I mean I get it. But all of this seems to be a huge overreaction to recent Alabama success.

Tennessee hasnt always been terrible
Bama hasnt always gotten the better schedules
its just the way things are right now.







I agree with all of this, but I think what is driving it is the way they screwed over LSU with the 2012 and 2013 schedules. There was no legit reason for the changes that were made. On top of this the time has come for a complete rotation in the schedule and doing away with permanents. Yeah some traditional games won't be played every single year. So freaking what, if you want to make progress you have to accept changes along the way. Personally I think it would make the historic match ups even more special because they won't be played as often and it will give the fan bases more to look forward too. It seems like LSU is always the one being asked / forced to make concessions for the betterment of the conference. I ask this one question when has Bama/Auburn/Georgia took one for the conference? Why is LSU forced into 5/6 spot in the bowl pecking order when they finished higher and are ranked higher than other conference members who were granted higher bowls?

Sure, let's leave the nations strongest conference for a conference that was an OU defection away from total collapse just last year.

Leaving the SEC is a terrible idea, and this article sends the wrong message to the rest of the SEC, which will be quick to label us as a bunch of whiny wusses. Thanks, Rabalais.

What LSU does need to do is stand up for itself when the league shafts them. All we do is just take it in the arse from the Bama centric SEC front office while we're told everything is fine. Everything is not fine, and the SEC needs to hear it from an AD who is as sick of this shite as the fan base is. Wish we would actually have an AD with a nut sack.
