Well, we don't know if any changes with the constants are going to take place but gaining maybe the best team in the East with the changes is typical. The entire structure is a sham though and results like these occur all too often because of a game nobody cares about outside of Tenn and Alabama.

The AU-UGA game has actually been going on for longer so it wasn't just the 3rd Sat in Oct game. They also could have moved both AU and UA to the East and moved Vandy to the West and preserved those games, but that would've left 5 of the Big 6 in the same division and LSU with no competition whatsoever, which I'm sure you would've preferred.
