I'm sure an LSU fans would love having only one big 6 regular opponent while Georgia and Florida have two and Bama and Auburn have three.
I don't understand why people keep trying to fix something that's not broken. This conference makes millions because Alabama plays Tennessee every year. Because Georgia plays Auburn every year. And because Florida plays LSU every year.
Nobody is cutting fat checks to see Mizzou play Arkansas or South Carolina play Mississippi State. You can whine about what's 'fair' or what are natural rivalries. But 25 years of evidence says the current set up cashes checks.

Or try to do something that has never been done in the past. The teams in the SEC have never really been about getting to play at an opposing teams field every couple of years. LSU has spent most of their history not playing teams from the SEC east, now its a priority.
How does playing a road trip benefit a team? sure your players get to see a new stadium, but thats the least of anyone's priorities
