TV money. Plain and simple. AU-Ga, Ala-Tn, LSU-Fl are better ratings than any rotating game.

People would still tune in for LSU-Tenn, AU-Fl, Ga-Alabama.

False. Given two rotating OOC opponents, each team will play one historically strong and historically not as strong opponent every year. Alabama won't be "stuck" only playing Kentucky. A 9 game schedule almost assuredly increases your rotating opponent quality matchups.
