Really? I think it’s quite favorable. Could have been a lot worse

Same. I mean really AL and GA are the only elite teams we play. The other teams range from meh to good. All of those are easily winnable. Really no different than this year's schedule.

I am just happy that other teams get to experience what we typically do. I don't want easier schedules, I want more parity. I love great matchups and definitely don't want them to go away. I almost pity Georgia for their weak sauce schedule this year.

Resolidified my favorability toward the 8 game schedule

I really think this is tough enough and would prefer to see noncon variety than a 9th SEC game but ik everything is about money nowadays...

This is what I don't understand a lot of Vol Fans want to continue Alabama Florida and Georgia but if we lose all three you will cry and complain. I care more about wins and would rather play them in the SEC championship. I don't want to hear no crying if we lose. What's more important continue to play the two best teams in America every year plus Florida or win as much as possible.

I dont care either way about UF or UGA. However, until the record is equal again, i want to play Bama every season. Twice if possible

Absolutely brutal schedule trips to Arky and OU and Georgia. I wouldn’t have minded if we dropped Florida or Georgia off the schedule since we will play Bama every year. Don’t you peeps be upset if we go 8-4 or 7-5 next season with that schedule it’s possible.

This schedule for 2024 year simply underlines what I have been saying all along about the folly of going to 9 games. If the SEC gets "shamed" into a 9 game schedule in the following years, blame no one but our own foolishness.....and the begging by the Big Ten and rest of the non-SEC folks for our conference to fall for this. The SEC haters out there know that adding a ninth game almost insures that we lose at least one playoff entry almost every single year. Just look back at 2020 from the pandemic and the 10 game temp schedule. Only FIVE teams finished over .500, two teams were at .500 and Seven teams finished below .500. It is obvious we will beat ourselves up, lose more games, and eliminate a playoff contender almost yearly. Then, because of the arms race in this conference, more coaches fired, coaching salaries continue to spiral, and as such could be risky for a healthy conference whom all wish to copy. This schedule upcoming will be a real test. No need for a 9th game.

The playoffs are going to 12 games so an sec team with 3 losses will get in. The main problem will be what's left of the teams
