Should SEC divisions be abolished relative to football?

The divisions were scrapped for basketball in 2011. I'm not suggesting a football tournament to determine the SEC football champ but what about the 2 highest ranked SEC teams playing for the SECC? I understand that the traditional rivalries are an issue but wouldn't a balanced scheduling rotation through all SEC teams create a more cohesive SEC?

Honestly it's not a bad idea. If we just took the division record it would make more sense to use divisions, but at this point you just play 8 of the 13 other teams. I don't see why you wouldn't just have the two best teams play for the championship.

Still not the correct answer but I don't see the scheduling get fixed till we go to 9 game SEC or drop the permanent opponent.

Stop screwing with our advantage. Next thing you know, you'll be expecting them to call holding on us. How the hell are we supposed to win with you people screwing with everything?

The massive crying from the leghumpers when Auburn and Alabama play for the SECCG a week after the Iron Bowl will be huge.

Do away with divisions and you WILL see that more than once.

To fix all the issues we should have just gone to a nine-game schedule.

We need to go with that 3-5 idea that came up like, last week. Maybe it had been mentioned before, I don't know, but it was the perfect idea.

Being as the NCAA only allows confrences with two distinct divisions to hold a championship game I would say the question is about as idiotic as any I have read lately. Congrats
