IMO, the real answer to our scheduling problems is to go divisionless.

If we're being honest, truly great OOC matchups are very few and far between as it is now.

The ACC/SEC Rivalry Week games are among the best.

There are no great Big 10/PAC OOC regular season games. The Big 12 has a few with the SEC and the SEC and ACC share some at both ends of the season, and Notre Dame has USC and Stanford, and that's about it.

Exactly.

Just looking at the SEC the past 10 years or so, there's only a few OOC series that have been truly great.

FSU/UF, UK/Louisville, SC/Clemson, GA Tech/UGA are obviously all important.

The various Clemson series are all good. UGA/ND is a good one. Some of Alabama's opening season games have been good, the upcoming ones with Texas, Southern Cal, and ND look better. Outside of those they're mostly all forgettable.
