With 9 SEC games next year Danny should drop and replace the GT game. Scheduled a cupcake for the replacement. Some of the other SEC schools are doing the same. I know Bama just dropped USF and replaced them with Chattanooga. Give yourself a level playing field with rest of the conference.

Bama is still playing Florida State out of conference next year, but they moved the USF game to 2032. So Bama is still playing 10 P4 teams. We however, if we did as you suggest, would be p*ssing out to greater degree.

The SEC is requiring its members to play a P4 team in the non-conference.

What does the big ten do? Serious question. I don't know. What I do believe is that the schools in the SEC have a much harder row to hoe at this point in time so I'd hope they also have a P4 requirement. If not, the SEC should most definitely change that rule.

Who says that? We are even more suspect next year.

Based on what? Georgia Tech is pretty damn suspect w/ 99% of their offense being gone. Meaning Haynes King is gone

We have to play a power 4 opponent every year. Just like every ACC team, maybe Big 12 team. Now it’s time to for the B1G to nut up and require the same for their league. Especially after the all bs their coaches have been talking .

The Big Ten does not require it, although some programs still do. Ohio St, Oregon, and Michigan all did this year. Indiana did not.

Not saying we don’t win, but he’s putting it as one.

Steve Sarkisian said as much this week - even called IU out on them scheduling the likes of Old Dominion and Kennesaw State this year.
B1G is a 9 game schedule, but NO mandate on P4 OOC opponents...IU played ODU, K St, and Indiana State.

For all their bull$hit from Petitti and Cignetti in the offseason and Lanning a few weeks ago, they better sack up and get that Power 4 requirement. Better yet, let’s just settle this on the field w/ a SEC/B1G challenge. I will continue to beat this drum

If you want to avoid competition then go join the Sunbelt or OVC. That seems to be where most of our wins come from anyway.

If I didn't know better, it almost seems they are trying to limit the number of SEC teams in the playoffs. However, there's serious money involved so that's not the case. Only leaves one answer....the folks making these decisions for the SEC are stupid.

Bamas most important recruiting area isn’t Tampa. Also when we drop them they’ll drop the return to Neyland which will eliminate a classic old time SEC match.
