Perhaps, he should have said it more artfully or perhaps not at all but it is true that playing that game does not seem near as important as it once was.
What if the SEC Champion was based on regular season Conference Won/Loss records? That would obviously give teams with easier schedules an advantage. I do think going to a nine game rotation with 3 traditional rivals and the rotation of the other 12 (6 a year) would add clarity and substance. You play one Power 4 Team at least and then you can have the two "cupcakes".
We all know that the SEC Baseball Tourney has become a coaches nightmare regarding using up pitcher's arms and Basketball has also lost relevance.
I realize that these three events are big money makers so I don't expect any changes.
