The AD's at the last meeting seemed to be adamant about keeping those rivalries intact which this format would allow. There is no set solution on how the 2014 season will be played.

The SEC Plays sports other than football.

Geographically, it makes sense.

College football teams have up and down years.

Football takes top priority b/c of the revenue it brings to the conference. So yes technically there are other sports but none match the importance placed on football.

Yep.

Yeah but not all go up and down evenly. AU is up more than down. MSU is down more than up.. etc. etc. To put LSU, aTm, and Arky in a three man race while AU, Bama, UGA, UT, and UF have to fight it out in the East is bullshite. Add SC to the East too under Spurrier and you have hell compared to Heaven in the west.

True, and if you look at the 7 and 7 split in the OP, the overwhelming majority of SEC history would belong to the east. With a few exceptions, Bama, UGA, AU, UT, UF will always be good/pretty good teams, and sometimes great, elite teams.

MSU, Ole miss, missouri, arkansas, vandy have historically been mediocre/bad/awful teams with a few blips of success.
