Message: [QUOTE="TexanMark, post: 4694056, member: 35"] The middling and bottom of the SEC just like other P5 conferences need to go 3-1 or better in their OOC schedule to try to get to 6-6. One more conference game is nice in theory but the extra TV money can't change math. Several SEC schools also have long standing OOC rivals which further complicates scheduling. Jacksonville is scheduled to upgrade the Gator Bowl in a bid to extend the Cocktail Party game too. Both schools will look to schedule more home games to make up the loss of a home game every other year. I expect they'll (UGA and UF) offer more money to get some better branded OOC opponents but still buy wins. For example UConn vs ULM, SDSU vs Sam Houston St. It wouldn't surprise me in 5 years to see a couple M3 schools pop up as a buy game. SEC and B1G schools will all try for 8 game home schedules most years. [/QUOTE]
