Houston Chronicle: Texas & OU reach out to SEC to join conference

[Rekkapryde]

How would out of pod games rotate? Alabama and Tennessee have to play every year I believe.

things change

play all games in your pod - 3 games
rotate a pod every year - 4 games
1 game from the other 2 pods based on strength of schedule from previous year like the NFL does - 2 games
3 remaining games for cupcakes, other conferences, mid major games, etc.

it's supposed to goto 12 I thought.

but ND plays in the ACC for everything else full time. They don't want to do Big 10 for some odd reason and we know they aint' doing the SEC, sooooo.....

I don't think they're interested in joining a conference unless they have to. So unless they're shut out of the playoffs (unlikely) or the tv contract doesn't match their perceived value (possible) they aren't going to give up their brand and identity.

Vandy, Kentucky, Arky, and Mizzou. The SEC Ass division

shyt is like relegation in soccer and shyt.

SEC Relegation Division.

Since the SEC want to make Kentucky a darling we should trade places with them. I will be pleased with that. They (UK) make tons a money in basketball them and Florida would be big time.

no doubt, but forcing them to would make them adjust.

and them being independent in everything is not gonna ride either, so if the ACC says join fully or bounce completely, then they'd run to the Big 10 who probably would give the same ultimatum if they don't want to give up their NBC deal to join. That special treatment shyt broke the SWC and Big 12 apart with Texas and their shenanigans.

LSU and Alabama aren't really traditional rivals the way UT and Alabama are - they'll try to hold on to that game.

Facts

 

[smitty22]

We would align up with the Pac12 since we already have a alliance with them. If those schools are so special, tell the SEC to take them too .

fam said he ain't having it

 

[Numpsay]

Arky belongs in the pod with UT, A&M and OU. Call it the SWC pod, if not Arky then Mizzou and call it the Big 12 pod

Alabama Auburn and Tennessee should all be in the same pod.

Florida and Georgia in the same pod.

Everyone else can be thrown in wherever.

ND gonna have to get with the program or continue to fall behind

They already gonna have a harder time making the new playoffs and it’s only gonna get worse for them.

It’s all about the money with them tho. So oh well.
