SI article put us with Ole Miss, A&M and Alabama. They stated in the article that LSU/Bama was most watched football game over the last ten years.

What teams should it be?

There is no way the SEC would separate Alabama and Auburn. That rivalry is too old and too important to the state of Alabama.

For winning purposes: Vandy, Kentucky, Mizzou

Why not just have two 8 team divisions and only have inter division games (7) and keep the rest of each teams scheduling as it currently is. The SEC Championship game would still be the championship game.

Don't think they will go that route.

It either has to be strict geographic pods of four OR two divisions of eight each.

We have to be in one with Ark, OM and MsSt.

You then have:
Texas, TAM, OU, Mizzou
Bama, Aub, Tenn, Vandy
Fla, UGA, SoCar, Kent

Anything else just opens up too many questions IMO.

An argument could be made that Bama, Aub, UGA, Fla get lumped together, leaving SoCar, Tenn, Vandy and Kentucky but I don't see them doing that.


If they let TAM slip out from playing Texas every year that is the most pussy shite ever.

Easiest thing to do is make two eight team divisions with MS/AL being the dividing line

West
LSU
UT
TAM
OU
Ark
Ole
MS St
Mizzou

East
Bama
Aub
Tenn
Vandy
Kent
Uga
SoCar
Fla
