do you think the Bama/TN game is more important to the conference than say, more revenue and the potential for forcing NCAA to create a play-off system?

Obviously the current state of the rivalry isn't, but if Tennessee ever returns to full strength, the game would see massive ratings. Much in the same manner as the Alabama-Florida games of the past three years have seen. That being said, I'm not in favor of a play-off, so I wouldn't support expansion for those reasons.
