I wish the SEC would go to a 10 game conference schedule every year.

Agreed. No more silly cupcake games. Even inter-conference games are a joke. As a USC fan, I wish this weren't true, but the SEC is far and above the best conf. Let each conf decide their champion, then fight it out in an 8-team playoff.

Just know that those "cupcake games" pretty much provide all of the revenue for those cupcake schools' athletic programs.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

enjoy the 10 game SEC schedule this year as you won’t see it again.

economics won’t allow the SEC to beat each other up for 10 games and not have an undefeated contender for NCG.

a 2-3 loss game season might be the best record coming out of a 10 SEC game season, imo.

no more championship playoffs with 2 SEC teams qualifying.

that along with other lower tier bowl splits would cost the league to lose too much money to play a 10 conference game schedule every year.

plus no more big marquee out of conference games to fit in a 10 game schedule.

resulting in Big 12 or ACC basically having guaranteed slots for OU & Clemson every year.

SEC has always been all about MAX money, so this won’t happen again.

Those cupcakes are able to pay for their entire programs with a game or two against the SEC. they don’t generate enough money to have teams playing other cupcakes.
