Why not play a 9 game conference schedule?
Why not get rid of the permanent rent a wins some teams have from the other division so there isn't a need for a 9 game schedule?

Would it really hurt Bama's record to play Kentucky instead of Tennessee?

Would UGA really be harmed by playing Ms. State instead of Auburn?

Please tell me WHAT school has a "rent-a-win" cross-division opponent? & don't say TN/Alabama because back in the 90's that game was pretty much an automatic "W" for the guys in orange!



I know this isn't a legit site, but you can see everybody is about 50/50 on their cross-division rivalries.
