East:
Tennessee
Kentucky
Florida
S. Carolina
Georgia
Vanderbilt
Alabama
Auburn
(Why? Because this fits their classic place in the conference anyway)
West:
Ole Miss
LSU
MSU
Arkansas
Texas A&M
Mizzou
Texas
Oklahoma
Tennessee
Kentucky

S. Carolina
Georgia

In this format, Ole Miss would easily win the West at least half of the time. I'm all for it.

Do not want to be in the pansy east.

I like whatever division that makes us play everyone every 3 years or so.

With an 8 game conference schedule you go to the place in the East every 16 years.
9 game schedule every 8 years if there are. No permanent cross opponents. If you have a permanent one it’s back to every 16.
It should be every team is in a pod of 4, you play your 3 plus 2 from each pod. Next year you play the other 2. This way you get to play everyone every 2 years as at their place every 4.
In order to make auburn happy you could do each team gets 3 permanent opponents and simply rotates the rest. You’d still play everyone every other year and at their place every 4, but I feel this would result in seriously unbalanced schedules where as the pods you could manipulate to be very balanced.

No matter how they do it there will be things to like and dislike about it. Some teams will like it and some will hate it. I do prefer two divisions. But, I would rather be with the teams in the East which I doubt would happen. So, I'm sort of torn on the whole situation.

No divisions, no pods.
Give everyone 3 permanent rivals and shuffle the scheduling from there. Best two conference records get the SEC title game.

I could actually live with that, but the West just wouldn't have much of an SEC feel, with only LSU and the Mississippi schools being OG. I guess Arkansas has been around long enough, but those other 4...
Of the original big 6, you have 5 on one side and LSU by their lonesome on the other. Sucks from a traditionalist standpoint, but new rivalries shall be born.

Biggest thing in common with all these threads?
Everyone wanting Alabama to move to the East so they don't have to play them every year.

100% and it's exactly what is going to happen.
And it's still Divisions if we end any more schools, as well.

Any conference structure that doesn’t allow for a program to play every other university in the conference both home and away in a 4 year period or less is a failure in my opinion.

We'll do whatever they say. Just feeling lucky to be tagging along at this point.

Congrats to LSU on winning the west with ease every year!
