Texas Longhorns head coach Steve Sarkisian continues to express significant concerns about the Southeastern Conference's planned transition to a nine-game conference schedule. The move would increase the number of SEC matchups each team plays during the regular season.
Sarkisian has been vocal about his reservations regarding the scheduling change, which would affect competitive balance, travel demands, and non-conference scheduling flexibility for Texas and other SEC programs. The conference has been evaluating the format shift as part of its ongoing scheduling discussions.
