When the SEC held its media days last summer, one of the biggest topics of conversation regarded whether the league would remain at an eight-game conference schedule or move to a nine-game format as some other leagues have done.
Some reporting indicated commissioner Greg Sankey was in favor of such a change. However, it was unpopular among some conference members, and no change was ultimately made.
While fans can’t expect a decision on that any time soon, Yahoo Sports’ Ross Dellenger reported that the topic has been reignited at SEC Media Days with some programs that previously opposed an expanded league schedule being more open to the idea now.
Dellenger said that a decision would likely be made next season after seeing one year of the expanded College Football Playoff format.
LSU and other SEC teams will only be playing eight conference games this fall, but it seems there’s a decent chance this will be the last season in which that’s the case.
