Title: OK Vol fans....Your schedule preference is..........
Post by: droner on June 01, 2023, 03:48:54 EDT
Eight SEC games with one annual opponent or nine SEC games with three annual opponents?

I'm not sure which way I favor. Nine games in this conference would be rough but if the playoff includes 12 teams, that might balance it out. However, with 3 annual opponents in a nine game SEC schedule, you would only have 6 games to squeeze in everyone else.

I have always preferred less SEC games. I don't see anything to sway me to nine.

9 games because otherwise the 3rd Saturday in October disappears

Isn't that one game in an 8 game schedule UT vs. Bama, even though it might not be the third Saturday in October?

Doubt it. They’d almost certainly pair bammer and AU. We’d probably get vandy.

Looks like it would be Vandy
Bamer vs Auburn in that scenario

Well, that would be horrible to play Vandy rather than Bama.  :rolleyes:  :laugh:

Honestly, that wouldn't bother me. It will tough enough as it is with nine games. Give someone else the tough schedule for a change.

I like the 3-6 scenario, so long as the program is trending in the right direction.
