Happy Friday, everyone. All of the news today surrounds the SEC’s scheduling decision, so let’s get to it. First, unlike the ACC this season, there will be divisions.
Florida athletic director Scott Stricklin confirmed the SEC will keep its division format and the eight teams that are currently scheduled, and that the league is still determining the two additional teams. Sources told ESPN that one proposal heavily discussed is to add each school’s cross-divisional rotating opponents for the 2021 and 2022 seasons. Another proposal being considered, sources said, would be for the league to devise a ranking system based on strength of schedule and add the two additional league games based on that system.
