Not to mention AU/UF has been a supperior rivalry for decades and was one of the most competitive rivalries in SEC history.

The East is down at this point. You are making the west harder by adding TAMU and TAMU is stronger than Mizzou.
Moving Auburn to the East would be a slam dunk if not for the Bama/UT game. A better balanced league, a geographically correct league.
UT would be losing Bama and getting Auburn.
In the end I still thing Auburn moves East unless Alabama really does control the SEC office.

For UT fans, that's like replacing Tyler Bray with Matt Simms. It would really suck.

Hell, either one of us will kick your arse, so what's the difference?

This. Some people have a problem with the concept of 'balance'.

Hypothetically, if Vandy went west, Mizzou joined the west, and UA/AU went east, would LSU fans then bitch about having Bama as their permanent rival?

If schools don't want to lose their traditional rivalry game, let them schedule home and home "non-conference" games, and then do away with the permanent opponents ... then we'll see just how important those games are to them.

Easy to say when your team doesn't play games that are historically important to them.

Like I said, if it's that important, schedule "out of conference". If you don't want to do that because it takes a cupcake off the schedule, then it must not be that historically significant.

I disagree that Auburn moving to the East would make a better balanced league. Yes, the East is down at this point, but that is an unusual situation. Historically, the two have been pretty close, and the East actually holds an 11-8 advantage in the SECCG. Putting Auburn in the East would result in four of the Big Six in the East and only two in the West. I think that is uneven. Sure, A&M is better than Missouri, but they are not on the level of Bama, Tenn, Fla, Auburn, LSU or UGA. I'd say they are about equal with Arkansas.

Why does it matter? Just put them , Mizzou, in the East. It' ll only be for 2 yrs, 3 at most. The race is for 16 teams. Once Sec gets 14, the other 3 conf. Will not sit by, which means someone gets raided and then its on. I believe this will be "the final straw", I don't care what the other conferences are setting right now, they will not the ACC and SEC get that much bargaining chips with ESpn AND THE OTHERS.

I agree. All the LSU fans bitching about UF are retarded. Big 6 need to stay split to keep things equal and fair. I don't understand why they would want to get rid of a team we have played 40 years in a row.

frick that.

South Carolina? Why? We've hardly ever played them and are 16-2-1 against them all time. We played Florida every year for a long, long time.
The only upside to this is embarassing Spurrier for as long as he coaches there.

I've been saying this all along. If the rivalry means that much to Alabama and Tennessee, then schedule each other as OOC when the game is not scheduled as conference games. Fla does it with FSU, UGA does it with Ga Tech, So Carolina does it with Clemson, Ky does it with UL and aTm will do it with UT if UT has any balls. This isn't rocket science, gump.

I want Florida still. We owe them like 6 or 7 more blowouts from the 90's. Muschamp is a buffoon. Weis is visible from space + a shitty OC in the SEC.
NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO DROP FLORIDA, M8S

No historical value = No concern
