I think you read more into that than what is actually there. These permanent opponents were set up decades ago to protect rivalries. Even when TN was thumping Bama we didn't want to give that game up. Now with the new teams joining dropped GA from our schedule which is actually a game I like and would prefer to Ky next year but all of the AD I think voted on these schedules. I like Sabans idea of. One division games because I don't want to we're GA or Florida every 4 yrs or whatever it turns out to be.

I have no problem with the permanent opponents. UT had an amazing run (though they've been down a good 15 years now). I have a problem with THIS years deliberate manipulation of the schedule to better position the SEC's "premiere" teams for a BCS national title run. Convenient that both teams that had each other rotated off of each of their schedules for no particular reason both made it to the championship game.
