very intrigued how the playoff committee will determine the teams based on each conference doing conference only...based on the eye test I guess

So nothing different than usual

Does Vegas cancel the bets people made on o/u wins during regular season?

WOW!!!

My thoughts exactly.

Bye bye 10-2 season.

This will be brutal. Also where is the bye week?

One Possibility - 10 SEC Games in 10 Weeks Schedule: Texas A&M:

Game 1 - Sept 26 - Arkansas - Home Game #1 Played at Kyle Field
Game 2 - Oct 3 - at Miss State - Away Game #1
Game 3 - Oct 10 - Missouri or Kentucky - Home Game #2
Game 4 - Oct 17 - at Auburn - Away Game #2
Game 5 - Oct 24 - at South Carolina - Away Game #3
Game 6 - Oct 31 - *LSU moved to allow Florida on Nov 28 - Home Game #3
Game 7 - Nov 7 - Ole Miss - Home Game #4
Game 8 - Nov 14 - Vanderbilt - Home Game #5
Game 9 - Nov 21 - at Alabama - Away Game #4
Game 10 - Nov 28 - Florida (Replacing LSU) - Away Game #5

We weren't going to beat Bama or LSU so it doesn't matter anyway.

I'd say we have an excellent shot against LSU. I don't care that they were a team of destiny last year, their entire roster and coaching staff has been gutted. They can't reload the way Bama does. Beating LSU and Auburn was a backdoor into the playoff. Now we have no tune ups, we have to face a Dan Mullen Gator squad, and we don't have the best track record against Mizzou(though it's been a few years). If there's no playoff then we'll have to go undefeated just for the AP to acknowledge us, let alone a MNC.

Hope we've got the spine to stand up to Jerry and not get roped in to 10 more years in Arlington in exchange for a two-year home-and-home with the Hogs.

our next 2 in the rotation are Missouri & Florida so that's who I expect to see added.

it will be interesting to see if the horns ever make the return trip to Baton Rouge

I think it's gonna be fun.

Weren't the horns tied to the outbreak. What if they caused this to wiggle out of it?! /BOMC

so for A&M to have a winning record...

Jimbo must beat one of Bama, LSU, Auburn, or Florida or win in Starkville (where A&M has lost 3 straight).

not going to be easy

Even with a 10-game conference schedule, I still believe we have a better chance of beating LSU at home than Auburn on the road. Under Jimbo Fisher, we've gone 1-3 and 1-2 in SEC road games over the past two years, not including wins over Arkansas at Jerry World. Including a loss at Clemson last year, he is 2-6 in true road games. The only road wins were at South Carolina in 2018 and Ole Miss in 2019, and both wins were by seven points or less. In fact, we have not scored more than 26 points in any road game.

When LSU visits us on 11/28, they will be coming off a difficult road game at Auburn, and I predict they will lose that game. Since 2000, LSU is 3-7 at Jordan-Hare stadium with wins in 2008, 2012, and 2018, and I don't see LSU winning two games in a row at that stadium. We will be coming off a loss at Alabama. With both LSU and Texas A&M motivated to bounce back from these tough road loses in the state of Alabama, home field advantage could be the biggest factor in determining the outcome.

Anyone know how this will affect Arkansas game?

Lost in this is that a whole lot of small schools who play to get paid are going to miss that massive cash infusion.

Most favorable schedule we were ever going to get in the SEC and it gets rewritten by a f****** virus.

---

Bama is supposedly loaded. With 8 to 10 players predicted to be drafted in the first round. If A&M could manage to get 8 players drafted in a single year, we would be pissing ourselves.

So we replace Georgia with at Florida. Schedule like last year. Typical our luck

So we play at home in a basically empty stadium and at their place next year full capacity?

I think we're gonna push the start of the season back a couple of weeks. Probably won't start til mid-late september and have one bye week. When will that be? i dunno.

A&M will accept that tradeoff with the hope of having 50% capacity...and being able to charge $200 or $300 per ticket (for the Arkansas game)
