Title: Cecil Hurt Shows 13 Team SEC Schedule Post by: Marshal Dillon on September 23, 2011, 10:47:32 AM I think this is very doable, not rocket science. :popcorn2:
Author's Note: The math was simple. NCAA Bylaw 17.9.5.2-c that requires "round-robin" regular-season competition, though, could require two additional West games, resulting in an unbalanced total (i.e., four teams in the West playing nine SEC games). Accounting for that (unless the bylaw is amended) isn't so simple. Thanks to readers who pointed that out. TUSCALOOSA | We don't know how many members the Southeastern Conference will have next season, but 13 seems like a possible number. So I decided to work out a feasible schedule based on 13 teams this morning. http://alabama.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1268887 Title: Re: Cecil Hurt Shows 13 Team SEC Schedule Post by: Chechem on September 23, 2011, 11:14:51 AM Thanks. Does look "doable".
Just one question. How is Texas A&M going to manage to get an open date before every SEC game?

There won't be much room for outside opponents that are higher ranked. We will be playing higher ranked teams in the sEC. RTR!

Texas A&M opens the Texas market up, which is gigantic. A&M has a huge alumni & fan base. Plus, it really breaks open the state for recruiting for the SEC. :dog: Title: Re: Cecil Hurt Shows 13 Team SEC Schedule Post by: Leroy on September 23, 2011, 03:33:09 PM What troubles me about it though is that every team in the West would not play every other team in the West.
