SEC (It just means more.. even its losses are wins)

Commish: SEC has no plans to follow B1G lead, ban scheduling of FCS cupcakes

If you’re looking for the SEC to follow the path blazed by its Midwest Power Five counterparts, you’re likely in for quite a bit of a wait.

Back in July of last year, the Big Ten announced that, moving forward, the conference has banned its member institutions from scheduling opponents who play at the FCS level.The SEC, of course, regularly schedules such creampuffs, and it appears it has no plans of changing that aspect of their scheduling for the foreseeable future.

“It’s a conversation piece, but we have not eliminated those,” SEC commissioner Greg Sankey said earlier this week according to the Opelika-Auburn News. “Our schedule is set up across the season, rather than toward the end, so each conference is allowed to have its scheduling philosophy. …

“There’s relatively speaking a limited number of those FCS games. Some of those are quite challenging opponents, relatively speaking. :rofl:But we have not had a hard and fast discussion about eliminating those opportunities.”
