Move to a nine game schedule already. I'm in agreement with Saban. Fewer shite opponents, more sec games. Other conferences do it and it'll happen eventually

Finally. Mizzou makes so much more sense in the West. I am pumped. I think this will help with some of the "Mizzou is a bad fit for the SEC" complaints.

"It makes more sense for Auburn from the demographics of our students," Jacobs said of flipping Auburn to the East. "Six to eight years ago, I looked at our demographics and most all of our students come from Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, South Carolina and Kentucky.
& where your students are from has WHAT to do with which division you're in? Your school is STILL LOCATED IN ALABAMA!!!

Although it would make zero sense I would prefer Kentucky in the west over Missouri. Would make for great away games going to Orlando one year and Lexington the next year

Hey Tuscaloosa doing good these days working too hard for an old guy. Hope you are doing well. You finished up the licensure to fly?

Dye still tells Jacobs what to do and think. Also, the sky is still blue

Somehow it goes over everybody's head that our schedule would be tougher if we got the scenario we wanted
No doubt it would be. They'd have Bama,Tenn,Florida,UGA,a power 5 ooc team,a random sec west team which could be strong, and probably LSU or Bama again in the sec championship if they'd make it.

TSIO matches the traditional best two SEC programs. All other considerations are secondary to preserving the SEC's crown jewel rivalry.
So about 10-15 years till that's no longer true?

Dye told him to hire Kirby Smart. How did that work out?

Auburn should be in the East. Our traditional rivals are TN, FL, and GA. It's better and shorter road trips for our students and fan base. I hope JJ can pull it off.

So they would have floridas schedule? Interesting

Y'all can try and spin it anyway you want. But it all boils down to Bama.

Um, how 'bout LSU and the big elephant in the room? And Tennefrickingsee is more of a traditional rival than the afore-mentioned?!?!
I'm gonna laugh now.
