Sankey encouraged more non-conference matchups between the leagues, arguing that teams could test their assessments of SEC opponents through regular-season competition. He also pointed to a canceled series involving one of the coaches’ programs.
The reference concerned Illinois’ scheduling change involving Missouri. Illinois announced November 3 that Notre Dame would replace Missouri on its 2027 and 2028 schedules. The Fighting Illini will visit South Bend in 2027 before hosting the Fighting Irish in Champaign the following year.
