June 15, 20232 yr florida and georgia at dkr is the big payout 2 name-brand national-title schools IN CONFERENCE at dkr in the same season is the reason for this move 4 homers for us v. 3 for 0u reads to me like a fiscal thing..... we're getting paid back for paying for their buyout.... however no tears for them they get bammer at home they also get vols 2 name-brand national-title schools IN CONFERENCE in Norman the revenue bonus for us is the klan aggy game they get cock, we get ken-tuck-ee, that's a wash klan aggy is the first payment for our funding their buyout i expect 3 or 4 more of these 'payments' over the next 10 years

After that, who knows. Was thinking that, but that would mean we aren't playing Ole Miss, LSU, Tennessee, etc for two years.

I think anyone expecting any form of symmetry between 2024 and 2025 is going to be disappointed. The SEC has shown historically that they'll do whatever the hell they want with scheduling, no matter who thinks it makes sense. I expect 2025 to either be the launch of 9 game schedules or another 8 games of random shitshow.

June 15, 20232 yr 21 minutes ago, ClubWhatever said: I betcha they stay with 8. If the championship is to be determined by the top 2 teams, wouldn’t playing 9 games help facilitate this format better?
June 15, 20232 yr Im betting they go to 9 in 2025. Most teams got some semblance of their 3 permanent rivals on the 2024 schedule. Edited June 15, 20232 yr by Catdaddyhorn

I just know that the league wants everyone to play the new teams the first two years. I think the SEC is going to give us OU and aggy every year they possibly can. Arky may or may not get that game every season until we go to 9.

Am I the only one that thinks that 2024 is a "one-off" because the B1G & the SEC are still (off the record, through backchannels) negotiating with ACC member institutions and they know that enough of them will eject in the next 12 months to give them optimism as a collective of defeating the GOR in court?

Two problems with that: 1) They're getting a lot of pressure from other conferences and the media now about the 8 game issue. There is a credible argument to be made that teams playing 9 games conference schedules should and will be given a preference in the 12 team CFP. Reasoning for that is competitiveness of schedule. Is a 3 loss OSU team in 2025 that lost to Texas, USC and Michigan a worse candidate for the final CFP spot than a 3 loss Alabama team that lost to Georgia, LSU and Ole Miss? Who knows, but if OSU played 9 conference games and had 2 FBS wins OOC and Bama played only 8 conference opponents, 3 OOC lightweights and an FCS program, the committee is going to be picking the Big 10 program every time going forward. Everyone is going to be putting pressure on the SEC to comply and the ACC, a band of imbeciles only hiding in the shadows because the Pac X is on another level, is assuredly going to get repeatedly punished. The only chances an 8 conference game ACC team has of making the playoffs is winning the league or being Florida State and going 11-2 or better with a title game loss and UF win. Maybe the same is true for Clemson if South Carolina is bizarrely good one year. 2) Money. It's publicly acknowledged that the SEC is talking to their "media partners" about future changes in their inventory. There isn't a credible argument anyone can make about 16 games against FCS schools and the likes of ULM being more valuable than 8 more in-conference games in terms of viewership and ad dollars. The difference in what anyone makes in the televising of Arkansas vs. Arkansas Pine Bluff instead of, say, Arkansas versus Oklahoma as a 9th conference game in 2024 would legitimately be millions, if not tens of millions of dollars. That's just a simple match-up whereas some of the 8 additional match-ups could be huge games.

That's just a simple match-up whereas some of the 8 additional match-ups could be huge games. If only having 8 conference games hasn't hurt the SEC in getting playoff teams into a 4 team field, I can't imagine it is going to be more difficult in a 12 team field. This conference has always gotten the benefit of the doubt with their bullshit scheduling, and that was before adding two bluebloods into the mix and dispatching with their imbalanced divisional matchups. What is going to be interesting to me is how the polls work going forward. Going back as far as I can remember, the polls have always had their own sort of internal logic based on teams needing to go undefeated as the standard to win a national championship. They've always put more emphasis on punishing losing teams and rewarding the winners, regardless of the competition. There needs to be a recalibration of this mindset that the dolt sportswriters and whoever the fuck fills out the coach's ballots are probably incapable of. I suppose the polls should be meaningless going forward when they used to mean everything, but I still wonder how they factor into playoff team selection. So to me, the question isn't a 3 loss Ohio State vs. Bama (they're both likely getting in), it's one of them against a one loss Boise State who hasn't played anybody. With regard to your second point, if the networks aren't willing to pony up more cash (which they haven't done yet) for more games and it's not impacting the playoff selection, what is the motivation? And I ask that as someone who is in favor of the 9 game schedule. I also wonder if there isn't a law of diminishing returns somewhere here. Sure, Arkansas v. Oklahoma is worth X more than Arkansas v. Pine Bluff, but not if it's being played on the SEC channel at the same time as Tenn v. Texas. I'm too lazy to do the math on just how many truly marquee games there are, but just browsing through the schedule it's staggering how many great matchups there are across the board. I'm all for having more of them, but I don't know how much it moves the needle when there are already so many good games.

There are literally houses divided on Thanksgiving, which is what this game is all about. the game should be T+2 and kick at 4pm after the michigan/tosu game ends in years played at pyle, leave at 10am from wherever you are and you're at the tailgate by 1pm latest, and plenty of time to get to austin or houston afterwards; dallasites probably heading to either before heading home sunday sure houses divided, but every other year at home, season holders dont' get to have the holiday meal - sure the tailgate is great - but thursday itself is now an nfl day triple: t+2 = brilliant

I think we’ll play aggy on Black Friday in primetime. I’m sure the Iron Bowl will hold on to Saturday night. I hope ESPN doesn’t press the issue. The NFL owns Thanksgiving. They’d get a good number on the first game, but it would taper off after that.

We make a bunch of money at home playing directional schools, and we are trying to play Miami now and again, because we need to vastly improve our south Florida recruiting. There are always $$ issues that lead us to not want nine conference games. Edited June 16, 20232 yr by Gatorubet
