The SEC’s sacred rivalries of Auburn-Georgia and Alabama-Tennessee sound like they’re in jeopardy.


There is NO CHANCE these get busted up. Instead, the league will hard headedly continue to keep these four fricking teams in different divisions forcing this bastardized schedule.

The thing that pisses me off the most about it is that it's unnecessary. If the rivalries are SOOOOOO important, there are ways to accommodate them.

- Place all teams that have significant rivalries (let's face it, it's just these four really) in the same division. Bingo...they play every year.

- Allow them to schedule each other as non conference games that do not count towards their conference record in those years where they don't naturally match up. Bingo...they play every year.

Or...they can go the route that Nebraska/Oklahoma went when they joined the Big 12 and put the needs and desires of the conference ahead of their own interests and forgo their rivalry so that the SEC can have an equitable schedule that does not favor some while penalizing others.

So Would you like to take vandy and mizzou into the west and send auburn and Bama to the east? Because that sounds fricking terrible to me....especially if it's just to perpetuate these rivalries.....if that happened, the east may as well just break off into it's own conference because playing anyone but us and A&M would be an off week for east teams in that scenario.
