The truth is, I hate that expansion has reduced some of the games I really enjoyed. It might not sting as much had it not been teams like Mizzou getting added.
Agree with your entire post but especially this. Conference expansion sucks for the fans. And while I might not catch them every year for all the other teams, I enjoy all the traditional rivalries and want them all protected wherever possible, including resuming some of the old Auburn ones (or switching them to the east) if that could be done without fricking over other series.
More to your question, I'm in my mid 30's and I care deeply about TSIO. It's been lopsided as of late but it's a series I have fond memories going back to some classics I saw as a boy in Legion Field. As far as Alabama goes, all I really care about is playing Auburn and Tennessee every year.

I'm not sure FL, UGA, and UT want us in the East. Only makes it harder for them to get to Atlanta. Though I would like to think Florida fans would enjoy playing us every year again.
Heard a rumor that Bama didn't want us playing in the state of Florida regularly as that would help our recruiting. Not sure how true that is.
I would like to see it happen. Don't think it will but maybe if we add more teams to get to 16?
