No official announcement yet from the SEC, but the Gator Bowl has said that it's signed a four-year deal with the league to match the SEC against the Big Ten on New Year's Day.
The SEC is not only putting the Gator above the Liberty, it's also moving the Music City above the Liberty. So the Liberty gets the 8th or 9th SEC team, assuming there's one eligible.
The city of Memphis can blame John Calipari for this, right?
