At the ACC spring meetings Wednesday, FSU athletics director Randy Spetman told the Orlando Sentinel that talks between the schools about a neutral-site 2016 game are "moving along."

"The AD at Georgia just doesn't know if he has room to put it in there," Spetman said, referring to UGA athletics director Greg McGarity.

Later this month, McGarity should know for sure. During their spring meetings in Destin at the end of May, SEC officials are expected to make a decision on playing a nine-game conference schedule. Like the ACC, the SEC currently plays just eight conference games. That allows both conference's member schools to schedule four non-conference games during a given season.

Texas A&M will host ULM at Kyle Field in College Station on Nov. 15, 2014. The Aggies will pay the Warhawks a $1.1 million guarantee for the game.

2015-16 Texas A&M-USC Series Never Finalized

Back in 2009, then Texas A&M Director of Athletics Bill Byrne announced that the Aggies were “finalizing a series with USC for the 2015 and 2016 seasons.” To date, a contract has not been completed for that series.

A spokesman for the USC athletic department told us last night that “there were very preliminary discussions between the schools, but nothing ever came of it.” Officials at Texas A&M have not yet returned a request for comment.

The same 2009 release also stated that Texas A&M would travel to Oregon in 2018 and host the Ducks in 2019. An Oregon official confirmed there is a signed contract and that the games are currently scheduled for Sept. 15, 2018 in Eugene and Sept. 14, 2019 in College Station.

The Aggies will host Louisiana Tech on Sept. 10, 2016 and New Mexico on Nov. 11, 2017. Tech will receive $200,000 for their contest, while New Mexico will get a cool $1 million.

Thanks $Bill. Way to announce a game we had no deal for. Glad that arse is gone.
