With news coming out today about the upcoming SEC B1G meeting to be held in Nashvile, I would say that the SEC will go to a nine game schedule and each team will also have to play a team from the other conference. I am all for it. This will mean the end of the Louisville game and I am fine with that. While this will be brutal for UK, it will be brutal for every team. The SEC and the B1g would each get 4 spots in the playoffs. The revenue will be insame. What say you?
9 SEC games + one B1g game a year

I love it. It's not like UK has much of a chance of the playoff bid anyways with current scheduling. We would get a weaker big 10 team every year anyways. Not like we will draw osu or usc or Oregon or Michigan ever.
I think UK could get into the playoffs. Think what UK could do this year if the Oline was as good as some of the best Stoops has had.
I think the 9 game schedule for in conference plus 1 Big 10 OOC is likely, but am reading that 3 auto bids are more likely than 4.
Gotta go 10 and 2 to get in probably. When has UK ever done that?
Better than 10 and 2 in '77 (10 and 1), and before, but never since. Closest were two 9 and 3 seasons that ended 10 and 3 after bowl.
9 plus big 10 seems excessive. And it squeezes out Big 12 and Acc. Id prefer 9 and 1 and we should still play Louisville, but money grubbing Mitch would rather play Ohio for an extra 25,000.
Those 2 conferences are steaming piles of dog crap and won't ever win another national title.
I like playing U of L every year,why would this schedule mean we had to drop them? Who would fans miss more an annual rivalry game or a laugher like upcoming Murray State.
Might as well go all the way. 9 SEC and then one game against Big !0, Big 12 and ACC each. There you have it - 12 games schedule were every game means something. Then 9-3 teams will have a good chance at playoffs - just remember - the 12 team playoff will go away in all probablity in a couple of years - it will be 16 teams because it is logical and makes the most sense!
Go Big Blue!
Got to get more NIL for the big uglies on O... Not enough man power to climb up the ladder with the way this team is this year... If I had millions laying around I would buy 2 LT's every year, then I would buy a couple good guards and the best center in high school... Get a five star QB and a couple WO's that run sub 2 second 40's, lol... Well at least 4.3 or so... We got one but he can't catch a cold without a shirt in Alaska.... Has no ability to go anywhere but down seems...
Get a good OC who can call play's we all like, lol... Now what say you??

I hate U6 and anything about them... I want to beat them every game, I am in the middle on this issue... I don't want to play them every year but I like beating them... Can't stand that we had to start playing them again back in the what was it 80's or 90's...

If the SEC dropping the ACC OOC games means they implode and leaves Louisville homeless, I’m okay with it. SEC and BIG are separating from the rest of football and are becoming the NFC/AFC.
I agree that weaker Little 10 teams will come to Kentucky, but we will be on the road for Oregon, USC, UCLA or Washington. IMO
Not a fan for I'm an older guy and think that all this is ruining the game.
Wait until they jackup basketball and the NCAA Tournament and we have playoff series like the NBA> (More games more money right?)
Anyway, what I hope would happen is that these two power conferences would garner the absolute best talent around the country and elevate all schools within those conferences.
If you want to play in the NFL, you would almost certainly want to be in the SEC or Big20. Although we still may be towards the mid to bottom of all that talent, maybe it does bring some parody. Who knows anymore?

Article said that UL would be axed, which is what we want. No more helping them.
It means the end of at least one Lake Erie regional commuter school.
Signals more or less the beginning of a mega football league, maybe not today, tomorrow or even a couple of years as it will take time to figure it all out, but it’s coming.
ACC isn’t going to give up their games with SEC nor is any one else. Not real sure the big media conglomerates want that either. ACC has a lot of good ratings/marketing/demographic turf.
I think folks are realizing west and Pacific Northwest programs playing middle America and east coast programs is good money. Texas and Oklahoma mingling with SEC is good money. All of the above mingling more and more will be even better money!
Here’s what’s not great money. Mega U vs Little College St Tech blowouts.
We’re moving toward the P4 separating, at least in football, from everyone else. The biggest 40-50ish programs essentially becoming another pro league.

I hope the SEC doesn't give equal bids to the b!G , piss on them , show you can compete better before we go 4 SEC , 4 BiG's or b!G's or Biggs
Some middle of the pack Big10 team that we would be matched up against doesn't worry me at all. They would be easier to beat than Louisville. The only team in that over rated conference that as a UK fan worries me is Ohio State. Michigan is about to fall off to what they were before Jim Harbaugh got there and started his cheating. USC ain't what they used to be & Oregon year in & year out is the most over rated team in college football. UK against a Big10 team would just be another easy non conference win.
It doesent matter what fans want. UK was dead set against the SEC going to a nine game schedule. Imagine UK being forced to go to a nine game SEC schedule and adding a B1G school to the schedule. I guarantee that UK will drop UL. With that kind of schedule, UK would only get 5 home games a year, so it makes some sense to have two cupcakes to make sure you get 7 home games.
