I'll bite. I love watching the Florida lsu games. But, I like the Uga games more. In the early 2000s there seemed to be a good rivalry kicking off and Athens is better than Gainesville

Damn, why is the most important rivalry always changing
What would change about either of the three best rivalries (auburn vs. bama, bama vs. UT and Auburn vs UGA) other than that two would become divisional and one would become cross division?

Auburn would be in the easier division.
The west's SOS would be severely weakened by having Tennessee.
The permanent opponents would still remain which is the root issue for 10 of the SEC schools.

If you want to do it like the nfl make it to where the west and east champion from the year before play in the next year to have balance. Have it be the opening sec game in the dome every year.

I'm all for your proposal though.

For me it's not about Florida, it's about not playing UGA and UT often enough. If you're going to keep x-div rivalries, just keep it as it is now.
The way I understand it, LSU will be going to Athens once every 12 years while we have to endure Gainesville every year. That's just fricked in the head right there. 12 years? Damn.

If it preserves the important rivalries then that's the price of it.
We lost UF and we're not happy about it. Just spitballing ideas that would get that rivalry back. Perhaps y'all could pick up UGA as your permenant cross division rival in this hypo.

The Big Six should play each other annually.

No,that's garbage. If Alabama and Tennessee and then Georgia and Auburn want to play each other every year,fine. Lets go to 9 games then for more opponent diversity or figure out a way for those two games to be fixed and the other 10 teams rotate. Or, if those games are so precious to the institutions, play them as OOC games in particular years.

We should have a big 6 division and a scrub division. The best scrub team cycles into the big 6 division every year. Make the championship the best two teams from the good division

Disagree.
To me auburn playing UGA is more important than you guys having to wait 12 years to play someone.
It's not like if you guys lost a couple in a row you wouldn't immediately start bitching about having to play that team more often. We can't keep up with your moving target.

Play our oldest sec rival as an out of conference game? Can it count for our mandatory OOC game. Because i fear the day that if we did that and UGA somehow sucked how you'd turn your 'this schedule isn't fair' wrath on us.

I'm fine with mizzou being part of the big 6

Why should Auburn fans be happy and nobody else? Make them stay where they are and

If that game is so special,so precious, you shouldn't care how or when its played.
Again,I don't care how good/bad Florida,Georgia,etc are. LSU vs Florida means nothing to those fanbases. I simply want more variety from the East.

Not that Ags have any room to talk, but why are Auburn fans so willing to give up a 100+ year old rivalry?
