Auburn athletic Jay Jacobs said Wednesday that the next time the league's 14 athletics directors have a "football only" meeting to discuss ways to strengthen the league's national position, he'll make it clear that he'd like to see Western Division member Auburn swap places with Eastern Division member Missouri.
Auburn to the East, Missouri to the West, with Auburn still maintaining its Iron Bowl rivalry with Alabama.
"It makes more sense for Auburn from the demographics of our students," Jacobs said of flipping Auburn to the East. "Six to eight years ago, I looked at our demographics and most all of our students come from Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, South Carolina and Kentucky.

Auburn is the least diverse University in the SEC.
Since we're talking demographics and such.

Running from Daddy I see.

Jacobs should be thankful Alabama and Tennessee let them stay in the West.
The Atlantic or Coastal Division is where they belong.

No Saban in the East

The reason Auburn is in the West in the first place is to equally distribute the Big 6. We've had a ton of threads this off season pointing out how no one but the Big 6 has won anything, so I just don't see how the AD's of the Big 3 in the East will okay this? I'd be all for it and I'm sure Bama would be too...

Good Lord, and then what? Move the BITCHES to the East and they will still will not appear in anymore SECCG's than they do now. UF, UGA, and UT will get better and AU will still have to deal with Daddy in Tuscaloosa!

VOLS, Bama, UF and UGA already voted against this once. Why does Jay Jacobs think things are different now?

It makes more sense travel wise.
Plus the more often we get a chance to play Auburn, the more chances we get to put an awful streak behind us.
If you read this, Bowl, go ahead.

Well, that's a lie.
Yes, Auburn has a ton of kids from Georgia (who they already play every year). But they have more from Texas than any other state he listed except Florida.
ETA - They have more students from China than they do from 47 US states, just barely edged out by Florida or it would be 48.

This is ridiculous

I'd be all for Auburn moving to the East but that means LSU fans have to go to Columbia, Missouri every other year Auburn can stay in the West

Upvoted ... Auburn belongs in the East. There is no excuse for them not being in the East other than a BHam conspiracy perpetrated by Bama and most probably UT.
