I've been thinking this for awhile now. A lot of his tweets recently seem like they are just something he saw somebody post on here.

I'd rather see aTm, LSU, Ole Miss, and MSU in a division, but I'm not sure how you make it work out.
Easy. Add OU, OSU/KU to go with Ark and MU.

And they were actually real rivals playing meaningful games. I know he was serious, but I still laughed when I read that the SEC would want to save LSU/Miss St

Yeah. Anyone who thinks the LSU/MSU, LSU/Ole Miss games are rivalries are kidding themselves. LSU/MSU has never been relevant and the LSU/Ole Miss game hasn't meant anything since 1960.

given my preference I would definitely keep LSU games against Ole Miss, Alabama, and Auburn but I'm not religiously against them being dropped as every year affairs

2003.
When was the last time tenn/bama meant anything?

His logic is basically where it breaks down completely. Everything is an evolution of the prior incarnation. The Rose Bowl will be preserved at all costs. The B1G and the Pac 12 have power too. This douche bag's perspective is all based on the SEC.
Here is my take on it.

And I know I'm right.

Two divisions of eight seems much more practical.

As much as Virginia did for Va Tech to get them in the ACC when the ACC targeted other schools, no way either of them leave each other.
I could see NC State look to leave UNC and Duke because they will always be third fiddle in the most important basketball foothole ever.

With two divisions of eight you no longer have just two divisions - you functionally have two different conferences
there are only going to be 8 conference games for the foreseeable future (ADs/schools are not willing to give up paydays). With 8 schools in a division you would only have one game against an opponent from the opposite division. So then you either have a single fixed opponent (to keep bama/tenn, auburn/uga) and never play the other seven teams... or you rotate home/away series and it takes you 16 years to complete a single rotation.
So I disagree with that being a rational solution

How about eight divisions of two four teams claiming "division" titles is ridiculous.

I understand that knee jerk reaction but I think it is just a knee jerk reaction.
The NFL has nothing but four team divisions. Does the SEC have the parity you see in the NFL? Obviously not. But the scheduling would be a lot more rational with four divisions than it is with two divisions with eight teams

I know it's a pipe dream, but I'd rather Tennessee play in the same division as Alabama, even if it means the division is more difficult.

Paragraphs like the above are why I hate Clay Travis. He gives you obvious information in his articles and then toots his own horn like his Vandy degree was in predicting the future. He tries to play this "I tell you what the media won't" card and he comes out looking like a douche.
And often, he comes out looking uninformed. Like when he said Tennessee was going to get hammered by the NCAA.
