Dumb.
Or, must be nice to play only 8 conf games.
This year. But this is the first year where teams like ga and Bama finally play each other in the regular season only because of the 12 team playoff.It's much easier to play only Power 4 games which most SEC teams do (not Georgia, I will say though).
SEC teams play just as many if not more 1-AA and lower G5 teams as other conferences do. You can thank them only having 8 conference games for that possibility of being able to slide another P4 game on the schedule. A lot of that involves rivalries -- Georgia-GA Tech, Florida-Florida State, So Car-Clemson -- and those made-for-TV season-openers sponsored by Chic Fil-A.It's much easier to play only Power 4 games which most SEC teams do (not Georgia, I will say though).
