The 8 blue bloods of CFB are pretty obvious
Alabama
USC
Notre Dame
Michigan
OSU
Nebraska
Texas
Oklahoma

Everyone else is behind them. The team closest to falling off from their blueblood status is Nebraska, but even then they're at least a decade or two of consistently terrible performance before that can be considered.

Nope, Carlies just announced he's coming back for next year. I expect STAR will be Carnell; Charleston and Carlies will start at safety next year, and, hopefully, Burks will be the first guy off the bench.

SEC shorts have definitely diminished in quality this year unfortunately. Roll Call has been killing it this year. And I agree, the fact that all the teams are included in Roll Call every week is something I really appreciate and think it's something SEC Shorts is really lacking in.

The St. Thomas Aquinas pipeline (but the Kansas version this time) continues!

TE is way worse than QB, that position is so bad its basically an afterthought. If I had to rank the worse units for Mizzou going into the season I'd say it's:

1. Tight Ends
2. Defensive Ends
3. Running Back (I like Cody Schrader but he is not a starting SEC quality RB)
4. Offensive Line

I'd say Mizzou's WR & DT rooms are the two strengths of the team as far as talent, and particularly depth, goes.

With Eli’s most talented team yet, I got Mizzou going 8-4.

Yeah I never really understood why the SEC would want Clemson and FSU when we already have the state’s flagship schools of SCAR and UF. Virginia and UNC would be great fits considering they’re flagship schools in southern states the SEC doesn’t have any schools in. Just makes too much sense to want them instead of FSU and Clemson.

And your mother is one stroke short of being a vegetable, but it don’t mean crap until it happens.

That’s up to the school and AD’s, all I can do is guess. SI sports thinks it’ll be something like this

Missouri: Oklahoma, Arkansas, Vanderbilt

Arkansas: Missouri, Texas, Ole Miss

Texas A&M: LSU, Texas Mississippi State

Texas: Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Arkansas

Oklahoma: Texas, Missouri, Florida

LSU: Ole Miss, Texas A&M, Alabama

Ole Miss: Mississippi State, LSU, Arkansas

Mississippi State: Ole Miss, Kentucky, Texas A&M

Alabama: Auburn, Tennessee, LSU

Auburn: Alabama, Georgia, Vanderbilt

Vanderbilt: Tennessee, Auburn, Missouri

Tennessee: Vanderbilt, Alabama, South Carolina

Kentucky: Mississippi State, South Carolina, Georgia

Georgia: Auburn, Florida, Kentucky

Florida: Georgia, South Carolina, Oklahoma

South Carolina: Florida, Tennessee, Kentucky

If there are any games you think that could be switched that all teams would approve of let me know.

So, under this scheduling plan, teams would play their alternate teams five times every 12 years while still preserving three rivalries. It seems like the most optimal approach, especially if the SEC intends to stick with an 8-game schedule. Thoughts?
