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.

This is the truth right here. I get they should be with the East because of geographical location, but its honestly about taking advantage of the weak East. Auburn would be a top 2 East team every year.

As a lowly Arkansas team, who sucks, I'd rather their competitiveness stay in the West.

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”.

See, this stuff is fluid. With Ole Miss and LSU on probation and Georgia on the upswing, the East is now badass.

Try to keep up.

frick that shite, Rabern and Irons Puppet swear the East is shite, IP has been preaching this shite since Kirby took control. There’s no way Auburn AD is beating a fricking drum to move East.

Auburn wants to play the biggest and the badest mother’s in the SEC, they ain’t afraid. They damn sure don’t want the easy road in the East.
