The SEC is not scheduled to discuss a plan to potentially move to conference-only games until next week, a person familiar with discussions in the conference office tells 247 Sports. That timeline may be accelerated after the Big Ten’s surprise announcement Thursday, but the plan is for athletics directors to discuss the logistics of a conference-only schedule next week.

Discussions will include an eight- to 10-game schedule in the SEC, though no final decision was expected to be reached at the meeting. The Big Ten’s decision, however, may change that. Publicly, the SEC remains steady with its plan to wait until late July or early August to make any decisions on the upcoming football season, which is threatened by the novel coronavirus COVID-19.

Marcello added that the SEC may wait until the last possible moment to make a final decision, so don’t expect a final announcement until later this month or into August.

ESPN reporter Peter Burns says multiple SEC schools are still planning to have non-conference games.

I'm still thinking that the SEC football season will be cancelled or played with no fans in the stands. Either way I may have worked my last UK football game because I will turn 80 in March and right now I am intending to call it quits after this season if it is played. Getting too old and decrepid to stand for almost 7 hours in the the stands.
