Not a rivalry...Iron Bowl is the only rivalry outside the SEC that gets attention

Tennessee Alabama is a hatred between the two that no LSU fan could comprehend


That's fine. But isn't it a problem when I could name 5-6 other SEC match ups that the nation even notices than the Bama/UT game?

Yet that one game controls the schedules?

And don't blast me, I haven't taken part in the schedule bitching TBH.

No one cares about LSU games either, outside of Lousiana. Using your logic, LSU should just stop playing football next year.

True, it is just a temporary thing till Bama goes back into the cellar.

Nobody cares that you're too scared to play Florida every year either.

If not for winning bcs title games, the nation wouldn't even notice what the SEC does. Why should we care what the nation thinks?

I'm sorry. The only team I care about is Alabama. I don't care about the rest of the SEC. I'm going to do what's best for me and mine.

Thats a good attitude to have as a Tenn fan right now. Because the nation thinks yall suck donkey balls which is true.

I guess we should do what LSU did in the 90's, and pretend to care about some second tier sport.

As long as you're in the title picture, people will care. The moment you're out, everyone loses interest.

I think we can all agree that the SEC and college football will be better off when all these old timers die off, and their traditions go with them.

As an outsider and avid football fan, I am not particularly glued to any game except ones that matter.

The IRON Bowl is interesting and outside of that probably Georgia/Florida gets the most exposure.

A&M will probably pull some interest from the West Coast.

Bama Fans are only camping on Tennessee right now cause they suck. They don't want to risk losing scheduling a good team like florida. That way they would have to start preparing for more than two games a season.
