The SEC meetings are currently taking place in Destin, Florida, and there’s one massive debate raging — eight or nine? We’re talking about conference games, of course, with the looming addition of Texas and Oklahoma. The traditional east and west divisions will disappear, and the conference must decide on how they’ll be moving forward with a 16-team field.
The SEC has two options on the table.
A) Eight-game conference schedule with one permanent opponent and seven rotational opponents allowing for a more diverse selection of matchups.
B) Nine-game conference schedule with three permanent opponents and six rotational opponents, which would lock in more traditional matchups.
