Scheduling

So ACC adds three teams just this past summer and already has opponents picked for next 7 years whereas SEC knew two new teams were coming last winter & still has only one season's opponents selected & still don't have a dates schedule for that one season. Sad performance imo.

That's simply a result of the fact that the SEC is waiting to move to the 9 game conference schedule until they can work out a new contract and timeline with TV. It's not negligence or incompetence.

This. 2025 will most likely be 9 games.

I don't see what a possible nine game schedule after 2024 has to do with playing dates in 2024.

The SEC, logically, wants more money for more inventory (games played) from ESPN. ESPN hasn't been willing to pay additional money for a 9th game from all SEC teams. Negotiations still on going. But that is the reason why OP.

Guess I didn't realize your issue there since those aren't available for anyone. TV also involved there.
