The SEC announced Thursday afternoon that its league’s presidents have adopted a plan to play a 10-game, conference-only schedule this fall. That season will begin on Sept. 26 with the conference title game slated for Dec. 19.
This, of course, means that there will be no Louisville-Kentucky meeting on the gridiron in 2020, unless the two teams were paired against one another in a bowl game.
On Wednesday, the ACC opened the door for some its programs to maintain their highest-profile rivalry series by allowing for one week of non-conference play, so long as said game was played in the program’s home state.
