Let's look at this from another perspective.
Every SEC school is profitable from football, so that means that each team is the dominate player in their specific market.
How does the SEC leverage that market share to the next level?
The next step is monopoly. So how do you get there from here?
Rivalries - Especially rivalries within the conference. This will allow the SEC to keep the money within the conference. To accomplish that the SEC needs to move to complete conference schedule. Eliminating the out of conference game will be painful in the beginning, but will pay huge dividends within five years.
And then something else happens. The totally conference schedule creates a playoff system for the SEC Championship by accident.
Expansion - There will be few teams that can resist the financial windfall of the SEC. Oklahoma, Nebraska, Texas, Louisville, West Virginia, Oklahoma State would be my first targets.
