Will the SEC ever move to a nine-game conference schedule that mirrors the the Big Ten, Big 12 and Pac-12?

Well, throw Georgia coach Kirby Smart among SEC coaches that favor a nine-game conference slate.

“I think it [would be] a good thing, but I think you will have teams with more losses,” Smart told Dawg Nation. “Does it affect a team getting in the playoff? I don’t know, but I know you have a lot more games to get up for, a lot more good rivalry games.

“It’s not just about traveling, it’s just as much about the atmosphere of playing an SEC opponent, I think you are playing more comparable teams to your talent level, I think it’s important for college football.
