Mizzou is a must. Big 8 vibes.

What a conference that used to be.

SEC moving to a 9 game schedule starting next year
OU_Sooner 08/21/25 05:55 PM ET
There’s 16 SEC teams. Groups of 4 give everybody three rivals…

I hope this means 5 Auto Bids instead 8 or 14 for just th B1G & SEC, I know
Stech 08/22/25 09:48 AM ET
IF I understand, the nine schedule thing was a big big 10 concern
1947Sunbowl 08/22/25 10:21 AM ET
Yes the B1G was the Auto B1G Conference, I am hoping this means that 5 AB's
Stech 08/22/25 10:26 AM ET
The ACC will follow….
Femoyer Hokie 08/22/25 09:26 AM ET
I suggest a strongly written letter to the ACC
HokieAl 08/22/25 09:51 AM ET
I agree on FSU, Clemson & Miami, but I have not seen Louisville or GT on
Stech 08/22/25 09:58 AM ET
I'm only talking in terms of ACC revenue
HokieAl 08/22/25 10:00 AM ET
That makes sense now, thanks.**
Stech 08/22/25 10:03 AM ET
Just shows how much impact a mediocre VT football program can have on...
EDGEMAN 08/22/25 10:12 AM ET
Yep, many people aren't going to invest until we get new leadership at AD
Stech 08/22/25 10:18 AM ET
This is the correct reponse**

Didn't you guys have some good tussles with Arkansas
mancunian 08/22/25 08:23 AM ET
Arkansas would be more of a geographic thing than anything else
OU_Sooner 08/22/25 08:36 AM ET
from where I'm sitting, the top choices
Big12 guy 08/22/25 08:56 AM ET
Agree Nebraska game should come back, but they aren't in the SEC, but
Stech 08/22/25 09:50 AM ET
Ya, the 8 left behind. Screw Texas and OU, the hate is real. **

Maroon Baboon 08/21/25 11:47 PM ET
That must mean a playoff format change is almost ready
HokieAl 08/21/25 09:45 PM ET
It’s gonna be even more difficult for an ACC team to schedule an SEC game
RandomAsianGuy 08/21/25 06:18 PM ET
F$U, Clemson, Louisville and GT won't have any problems.
EDGEMAN 08/22/25 09:14 AM ET
and just wait, OOC partnership with the BIG 10
1947Sunbowl 08/21/25 08:27 PM ET
I think the only way to change this dynamic
Big12 guy 08/21/25 06:32 PM ET
How does the ACC solve their math problem?
4x4hokies 08/21/25 05:58 PM ET
ACC conference games are not good viewership. We don’t need more
HokieAl 08/21/25 09:48 PM ET
So ACC will be boxed in not about the market
1947Sunbowl 08/22/25 09:29 AM ET
Count ND games or some schools play 8 conference games. **
RandomAsianGuy 08/21/25 06:24 PM ET
Count ND games in the 9, it can be a Conference Game for those that play em
Stech 08/22/25 10:22 AM ET
If we missed out because ND was our 9th game that year how would we feel?
4x4hokies 08/21/25 06:33 PM ET
New selection criteria changing it because of value going to ranked teams
Stech 08/22/25 10:11 AM ET
Blame the SEC and the committee. **
