Yep. I'm hearing divisions will likely be:

West - OU, Texas, A&M, Arky

South - LSU, Ole Miss, Miss St. Florida

North - Mizzou, Kentucky, Tenn, Vandy

East - Bama, Auburn, UGA, SCAR




I’m ok with this

I think pods with a 9 game conference schedule is the best way to go, over a 4 year period all teams will have a home and away with all the other teams

They created rivalries with LSU/Ark and Mizzou/Ark so that better be the division-
LSU

Texas

Sorry that’s too SWC for LSU. Those aren’t LSUs rivals

They’re more than likely going to have a cross pod fixed opponent.

Eta yeah I’d like Texas schools, Ole Piss and perm game with Florida

It would be a great thing since we have interstates and planes now and the teams don’t take trains to the others school anymore.

IMO

I just don’t want LSU stuck with all western schools without a traditional team like Ole Miss

I'm fine getting rid of divisions but think the idea of the 4 team pod is stupid. Just give each team 2 permanent rivals. No need for 4 as no team in this conference has more than 2 legitimate rivals. Keep permanent opponents to a bare minimum if we are getting rid of divisions altogether.

Bama: Auburn and Tennessee
Auburn: Bama and Georgia
Texas: Oklahoma and aTm
Oklahoma: Texas and Arkansas
Tennessee: Bama and Florida
Georgia: Auburn and Florida
aTm: Texas and LSU
Ole Miss: Miss St and LSU
Miss St: Ole Miss and South Carolina
Florida: Georgia and Tennessee
Arkansas: Mizzou and Oklahoma
Mizzou: Arkansas and Kentucky
LSU: aTm and Ole Miss
South Carolina: Miss St and Vandy
Kentucky: Vandy and Mizzou
Vandy: Kentucky and South Carolina

As long as we aren’t in an old SWC pod I’m happy. We joined the SEC for a reason.

What part of the SEC wants teams to play one another more often do you not understand?

Cotton Pod:
Arkansas
Mizzou
Oklahoma
tu

Magnolia Pod:
LSU
Ole Miss
Texas A&M
Vanderbilt

Dixie Pod:
Alabama
Kentucky
Mississippi State
Tennessee

Peach Pod:
Auburn
Florida
Georgia
South Carolina

Permanent Cross Pod Rivalries:
Alabama/Auburn
Ole Miss/Mississippi State
Texas A&M/tu
Tennessee/Vanderbilt

The other 8 rotate.

You can still maintain 8 games. Very easy.
