I have always thought it was an advantage to the SEC and ACC to only have 8 Conference games and compared to the Big 10 they ninth game played by the Big 10 was replaced by an FCS game. Looking at how the committee made it selections there was no repercussions from this type of scheduling.
This year both the SEC and ACC have 10 Conference Games to the 8 of the Big10 and 9 in the Big12. It will be interesting to see how the committees weigh in on this. Also with no out of conference games how will they determine how teams compare from one conference to the next.
I have also thought that in the BIG there were very few breaks in the season as most bye weeks were early on and then would get 9 BIG games in nine to ten weeks. The SEC seemed to spread things out more but this year it will be 10 SEC games in 11 weeks. Will SEC teams lay an egg similar to what the Buckeyes have done.
Alabama has UK between LSU and Auburn.
UGA has UK between BAMA and FL. FL has Mizzou between UGA and LSU LSU will get Auburn Bama the Arky and TAM
I can see a 2 loss champion coming for the SEC

Did you see what they did to Arkansas? Have mercy what a schedule - they have LSU, Alabama, Auburn, A+M and the Mississippi schools plus the drew Georgia and Florida from the other division. They also play Tennessee and Missouri. They may wish they all got COVID by the time they get to their final game...Alabama.

Brutal. They will be too beat up to be anybodies spoiler. I checked into the schedules again and the SEC plays 10 games in 10 weeks. Once we get past this week the football Saturdays will start to be fun again.

Personal foul, "targeting". 15 yards, automatic first down.

I'm hearing Ohio State may actually play Friday, October 23 - if so I'm going to have a serious hangover on my birthday! Originally they were playing Illinois on a Friday to kickoff the season off, maybe they're going to just move it back 7 weeks?

For the SEC, I only see Alabama with a real shot at the playoffs...
Why believe in Georgia? Why believe in Florida? Why believe in Texas A&M?
