools to vote to move to 9 games.

The only thing that has been determined is that there will be en eight-game conference schedule in 2024. It would seem very unlikely that there will be just one permanent opponent.
How many times do we have to hear "The Third Saturday in October" and "The Iron Bowl?" Those aren't going away.

That’s an excuse. The cowards don’t want to give up their guaranteed win against Delaware State. And Saban didn’t like that his 3 permanents didn’t include Vanderbilt so he led the charge against it, after saying for years he was for a 9 game conference schedule.

There is no permanent setup for 2024. It is a one-time format until they vote on 9 SEC games.
OU and UT are permanent opponents, but SEC is not giving up the UT-A&M rivalry either.

Is that was the case, why would they move that game away from thanksgiving weekend?
