All I ever hear about is how grueling it is to play in that conference. Now players are not just physically whipped at the end of year, they now are mentally and emotionally drained that they can no longer perform to their high standards against weaker competition. The SEC should dissolve. The schools can draw straws to see who gets to join a power 5 or a mid major conference.
If they go this route, they can guarantee the CFP in the future will only include teams currently in the SEC that will now steamroll through their new, inferior conferences.
Last year was a fair fight with UGA and Bama. I think they should try 6 conference games first and then cancel the championship game and request that both divisional champs get automatic bids to the playoff.
Better than drawing straws to determine who gets to join a power 5 conference or mid-major, why not just swap out teams. Say for example they trade Florida for FSU. They get rid of a team that is starting to show flashes of what used to be for a team that Jimbo left screwed. They then trade Missouri for say Miami. Both teams suck, but hey, both begin with the letter "M'. We have four teams in North Carolina, they have two in Tennessee so we trade Wake and State for Vandy thus giving each state 3 teams, and we get rid of the one school in our division that could challenge us somewhere down the road. (No not Wake but State). Finally, we have Louisville and they have Kentucky, so we do a switch there, giving the poor old coots a breather from going 0-6 against Kentucky next season. Sounds better than dissolving a conference we seem to have no trouble beating year after year. Don't you think?
