Ranking the top 10 schools Florida fans should want to bring into the SEC

The Gator Nation should welcome these 10 schools with open arms into the SEC.

Talk of the Texas Longhorns and Oklahoma Sooners leaving the Big 12 to join the Southeastern Conference is back in the news as the two schools apparently will have to wait until 2025 before making their move.

Nonetheless, the idea of expanding the SEC is one that always starts the conversation over which schools could — or should — be added to college football’s premier conference. For the Florida Gators, there are a few schools that would make perfect additions to their league while there are several others who also might fit the mold.

Within the current boundaries of the conference, that is, Texas to the west and Missouri to the north, we took a look at 10 different schools that could be a good fit for the SEC. While teams like the Texas Tech Raiders were considered, the lack of any history against the Gators outweighed what such a program would bring — that and we refuse to accept Lubbock as being in the southeast.

Take a look below at our selections.
