Didn't I see and hear them talking about us not getting to play florida two times a year? the latest schedule shows us playing them twice. Did KY complain loud enough to get them to change it again? I also notice we play Auburn and Tex A&M twice along with TN and Vandy twice. Strange schedule.

Yes, it is strange.
I get the Home-and-homes with Florida, Vandy and Tennessee. Echos of the now-dead-and-buried SEC East. But why Auburn? And Texas A&M?
With 14 teams, we should play a 19 game slate -- home-and-homes against our 7-team division (which, I would presume, would include Missouri), and single games against schools in the other division. I suppose coaches didn't want to play 19 games in conference, so we are left with 18 SEC games, rendering the division concept dead. Hence, this bastardized schedule. Alas.

That's what it is. But the Lexington stations were saying that UK would not be keeping the home and home with Florida as their arch enemy but would get Florida instead and here they are showing Florida just like it has always been. Something must have been changed.
