So?

If they are the two best teams why does that matter?
I know from a TV standpoint, but from a competition standpoint why?

No divisions, no pods.

Give everyone 3 permanent rivals and shuffle the scheduling from there. Best two conference records get the SEC title game.

Are you concerned at all about “balanced” schedules?

I could actually live with that, but the West just wouldn't have much of an SEC feel, with only LSU and the Mississippi schools being OG. I guess Arkansas has been around long enough, but those other 4...

Of the original big 6, you have 5 on one side and LSU by their lonesome on the other. Sucks from a traditionalist standpoint, but new rivalries shall be born.

Biggest thing in common with all these threads?

Everyone wanting Alabama to move to the East so they don't have to play them every year.

Play your 3 division game and 6 others. In 4 years you play at every schools place and they come to you.

100% and it's exactly what is going to happen.

And it's still Divisions if we end any more schools, as well.

Any conference structure that doesn’t allow for a program to play every other university in the conference both home and away in a 4 year period or less is a failure in my opinion.

Nope.

You can't plan long term for a balanced schedule.

Just b/c a school is traditionally good (example: Tennessee) doesn't mean they always will be.

Plus if there really is going to be that much crying about balancing the schedules you are FAR more likely to keep them balanced w/a 3 permanent rival/rotate everyone else system than it will be with pods and divisions.

Vandy would represent most years only if we make a private school division and a public school division.

Most…
