Florida Football: Eight game SEC schedule in Gators best interest

We have all sat through enough cupcake games over the years with Florida football to know that nobody within Gator Nation is excited about this year’s matchup against Charlotte or McNeese State. And at first glance, it may make sense for Florida fans to want a nine-game SEC schedule rather than the eight that are played right now.

But given some of the unique circumstances surrounding the Florida Gators, it makes more sense for Florida to want an eight-game slate, even if the conference would benefit from nine.

Florida Football: More actually means less

The SEC as a whole is idiotic for wanting to stick with eight conference games instead of nine potentially.
