That's not something we're flexible on in any way, whether we had stayed with eight games or not, that wasn't something that was going to change. We had made that very clear, that wasn't going to be something we were open to. It's too important for our university, our players and our fans. As someone who's been both places, the Alabama game is a game that's a special deal to both sides and it's one of the games that sets the SEC apart from other leagues. Auburn and Georgia are with us on that deal too. We have a majority of the league, so it's really not an issue that should be talked about moving forward. We're going to play them."


Oh look at that, a program who doesn't bitch about a permanent opponent that is really good most of the time. I'm looking at you LSU

Here is where i think some LSU fans get upset: I agree that UT/Bama should say. It is a great tradition and would be a shame to see it go. HOWEVER, another great tradition was LSU night games. But we got that shite on because, "The CBS contract was good for the conference".
