I swear you really must be a Tater
Notice those grey bumpy things between Lexington and Knoxville on one side. Yet traveling up and down along the yellow area has much smaller bumpy things.




Old L&N ran primarily from Louisville (where headquartered) to Nashville

Notice how this map from the 50's covers the SEC pretty well and not the old ACC



Notice the really dark lines where the main routes were.
Notice how close Athens is to Atlanta!
In the old days of rail probably had a dedicated light rail between the two the way you have puddle jumpers today.

Not sure how old you are but I remember it was a big deal before the interstates to go east if family did not live near a rail station.

Still have the same issues with passenger rail today when looking at East-West travel.

Let me get this right; you are saying USCe wasn't asked to join the SEC because of all the mountains between Columbia and the other SEC schools? The same mountains that are between Knoxville and Athens? Exactly where do you think Columbia is?

Even for you, this is a ridiculous stance. And believe me, we've all come to expect ridiculous shite from you.
