Looks good but just swap Arkansas and Texas A&M.

Should have gone to 9 games sooner.

It's not boring.

You have 6 other conference games.

You could play those 3 Texas, Bama and Florida in one season.

You play every team in a 4 year period.

I like it.

The geographical proximity makes sense, unlike the current SEC West.

That was the only change I felt would improve it as well

It is incredible the lengths they’ll go to keep Texas and A&M from playing each other annually. It’s like watching two gay kids be shipped into a straight relationship and forced to kiss during spin the bottle. They both don’t want it so much.

Every team who wins their pod is probably going to make a 12 team playoff.

Please drop the “Pod”. Four divisions; whatever the name :-)

These are the pods I had in mind except I was thinking A&M and Arkansas would be switched. LSU, Mississippi schools and Arkansas feels right for permanent opponents,

While it would be weird to not play Bama and Auburn every year we'd play them every other year. Presumably the schedule-makers would have enough sense to alternate the powers so one year you'd home / away with Bama OU and UGA and next year you'd be Auburn Texas and Florida. Play A&M every year and we're guaranteed multiple HUGE home games.

Arkansas
LSU
Missouri
Miss st
Ole miss
Oklahoma
Texas
Texas AM

Alabama
Auburn
Florida
Georgia
Kentucky
South Carolina
Tennessee
Vanderbilt

Play the 7 teams in your division then play 2 or 3 teams from cross division. You can then play 2-3 OOC games taking you to a total of 12 games.

Then top team from each division plays for SECCG

Then playoffs. If playoffs go to 8-12 teams you reduce regular season games by 1 or 2 games
