re: The SEC and Dealing From the Bottom of the Deck

The problem is that most of the other 10 don't want to change either. They like having a permanent opponent from the other division that isn't a traditional power. Ole Miss wouldn't want to give up Vandy(or whoever their annual crossover is), Miss. St wouldn't want to lose Kentucky, etc. They see these as much more winnable games than if they had to rotate and get S Carolina, UGA, etc more often.

Is that speculation or has this been said by one of their AD's in some way? I'm asking...I don't know.

My original point was that Alleva dropped that little tidbit out there in his e-mail as if his simply stating that LSU was opposed to it meant something. Fine...we're "opposed" to it...but what does that mean? Do we petition the other universities? Are we actively doing anything in opposition other than balling up our collective fists and shaking them in the direction of the SEC offices?

If it's true that LSU is in the minority in this regard and a majority of the other programs like and want to continue the current system, than I'd like Alleva to say that. We're just outvoted. But I would like to know what we're actually doing to address it since we're told we're opposed to it.
