Should the SEC adopt a 9 game conference schedule?

[socaljim242]

So again we are back to just because your conference was stupid enough to add a 9th game mine should be forced to just 'cuz.

Stupid or actually work a schedule were teams in the conference actually play each other more than once every five years? Heck A&M hasn't even played Georgia and they have been in the same conference for six seasons. We should follow that just for the advantage ? I gotta watch USC play Azuza Pacific in November and USC wont play Washington but once every six years or so? No thanks. I'd rather lose out than water down the schedules because whos to say if everyone dropped one to go to eight that the SEC wont go to seven.

No we are back to you avoiding.The fact that removing the guaranteed conference loss.Gives a false perception in regards to conference SOS,within the ranking systems and bowl eligibility. If we want a true champion theres basically two options.P5's play either an 8 game conference schedule.Or a 9 game conference schedule.And keep it uniform.Or go to an 8 game play off with conference champion auto bids

I'm not sure some see the difference between playing an FCS/Mid Major early on a 3 game OOC schedule.And playing a Mid Major early and an FCS in November on a 4 game OOC schedule.Or get the concept of what a 9 game conference schedule holds.In regards to guaranteed loss distribution



If SC played an FCS school instead of ND or a conference opponent late in the season.They would be crucified for it

And when you are playing OOC cupcakes they are playing OOC rivals or conference opponents.

There is absolutely no difference in when you play your cupcake as long as everybody is playing them

No they aren't. They have 4 OOC games. They are playing cupcakes in both September and November.

Wrong. What is being said is that all P5 conferences should play the same number of conference games. It doesn't matter if everyone plays 8 or 9, just that each conference to play the same number. Really not sure what's so difficult to understand.

By their own fans and alumni as much as anyone.

Completely agree it wouldn't just be the media,Pollsters or committee crucifying them.It would be everyone all the way down to the fans.I don't even want to see them play an FCS in September

I witched to a glass bowl.You ready for the cotton mouth bowl Wamu

I got some Pre 98 Bubba Kush from my dispensary the other day. Not the Sticky Icky though, I picked up a refill for my pen.

We don't play PAC-12 or Big Slow teams OOC so our cupcakes are limited

I've been sticking to the girl scout cookie.But I may be too superstitious to change it up.Hell I haven't shaved since the ND loss.But they keep winning overtime I think about shaving

So petition your conference to go back to eight and quit bitching about the SEC & ACC. Y'all were the ones who changed, not us.

The irony would be SC is 1-0 against Clemson.Final score 30-0 SC

You realize that 3 of the 5 conferences play a 9 game schedule, right? Perhaps the SEC and ACC should consider joining the current trend.

Of course, that would cut down on each conferences guaranteed wins, so we know they won't have the balls to do it.

Try leaving Cornbread County for once.

Ummm we scheduled Alabama and they dodged us to play whores like you and USC.

"Whores like us?"

Hmph. Still butt hurt, I see from your Rose Bowl team and other squad that we kicked
the dog shit out of in back-to-back seasons. 30-3 in East Lansing and 30-7 in Tally.

I remember two items from those games. The first one came in the first game when your
Coach, George Perles remarked that he had never in his entire career seen a total team where
everybody could run and jump.

The other remark came in the 2nd year, When Deion grabbed Andre Rison and started shaking
him and yelling at the official..."This guy is an imposter...this guy is an imposter. Andre is an
All-American...who is this guy?"

We whores have won 85.6 % of all of our games vs the Big10. (38-6-1)

We're only 83.0% vs the 1-AA's or below. (ROTFLMFAO)

You leave the ACC out of this. We play more games vs the other P5 leagues than anybody.

14 ACC teams played 22 ooc games this year vs P5 teams. 12 Pac12 teams played 10 ooc games
vs P5 teams this year. You could at least get everybody in your league to schedule 1 game anyway.
4 of your teams played NONE! Washington State, Utah, Colorado and Arizona.

You should be bitching at those folks, because they affect the overall quality of your entire league
and put the entire Pac12 behind the 8-ball.
