With the additions of Texas and Oklahoma to the conference this summer, the SEC moves into the brave new world of division-less football for the first time since the league grew to 12 teams in 1992. For the last 32 seasons, the SEC hasn’t had to worry about tiebreakers to determine which teams play in the conference championship game because of the round-robin format each division enjoyed. If two teams had identical conference records, the team who won the head-to-head match-up would get the nod. There was the unlikely event that a three-way tie could exist in division standings, but the round robin format once again made it relatively simple to devise tiebreaking standards.
