I disagree, if the better team was staying home it’s because they weren’t good enough to win their division, why should a team that did win their division not get recognized as such?
Divisional play is far superior than lumping everybody into 1 category and calling it a day. When you have a single table the season becomes pretty boring for half the teams halfway through the season because by then they have little to play for other than a bowl game.
With divisions it gives you variability and it gives many teams a chance to either win or tie their smaller division which then gets them into the SEC championship game. In short it allows teams further down the food chain more opportunities to get into the championship game. That’s a win for everybody long term.
But hey, I guess we can keep the single table if folks want half the teams checking out given a 14 team league.

What you are talking about is AQ status based on group of teams whose strength varies from year to year and says nothing about how good the actual team is. The SEC and every other conference with divisions has had multiple shitty championships because of these things.
For example, 2011. The 2 best teams in the SEC were clearly LSU and Alabama. But we instead had to put in a team from the East and had to have it settled in the NCG, where AQ status did not exist and they took the 2 best teams.
In 2017, not only did Georgia also lose to Auburn that year, the same as Alabama, they got beat pretty badly. Yet for no other reason than Georgia being in the weaker division Georgia was the team that got the rematch against Auburn in the SECCG.
So you explain to me what the frick a division really means and why it's so important rather than just a group they assigned for arbitrary reason I'll consider changing my mind on the topic. To me, it's just DEI type bullshite where teams are rewarded for mediocracy and I'm a man of meritocracy so best teams is what I want to see.

Because it provides more entertainment to the league as a whole and gives more teams a chance. You say you don’t want to see these games, well I don’t want to see Bama and LSU play for the 3rd fricking time in a year. It’s not baseball, it’s not a best of fricking 7. If LSU can’t beat them the first time then frick LSU, a team from the east should be given the chance.
The other problem you are going to run into is what happens in the premier league, only 4 teams matter in the league and nobody gives a frick about the rest and they die because they have zero chance in the league, it’s decided before half the year is over. That’s because of the single table format and it’s boring as hell. I don’t want to see LSU and Bama 10 years in a row.
With divisions other teams have opportunities and that’s what makes the league interesting.

Alabama and LSU wouldn't have played for a 3rd time in a year because the winner would have went on to play Oklahoma St in the national championship.
Basically your entire argument is just one of envy and because of that you want entitlement to the accomplishments of others. Again, no different than the general DEI/woke movement in general.
Your "creating opportunities" is 100% bullshite. You aren't creating opportunities AT ALL. The same amount of opportunities exist, you want to away opportunities from some and give them to others.
And the weird thing is that your argument in what you claim is the benefit is actually false. It was with divisions that things were often settled early, and last year without divisions things to the end with multiple teams having a chance.
Because it turns out meritocracy is great and you people full of envy are a plague on society. Earn the shite and stop devaluing accomplishments so that you can pretend otherwise.

Rivalries are one of the key ingredients of college football. One more thing getting screwed up right now.
If I wanted to watch the NFL, I'd watch the NFL.

It’s weird that you bring up DEI/Woke, that’s basically admitting that your argument is shite and that you would prefer to act like a petulant child incapable of having a conversation. Here is a news flash, things are changing dramatically in our country and stupidly trying to blame DEI for everything you disagree with just identifies you as another MAGA sheep whose time is getting shorter and shorter. As a suggestion, you need to start paying attention to what is going on before it’s too late for your and your family.

All indications are that the trend of college football is for the SEC and Big10 to eat everyone up, setting things up for an NFC/AFC analog

Maybe, I think we end up with one league that separates when it’s all said and done. That way all the players are under the same rules. Just a matter of how long the sec and big ten can go without stabbing each other in the back. Spoiler alert it won’t take long

I think a better move would be to expel LSU and watch our conference GPA go up exponentially.....if you really put some thought into it, LSU only offers us the aroma of corn dogs and beer belly rednecks...

It's not my fault your arguments and view of society are based on envy. It's not surprising to me you're someone who ain't done shite in life and believes in using the government to steal from others. It's not a coincidence that I was right in your general support of things like DEI, your ignorance goes well beyond politics.
And for the record, I'm a libertarian, and Trump won the election you stupid frick.

Look, let’s be honest, if they vanished from the SEC tomorrow, the conference wouldn’t skip a beat—same as Missouri, but they’re never worth mentioning anyway so that’s another story.
Typical coonass logic.
Thanks for mentioning Mizzou, even though we're not worth mentioning.
He ain't wrong, even if the ole piss hit job seemed a little over the top. It's just the rebs.

I’m independent, could care less about politics and your ignorant views, it’s sheep like you who are the real problem in this country. Stand up for yourself, ad a libraretard you should be more concerned than most.
