Looks fine to me. We basically have this imbalance now with the way the Easy has been.
Yea, because the east has never ever been good.

You are fricking stupid. Auburn and Tennessee will be back sooner rather than later, with Auburn getting back quicker.

No LSU/Bama.
Good. This series needs a break. Games are really fun but I'm sick of hearing the whole Saban issue going back and forth.
Bama: "Look LSU, we have Saban. Ha. You're jealous."
LSU: "I hate Saban I hate Saban I hate Saban"
Bama: "Yes, Commissioner Slive, we need to change our schedule for next year..."
LSU: "Mr. Alleve, Commissioner Slive is on line 1 for you - its urgent."

These divisions would be stupid, Alabama would have to play teams like UF and UGA every year, while LSU can get Mizzou and Kentucky...............................

That is the point. LSU does not like to have to put up a fight to get to the SECCG. They are special so they should be given an easier way to get there. If by some chance aTm and Arky were to start pushing them arround they would start bitching about that too.

If you believe the SEC really wants to save old-geezer, butthurt rivalry games, you are sadly mistaken.
Preserving the oldest butthurt rivalry games for the old-geezers is only the excuse, not the real reason for keeping them.

Just look at it one more time and you will see. Trading Kentucky and Mizzou for the winners of the last 4 national titles would not create any imbalance at all.

I have no clue what I just read but am pretty sure it was pointless and ill conceived.

Those divisions seem a little unbalanced.
i thought tradition was more important than competitive balance?

I could care less about who we play in the SEC every year, except Auburn.
I've always though it would be a good Idea to Move Auburn to the East, Mizzou to the West, have geographical autonomy, and call it a day.
Georgia still keeps their rivalry with the Plainsmen, and so does Alabama (as a cross-division game).
My personal favorite Cross Division games go as as such:
Alabama-Auburn
Florida-LSU
Tennessee-Ole Miss
Mississippi State-Kentucky
Mizzou-Texas A&M
Ole Miss-South Carolina
Arkansas-Vanderbilt
Everyone goes home happy.

Show me where this is a bad idea?
Other than the SEC West being a cakewalk? In that scenario the East might as well break off and start their own conference.

Who thinks the SEC can't live without Kentucky vs Miss. St., or Vanderbilt vs Ole Miss, or the manufactured Missouri vs Arkansas and TAM vs USCar. games every year?
What the majority of the SEC coaches and school administrators really don't want to lose is the annual matchup of Florida vs LSU--the most dominate divisional powers in the SEC since 2001.
It is not LSU or Florida who is afraid of playing each other, nor is it Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, or Auburn who are the real hypocrites.
The real chicken-shits are the historical Weak-Sister programs of the SEC. They are the ones who keep voting to keep from playing these two SEC perennial powers more often.
They are the real sissys that are hiding from Florida or LSU.
It’s Kentucky, Vanderbilt, Ole Miss, Miss. St., and Missouri who are the real sissys that are hiding from Florida or LSU.

Makes perfect sense, yet you'll see fans of the schools moving crying saying the west is too easy.

Move Auburn to The East and let Mizzou be in The West. That makes geographical sense and let's get rid of permanent cross divisional games. Rotate out all cross divisional games.
