The SEC will have a few more teams with which they can schedule out-of-conference contests.
Sources report to ESPN’s Brett McMurphy that the league is adding BYU, Army and Notre Dame — all independents — to the list of Power 5 schools that meet the league’s competition criteria.
Army does not have any SEC opponents on upcoming schedules, as of press time. Notre Dame is slated to face Georgia in South Bend on September 9, 2017 and in Athens on September 21, 2019.
Missouri will play BYU on November 14, 2015 in Kansas City’s Arrowhead Stadium, with a return game in Provo on November 7, 2020. The Cougars will also face off against LSU in Houston on September 2, 2017.
