Auburn AD banging the drum for a Tigers move to SEC East, Mizzou shift to West

quote:

Tuesday, SEC commissioner Greg Sankey laid talk of a potential Auburn move from the SEC West to the East at the feet of the media. A day later, that university’s athletic director picked up the talk and ran with it. Hard.



quote:

After months of chatter on the subject, Jay Jacobs met the issue head-on at the conference’s spring meetings Wednesday, with the AU AD banging the drum very loudly for his football team to move from the West to the East and Missouri taking their place in the division.

Yeah because they could compete for the east every year. Playing Kentucky and Tennessee every year is much better than LSU, State, and A&M

It would be great to see Auburn start having success again.

Move Bama and Auburn to the East.

Move Mizzou and Vandy to the West.

It fixes all the “permanent” opponent garbage...Auburn plays UGA, Bama, UF

Bama plays TENN, Auburn.

We can go to rotating opponents, and not have to wait 10 years to visit stadiums all because of keeping alive 57 different “rivalries”.

I don't get it. The way Auburn administrators and fans chant for moving to the East they act like they'd be the Bama of the East and they are 7-7 against the East since expansion. If you moved then you'd have Bama as your cross division rival which would make you the new Tennessee.

The East would be loaded in basketball with Auburn.
