Yeah, but they are going to 9 plus 1 from ACC, B1G, or B12. In 2030 UGA will play 9 conference games, Clemson, Georgia Tech, and the Ohio State.
Everyone will have to do something similar regardless of whether it is required by rule unless they want to miss the playoffs.
Yeah. Earlier in the year Sankey said he favored the 9 conference game schedule, but not at expense ofteams missing playoffs because there would be more losses. Enter SOS. What should worry everyone was that he also added he wanted 4+ auto bids. Don't trust either commish SEC or B1G. Also, this move seems to just be another step toward @HerbRedman 's discussion of a much larger playoff. I hate auto bids, conference champs auto bids, and going more than 12 teams in CFBP.
I used to hate the idea of an expanded playoffs, being somewhat of a traditionalist (I used to enjoy the fact that fans could debate who the NC was during the offseason) but I have come around. I now think it will be as entertaining as hell. And you are right, with a long tough schedule almost everyone will lose a game because they are tired or beat up, which will make it even harder to keep the numbers small (In the NFL only one team has gone undefeated in the regular season since 1972). They'll be a lot of great games, though, as teams really can't afford to play more than one patsy anymore. This will make the SOS measures even better as there will be a lot more meaningful non-conference games against other contenders - more and better data.
If I was rich I would bet as much money as I could that doesn’t end up being there non con schedule by the time 2030 rolls around.
Me too. Might be UGA that backs out this time, but going back to Richt teams keep canceling on Dawgs, and league office canceled 2. tOSU backed out of a series when Urban took over. I was looking forward to the matchup, and hopefully that schedule doesn't change.
This is funny, cause when I think of B1G (Michigan and tOSU especially) I think of Dennis. ACC I think of the McBoyles.
Who's the SEC in this scenario? Rickety Cricket?
Frank, SEC's always been Frank.
Of course, then there is Notre Dame all alone over there. Has to be Carmen. There is no other choice.
I think BIG and SEC will have 4 teams in a lot of years.
I was debating Frank or Mac. Mac for the religious aspect for the bible belt and the closeted homosexual aspect since y'all claim A&M now.
Shit, Notre Dame is Mac
Touche
