This year it seems like bama, aggies and ole miss. Although bama will be set for a few years if the SEC keeps bama's permanent cross division opponent at tenn.

But LSU getting UF every year is blast and glad it's not a cupcake opponent.

The obvious answer is Ole Miss.

The crybaby answer is Alabama.

BAMA is 7-0 vs Florida in about the last decade and has them scheduled for this season. How are you guys doing with the gators?

currently, no, but Tennessee has been a permanent cross-division opponent of Alabama's ever since the 1992 expansion. Florida and Tennessee were, on average, the toughest permanent cross-division opponents to have from 1992 until the late 00s. When LSU sucked in the 90s, was it unfair Florida got to pound on them basically every season?

Not bad last year as a 27pt underdog.

But what part of "permanent cross division opponents" did you not understand? How bama do against them last year??

The second greatest part to Bama’s success (behind Saban ) is Tennessee sucking donkey balls during this dynasty run

That's why I asked about permanent cross division opponents.

This is a troll answer at first glance, but as you dig deeper, it's actually possibly true. Auburn is in shambles. And even when Auburn was "good" that have an abysmal record against UGA in modern times.

We won, it was in all the papers and the internet. I just told you, we've beaten the gators and often in a lopsided manner for over a decade now. What's the problem?

So, I guess it was a good thing that he made their asses quit, then?

Fulmer was 63-27 (0.700) during the 2000s, in the seven years before Saban got established.

Vandy has given us fits for years, especially the past 16 seasons (the series is split 8-8 since 2005). That's an indictment on our program.

However, our rivalry is very old and it's not like the SEC office "gifted" Ole Miss a Vandy game each season. When the Dores and Rebs play this November, it will be the 94th meeting in the series. The Rebs and Dores have played every season since 1945 - 1967 and then from 1970 - present.

Let me also remind the class Alabama and Vanderbilt played every season from 1945 - 1951 and then from 1953 - 2002.

Now, although LSU fans are crybabies and Tennessee has been bad for a decade and a half, it wasn't always like that. Since permanent cross-division play began in 1992, Tennessee has finished in the AP top 15 eleven times. It should also be pointed that Alabama is in the midst of an unprecedented run of success. Sine 2008, Alabama has been ranked either #1 or #2 coming into the Tennessee game 10/13 times.
