The SEC is transitioning to a nine-game model, effective in 2026. The end result is that everyone in the conference is going to have three "permanent" opponents, and then teams will rotate through the rest of the conference for the other six games.
The new model ensures that everyone will get to play everyone both home and away over a four-year rotation, but it is also going to put a strain on some longtime rivals.
While the SEC is going to officially announce everyone's three permanent opponents on Tuesday night, a leaked report has been released, and it would give Florida three permanent opponents that most of Gator Nation didn't ask for.
