re: SEC scheduling question

The best solution?
Let Bama/Tenn and Auburn/UGA do their permanent things.
Everyone else rotates with no permanent.
Obviously we'd play Florida, Missouri, UK, Vandy and South Carolina more often than we'd play UGA and Tenn since they are only rotating one team a year while the others rotate 2 teams.
Its not difficult. There's no reason why everyone else has to do what Bama and Auburn want...oh wait, the SEC office is in Birgmingham. Nevermind.

Because we are one conference, not a conference with two separate sets of teams (Bama, Tenn, AU, UGA)and the rest.
The whole football scheduling mess is the reason I was so opposed to conference expansion (not to mention what it does to scheduling/tournament structure in other sports). 12 was such an ideal number.
BTW, I'm just curious, can anyone answer this question for me. What was the scheduling rotation in the years just prior to the expansion to 12 teams. We played 7 Conference games a year right, what teams were permanent opponents and how did the non permanent teams rotate?

Best option is no permanent cross-division opponent . In years that bama/tenn are not scheduled as SEC game they can play an "out of conference" game that does not count in the SEC standings. Same for Aub/Georgia. Problem solved.
