Wow.

0.6% chance of winning out. And I'll take a 7.7% chance of winning the conference. That's better than the 7.1% chance if you just take a random draw from the 14 teams.

 

[Crazy Cotton]

that strength of schedule is just stupid. We're 34, playing in the west, and the 5 top schedules are pac 10?

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

Pac-12 plays 9 conference games, as opposed to 8 for SEC. It will probably even out as the season goes on.

SEC will probably go to 9 conference games before long. That combined with the requirement to play one Big 5 team every year will make other OOC teams we play to be very selective...almost certain predictable wins, if that's possible.

 

[Miss.Stake]

The mandated power conference game just ensured the SEC will not go to 9 conference games any time soon....

 

[HD6]

This is correct.

 

[uptowndawg]

I'm trying to find where we have 12.1 games on our schedule.

 

[Resolved]

I'm trying to find where we have 12.1 games on our schedule.

I think we play Southern one more quarter at some point during the season.

 

[patdog]

Only way the SEC goes to 9 games ever is if we start getting deserving teams left out of the 4-team playoff. The one Big 5 team mandate was put in place to avoid the need to go to a 9-game schedule.

 

[was21]

wasn't aware of that...learn something new every day

The .1 takes into effect our chances of playing in the SEC Championship game.
