Where do you stand on SEC Realignment?

If you could reshape this league, who would you add and who would you subtract? Would you go back to twelve or even ten teams? Sixteen? What about going back to the days of the old southern conference? Would anyone take Louisville over UK?Clemson over SC? What do you favor, a stronger league or TV markets? If you've got Slive's job, what's your vision for the next ten years?

10 teams

The conference is fine as is, was fine at 12 too, I was never in support of going to 14.
If anything it's too large, further expansion would just dillute everything.
It's hard to argue you're "special" when you have 20 damn teams.

Kick out Vandy, bring Clemson

I would go back to ten teams, play everyone, and not have a championship game.

Leave Vandy alone.
Realign the conference so Auburn is in the East.

If we expand the footprint then UNC & VT.
If that isn't counted then FSU & Clemson.

Clemson brings almost nothing new to the table.

VT and UNC...move Missouri and Vandy to the west; Alabama and Auburn to the east so they can have all their traditional rivalries....

Kick out aTm and Mizzu.
If stuck at 14 I'd switch Mizzu and Auburn's division alignment.
frick having to go to Missouri AND College Station every other year. You'd think the bozos in Birmingham could figure out a way to split the missouri and aTm trips up
We're the farthest east school in the conference, our travel miles are gonna look like West Virginia's having to make both those trips every other year.

Why hasn't this been done yet? AU would automatically get UGA every year and BAMA would be AU's permanent west opponent. Nothing else really changes. Then you put Mizzou in the west, right? Just makes more since geographically. I guess Alabama/Tenn would be in Jeopardy but do you guys still want to play that game? Not trying to start talking shite about schedules, just wonder if either school even cares anymore.

I liked it with 10 teams.

I will like it with 14 IF we get 9 or 10 game conference schedule.

No more schools that don't care about football. Arkansas Missouri Kentucky South Carolina just dilute the football in the conference.

I'd like to see us stick to the same teams (maybe switch Mizzou with FSU, WVU, UL, or Clemson) and just realign divisions into the South Division and the Deep South division.

The way Bama fans have clung to the UT game I wouldn't be surprised to see Auburn move to the East with Bama keeping UT as the permanent cross division game.
Auburn-Bama has only been played consecutively since what? 1950?

Go back to 12 teams (i think a 14 team conference is too much)

I think most people need to realize that every pond needs fish big and small. Why add more big fish just to take away wins from our big fish, as well as those we're adding?

Eat a dick. Both fan bases are clearly passionate about football.
