SEC leaning towards 1 division

interesting.....

Old news. Ross Dellenger reported this back in May.

Round robin 15 game SEC schedule.

So, the 2 "best" play for the SEC Championship?

With a 16-team conference, any system will be unwieldy. Will permanent opponents be a thing of the past? Just a pure rotation?

Interesting times.

Yes. If in place this year that would be a TN/GA rematch. This is a cream rises to the top model. No more Cinderella's like 2001 LSU.

Probably 9 game schedule with 3 permanents. Each team could have their own custom setup

I think with a 12 team playoff you are going to eventually see conference championship games go by the wayside

Ping pong balls to set the schedule each year.

Bama will get lucky and always get Auburn, Tennessee, and the 7 worst teams from the previous year.

It’s a flawed approach. What if we had not played Tennessee and 2nd place tied records at 7-1 SEC? How do you settle, common opponents, schedule strength, rankings? No answer will be as good as head to head or division record.

That doesn't seem exactly workable when every team's "setup" is interdependent on every other team's setup.
