The SEC member schools (keep in mind, the conference is simply the collective will of the member institutions, with all ties broken by proximity to Birmingham) decided that they want to keep raking in the home revenue from cupcakes (LSU is as guilty of this as anyone--just look at next year) rather than expand to nine conference games and have to go on the road more often. To dress it up, they passed some non-binding UN resolution (pretty sure the conference has absolutely NO control over non-conference schedules) to play a "Big Four" conference school every year (phones are already ringing off the hooks at Syracuse) which, again, is pretty much what is happening already anyway (see Wisconsin). So basically, the SEC has officially announced that the global status quo will continue for the foreseeable future.
