Again, we're in the same conference vying for the same title making the same money. It's fair to rotate on an equal basis. It's not fair to have some teams not have to play everyone on the other side an equal amount as the other western division teams and vice versa. You want to keep your game? Go to the east or y'all take the 6-1-1 and allow everyone else to rotate. You can keep your rivalry and we can enjoy a fair remedy.



Again, this only satisfies YOUR definition of fair. I think it's unfair if LSU gets to have Vanderbilt AND Kentucky as their 2 east opponents. If you want pansies, it's why the OOC is up to the school to schedule separately.

When exactly has playing Florida kept you out of an important game? And what about all of the LSU fans who like playing Florida every year? What is their excuse?

Why does it have to be those two teams? It could just as easily be UGA and UF on our schedule on a given year. Why do you choose bad teams when the odds of good teams are just as possible? Oh that's right, because it hurts your argument and showcases the stupidity of this entire thing.

Again. No one has an issue with playing UF.

How many times has there been a rematch in the SEC Championship game or teams that are permanent opponents?

I enjoy the UF game. It's one of the only teams on our schedule that is a game grounded in this strange level of respect for the most part that I've never fully understood. But it's there.

I would like to play UGA more. Why is that asking for an easier road? It's easy for you to believe this is about being scared. But it's not about that. It's about what is fair and equitable moving forward. The current format isn't.

Only twice has losing to Florida kept LSU out of the SECCG, in 1996 and 2006. Losing to LSU has kept Florida out of it more often, at least four times, in 1997, 2002, 2005 and 2007.
