SEC unveils new basketball schedule model

COLUMBIA, Mo. • The Southeastern Conference announced a change to men’s basketball scheduling for the 2015-16 season. Teams will now play three permanent opponents during the 18-game conference schedule, facing all three both at home and on the road each season.

Missouri's three permanent opponents will be Arkansas, Ole Miss and Texas A&M, which means every season under this model will include a trip to Fayetteville, Ark., Oxford, Miss., and College Station, Texas.

In addition to those six games, each SEC team will play one game against eight other SEC opponents and two games against two rotating SEC teams, both home and away.
