    I wonder who, if anybody comes with them? Personally, I wouldn't mind FSU, but I don't see it happening.

    They would be one of my top choices, but yeah I doubt it as well.
    I wonder how this is going to change our schedule.

    I would imagine Towson can forget about the big payday and start looking for another opponent.

    Why would the conference not have a 14th team ready to go, so to speak, and announce both these additions at the same time? Is it that the SEC has 2-3 teams in mind and is just waiting to choose or does it not really know which team it wants? I feel like the longer we go with an odd number of teams, the greater the possibility of having no SEC title game next year. I don't think that's something the powers that be want to have happen.

    We need to stay at 8 conference games. I like our non-conference schedule esp when we play the likes of Oregon, W. Virginia, V. Tech, N. Carolina, Washington, etc....9 SEC games plus a SECCG is too much imho.

    It will certainly batter and wear us out even more at 9. But then they would have to drop the rotational east/west game or the annual one.
    Which one would it be?
    It would seem like they would drop the annual because every team wouldn't get to play each other often.
    Say we keep florida, but then we never play the other east teams

    I'm still feeling we should go after TCU and the Dallas/Fort Worth TV market, especially with the Big East in flux.
