Because we all know that eventually the major conferences will consolidate, the SEC should be on the front end of the transition. There is a good chance that we could move to four major conferences, each with an automatic bid for the inevitable 8-team playoff selection. So here is what I propose:
SEC adds Clemson and North Carolina and forms the following four divisions based on mascots:

The Tigers Division
Auburn
Clemson
LSU
Missouri

The Dogs Divison
Georgia
Mississippi State
Tennessee
Texas A&M

The Game Divison
Arkansas
Florida
Kentucky
South Carolina

The WTF Divison
Alabama
North Carolina
Ole Miss
Vanderbilt

Each team plays against its division members and one other division each year, which gives you seven league games. The eighth game will be played the week before the SEC Championship, and will be a match up of teams across divisions based on division ranking by record and head to head (#1 Tigers plays #1 Game, #1 Dogs plays #1 WTF, #2 Tiger vs #2 Game, etc).

The SEC Championship will be the two #1 teams who win the week before.

This will obviously be stacked so that Alabama has an easy path to the SEC Championship each year, but let's all admit that this is the desire of the SEC anyway. Also, I like the idea of us playing Tennessee and Ms State each year.

*****TLDR -- I get really bored when the Ags don't play on Saturdays.*****

Do wha?

The offseason is only like 6 weeks away broseph. Save this post till then.

I like your system. We could easily be in the WTF division if you had another dog

The ACC isn't going to lose either of those teams anytime soon

SEC adds Clemson

stopped reading there

Can you change "Tigers" to "Cats" and add Houston? That way any future coach is already SEC ready.

I like where your head is at op, but clemson won't be added because of the cocks and does the SEC really want to add a nc team about to get major punishment for ncaa violations. Pick two other teams to add.

also bama's division is way too tilted in their favor. What happens at end of season four team playoff for sec champ?

I was thinking the winner of each division went to the four team playoff.

you'll probably see a team like the sips added, with the exposure and following that they bring

I can't do this anymore.

Very clever OP

that is the real answer to the SEC schedule....

SEC will not add Clemson. The far more likely adds are either Duke/UNC/NCSt and VTech.

SEC will definitely not add another university from a state currently represented in the SEC. Thus, no Clemson, Georgia Tech, Florida State, Miami, Louisville, or sips.
Universities to add - probably one from Virginia and one from North Carolina.
Univ of Virginia would be the best choice from Virginia - much, much stronger academics and sports programs than Virginia Tech.
Duke or Univ of North Carolina would be the best choice from NC for the same reasons as above.

We should look forward to it. It is the only thing we seem to win.

I appreciate this thread.
