a better solution to the permanent rival thing is to have the East and West division overlap a bit.

move Auburn to the East and Tennessee to the west.


I agree, I'd have no issue with this. I really like the Tennessee game, but it was a product of expansion. The real history is with Auburn.

Arkansas fans getting tired of counting on a loss when AU comes up on the schedule?

If you move Bama to the East and Georgia to the west, everything works much better.

Preserves Bama Tennessee. Aub becomes Permanent

Preserves Ga Auburn. Make Fla Permanent.

LSU can pick up Tenn or SC as new Permanent.


Part of basis for moving Auburn to the east would be restoring AU-UF. It also makes more geographic sense to move Auburn to the east, more so than any other team.

Is Arky trying to find a way to bow out from playing Auburn?

I don't know, Arky has had sporadic success against us in the last couple decades. They're obsessed with us, but I don't know if that means they hate us and want us off their schedule or if they want to keep playing us and hoping for wins.

FWIW, Auburn has tried to move, SEC wouldnt let them


Perhaps Auburn should try moving the state line so they could truly be in West Georgia and the Eastern Time Zone.

That should do the trick.

Unfortunately there is already a Lee County in Georgia so they'll need to battle that out to see who gets to keep the name.
