Say goodbye to your non-permanent cross-division opponent this year!

I'm glad this thread is still going. Fans of other schools, please show this to your pussy ADs and coaches who are afraid to play more than 8 conference games and tell them the fans have spoken.
It's awesome how bama fans think they led the charge in telling everyone this schedule wouldnt work when it was actually LSU. And everyone shite on LSU about it too.
But wasn't it Bama who wanted to KEEP cross-div. rivals while LSU tried to ax them?

From what I recall, when the Aggies and Mizzou joined the SEC, Bama and Tenn would only vote yes if they could keep their rivalry game. Slive would only add teams if their was a unanimous vote, and that was the only way those two schools agreed. So I think that was the driving force in keeping the permanent opponent (at least in recent years) Not a flame against those schools, they were looking out for their interests, just reporting what I remember.
