If the SEC weren't planning any more expansion they should split the SEC along actual nearer geographic lines:

East:
Florida
Georgia
Kentucky
South Carolina
Tennessee
Alabama
Auburn

West:
Arkansas
LSU
Mississippi State
Ole Miss
Texas A&M
Vandy
Missouri


This is actually one of the better hypothetical reorganizations of the SEC I've seen. You keep the traditional rivalries like TSIO and DSOR and make those divisional games and you keep the Iron Bowl as a divisional game. Since Auburn and Ole Miss both lose their cross-division rivalry opponent, they become an East-West matchup. You then make Alabama-LSU a cross-divisional matchup to keep that rivalry, and figure out the rest.

It will never happen because it makes too much sense.

Should have been what happened day 1.

IF that happens (and it won't ever happen), then you lose the cross division rivalries all together...
