This is possible, but could ultimately hurt the whole league.

Personally, I don't care that much one way or the other (except with regard to the ridiculous assertion that cross divisional games count less than divisional games). I like playing UGA every year and would prefer playing UGA, UF and UT to getting stuck with UK and Vandy.

Then LSU should have voted against expansion in 1992 and in 2012. Cross-division opponents were agreed upon by everyone in 1992, including LSU. Funny how LSU had no problem with UF being their cross-opponent back when Florida was just starting to win a few games and now bitches when UF turned into a national power. In 1992 when this was agreed upon, Tennessee was by far the best East program and Bama agreed to that with open arms.

It seems for younger fans AU is #1 and older fans it's UT...generally. Not sure what the age the split happens, maybe 50? Both are intense though, for sure.

Everyone gets it. Your argument is stupid.

If DS had started a thread about the sky being green, and no one responded as if it were a decent argument, it wouldn't mean that no one "gets it", it would mean that stupid arguments can't be responded to intelligently.

You're beginning to remind me of Cotton Hatfield.

If you gumps can't see how this is unfair, then I really see how the stereotype for you guys came to be. UF is the most successful team in the SEC,


In football? That's laughable.

Calling someone else's argument "stupid" just shows how little you actually have to contribute.

Do you really want to play UK and Vandy more often? I wish we could drop ole miss, msu, vandy and UK and just play everyone every year.

I'd say 30ish is where the split starts coming in.

Why not ? Our fanbase is significantly split.


Auburn has Bama and Georgia.
Georgia has Auburn and Florida
Florida has Florida St and Georgia,
Tennessee has Florida and 'Bama.

All of those teams have been strong, making the rivalries intense.

Compared to those. LSU hasn't had any strong rivals. I Imagine if Ole Miss was in state and constantly a top team in the SEC. LSU fans would understand then. Then they'd have Arkansas and Ole Miss.

But, If I were an LSU fan. I'd take the UF game in a heartbeat and make it one of the biggest rivalries in CFB. Just my opinion though.

And what compelling argument do you have? All I've seen you do is bitch about other people not answering your retarded question.

I'm not even close to 50, but my hatred for UT and AU are equal.

UF and UT will once be back, and when they do, the East will probably be better than ever. I think UF is ahead of UT in terms of rebuilding, but we will see.


UF is back on the upswing and I for one am happy to see it. UT and the Lame Kiff saga started them back then kicked them in the nuts. Yes, I laughed and enjoyed it but also look forward to them getting it together again. UT just has to fight thru a double reboot.
