But closer examination reveals that pods actually cause problems instead of being a viable solution for SEC football -- Better solution


As noted on the Alabama board, Alabama, UF, UGa, Auburn, and UT are 5 of the 6 teams that have won SEC titles since divisional play started. Putting them all in the East division would make for a very unbalanced conference and will never happen.

TN hasn't won the SEC in this century. AU has only twice. FL hasn't since Urban Meyer left. OK might become better with Venables. TA & TX are both recruiting well and likely to improve. This season, OM won 10 games, TA & AR won 8 & MS won 7. LSU has fallen pretty far, but will likely rebound soon. AL & GA in the SEC-E does make it stronger than the SEC-W initially, but only at the top. Overall, the new E & W will be pretty equal.

New SEC--E: AL, GA, FL, AU, KY, TN, SC, VB
New SEC-W: LS, OK, TX, TA, AR, OM, MS, MO

Factors such as financials, fan interest, brand, facilities, recruiting, coaching & culture will impact teams' future strength more than winning the SEC a decade or more ago will. Those two divisions are much more likely to happen than pods are.
