What would be interesting in the SEC would be to have only 7 SEC games and spread the games between both east and western divisions. In other words TEnnessees schedule might look like this Auburn, Alabama, Kentucky, LSU, Florida, Mississippi and Georgia. Seven SEC games.Period. Two top teams go to the playoffs and the BCS. OK then you could fill in the remaining five slots with top quality teams around the nation. For instance, UT might fill in the schedule above with teams like Nebraska, Pittsburg, Texas, Clemson, Notre Dame, etc….Maybe one minor team like UAB or Memphis. But to schedule like this would do two positive things. 1) It would break up the boredom of having to play the same SEC teams each year in the eastern and western divisions. 2)It would open the schedule up to a much more competitive and interesting 12 game schedule. These David and GOliath matchups -Lousiana-Monroe, ARkansas STate, etc.–do very little to enhance the Tennessee program. Lets put the program in overdrive and go big time!

The Nebraska games have not gone so well in the past…I’d like to forget some of those games. The Tennessee vs. Texas would be the most interesting match up for me, two programs that dominate their states and have a huge fan base. The games against UCLA, Oregon, and Cal are all of the same thread-they do not help you if you win, but they will kill you if you lose. I’m looking forward to UT scheduling some games against opponents that are well known and could give us a boost with a win such as a Michigan, Nebraska, or Oklahoma.
