Should Georgia replace Tennessee in the TSIO?

Georgia/Bama is clearly the preeminent modern day rivalry in the SEC. Georgia has now won two in a row vs Bama and the last 6 games are an even 3-3 split. Tennessee hasn’t won two in a row vs Bama since 03/04. Bama had won 17 of the last 20 against Tennessee.
Tennessee’s last national and SEC title happened in 98. Since then Georgia has 6 SEC titles and 2 national titles. Tennessee has 1 playoff appearance and zero wins. Georgia has 5 playoff appearances and 3 national titles.
I understand every team pales in comparison to Bama, but Tennessee is approaching 30 years of never being a national title contender. Why not give the marquee rivalry the TSIO moniker and let Tennessee play a team more on their level that day?

After watching a couple of Tennessee’s games this year, I can say that I have no concerns about our game in Knoxville this year. I haven’t been able to feel that way since the Derek Dooley days.

Just one of several Tennessee coaches with multiple TSIOs under his belt and not a single victory

Tennessee has more wins against Bama than any other program. Enjoy going winless again in the SEC buddy

It’s unfortunate that we don’t get to beat tenner for a 10th year in a row. Guess we will just have to do that to Aubie instead. Man what a time to be alive.

It isnt the worst question.
UGA has improved to 3-2 against Alabama over the last 5 games in Tuscaloosa.
Kirby and Richt have more than held their own.

Nick Saban ain’t coaching anymore and did that to nearly every SEC opponent considering he only lost 14 SEC games

2015 was in Athens. Not Tuscaloosa.
3-2 record in Tuscaloosa for Richt and Kirby.

Tennessee and Arkansas could be a new rivalry.

Bama is not a rival or UGA. There is no hatred going in either direction for the matchup. I have no problem cheering for Bama if them winning helps UGA. I hope Florida and GT (and to a lesser extent Auburn) lose every game they play even if them winning might be good for UGA.
The Bama games are like games against LSU when they are good. A strong opponent you want your team to defeat because they're good... but not a team you think much about after that.
