SEC football 2024 schedules: Projecting every team's eight-game conference slate

Solving the puzzle of the SEC's scheduling issue for 2024 is daunting

247sports.com

The SEC has approved eight-game scheduling for at least the 2024 season while the conference figures out the logistics of a nine-game slate down the road. With the arrival of Texas and Oklahoma, there will be no divisions next season and the conference hasn't yet decided if it's going with the 1-7 model or a designated combination of opponents, so projecting every team's eight-game SEC schedule next season is a subjective guess.

We're trying to keep every team's schedule competitive as possible — as the SEC's league office plans to do — but not all slates will be created equally. Several programs have non-conference agreements with Power Five opponents next fall and getting out of those contracts would prove costly.

The eight-game format will continue the scheduling of primary and secondary rivalries for the 2024 season, which likely preserves such games as Auburn-Georgia and Alabama-Tennessee — and the renewal of the Texas-Texas A&M rivalry, which hasn't been played since 2011.

ALABAMA CRIMSON TIDE​

Projected 2024 SEC opponents: LSU, Texas A&M, at Oklahoma, Mississippi State, at Tennessee, at Georgia, Auburn, at Arkansas

Alabama will be able to handle a brutal schedule in 2024, but the likelihood of the Crimson Tide playing Texas for a third-consecutive season seems small. We'll toss a road trip to Oklahoma on there for maximum national exposure. Rivalry games with LSU and Auburn should stay, along with the Third Saturday in October (Tennessee). South Carolina owes the Crimson Tide a trip to Tuscaloosa, so that might happen next year.

Wont be LSU since thats a home in 23...and will be only 4...we know why...doubt there will be a UGA home or away

 

[TerryP]

Wont be LSU since thats a home in 23.

I don't think too much stock should be placed on who is playing where this season as compared to next; sans maybe Texas.

We've seen the SEC schedule the same game, same location, when they were adjusting/setting schedules in the past: Ole Miss and Bama as an example.

With no divisions, that’s a heavy former SEC West schedule - 6 of 8. Throw out Oklahoma and it’s 6 of 7.

A little interested in seeing how it all shakes out, but not nearly enough to watch a show about it. Would imagine it'll pretty much all be leaked out by this afternoon anyway.

 

[50+yeartidefan]

So if Burns is right. And texas won't be back to back for bama. Means Oklahoma for us

@TerryP
Right. Would be great to get lsu home. Back to back. Coonasses would have a fit

Billy Lucci (A&M guy) says no Bama (or UGA) on the A&M schedule for '24.

 

[SnakeDoc]

Billy Lucci (A&M guy) says no Bama (or UGA) on the A&M schedule for '24.

Is he typically reliable?

 

[TerryP]

Is he typically reliable?

I'll have to hear it twice, from another outside of A&M, to believe it's true. He's been a 50/50 guy since fRan.

I wait for someone on here to post anyway! It save me time in watching someone that doesn't know anything!

If you remember when the SEC went to divisions. Bama played Ole Miss or Miss St. back to back at their place.

Well? Except for, the, err...schedule.

I'll bet the SECN Twitter account will post the schedules during the same hour: maybe even before all are announced.

Consider this ...

I don't see a lot of "harping" happening tonight. 44 minutes of programming time, 16 teams, only leaves a little under three minutes per team schedule. A minute on Vandy, four on Auburn ... it'll all balance out.

Now, as a caveat: A lot depends on who is in the studio. Aside from Finebaum, the SEC Nation crew wouldn't be too bad. If it's the SEC Now crew, we'll see Peter or Dari but also may see RGIII...

Alabama football 2024 schedule: Predicting Crimson Tide's eight SEC opponents

Here are the projected Alabama matchups.

247sports.com

Home: Auburn, UofSC, A&M, and MSU.
Road: Ole Miss, LSU, Oklahoma, and UT.

 

[TerryP]

Y'all notice, same network (247) but different schedules?

 

[TerryP]

Over the last few years we've gone from not seeing that many games in Dallas—sans the Cotton until the playoffs started—and now the conference is looking at two regular season games per year and the possibility of post-season play.

It'll be interesting to see TCU's schedule versus those two weeks the SEC is in town.
