Gotta make it worthwhile for the fans to show up


Quality P5 OOC opponents would be better for everyone involved.

Ironically, OOC scheduling is the only scheduling each team and each AD has control over.

My guess is that ESPN will be putting their thumb down on the ADs more-so than the conference commissioner.

My bama/vandy grad boss and I discussed this recently. We thought it would make sense if the league had a requirement for schools to schedule OOC opponents that reach a certain quantified quality. For instance, the schools are free to schedule their own OOC schedules in advanced but within a set timeframe, and their opponents have to meet a certain threshold of quality based off the opponents last 10 year record according to the schedule quality, etc. one OOC P5 team has to reach a specific threshold, then after that a cumulative threshold has to be met for all OOC opponents together. This way we can ensure schedules are balanced and of good quality.
