Yep, UGA is getting off easy by having Au as their permanent SECW cross game. Where is the outrage from all the Florida fans?

Until the SEC ends the unfair permanent opponent rule, they need to keep complaining.
Why shouldn't they exercise their First Amendment Rights?

In case you're forgetting. I'm a Florida fan. We play LSU every year. We also play FSU OOC every year.
How many of these threads have Florida fans started?
If you don't like it, leave. SEC, frick YEA!

Playing FSU is up to you, So what? The outcome of that game has no bearing on the winner of the SEC East.
There are now three perennial powers in the SEC West, and only one of them plays the #1 perennial power from the SEC East every year--your Gators.
If you don't understand the competitive advantage Bama and TAM now have, you don't understand college football.

Alabama only has one team. Also you should figure out what perennial means before identifying A&M as a perennial power.

Who, before last year, had a 15-11 combined record the previous two seasons. No complaints from Auburn, who has played the SEC East champion the previous two years. Or from Arkansas.
Face it, this an LSU issue about Alabama, not about cross-divisional opponents.

I can't figure out why an Ohio state fan is concerned with the SEC east.

How long has it been since the #1 perennial power from the SEC east made it to the SECCG?

Look at the perennial powers of the new dominate SEC.
Florida--one of the three biggest states in recruits, but just now coming back from the departure of Meyer.
Georgia--one of the four biggest states in recruits, but Georgia has the weakest recruiting program of all the perennial SEC powers
Texas--TAM is now even with Longhorns in one of the three biggest states for recruits
Bama--The best recruiting program for the past four years with Saban
Louisiana--As long as LSU keeps getting 85 to 90% of its best blue-chip talent every year, they remain a perennial power.
If you know anything about college football, you should know a strong recruiting base is required to be a perennial power.
TAM is for real!

Even if they won every game by 75 points last year they wouldn't be a perennial power.

You are an LSU fan masquerading as an OSU fan. You should definitely be using "we" rather than " they."
And el oh fricking ele at calling A&M a perennial power. One year where they didn't even get to a BCS bowl does not make a perennial power.

Sorry, but you are naïve if you think the conference is going to be any more equitable in creating a conference rotation than with the current system.

The fact that sheetbend thinks he is fooling anyone with his OSU tags is a freaking joke. It is quite obvious he is a LSU fan. He is just looking foolish.

Why not let SEC schools who are bent on keeping cross divisional rivalries an annual event, play them as non-conference games?
Because 11 of the 14 schools in the SEC want to keep the permenant cross-divisional games. Barnhart interviewed Ole Miss, Vandy, MSU, UK, & UF and they all want to keep them. Also starting next year, Mizzou & Arky will be permenant games. Add the Bama/UT & UGA/auburn games, and you have 11 teams that want to keep them. The only teams that want to do away with them are LSU, USCe, & aTm.
So LSU is in the VAST (and I'm emphasising vast) minority in doing away with them. This is a conference of 14 teams, not a conference of just LSU. So...
So quit the non-stop whinning because you think you are the only school in the SEC. It is getting really old.

To be fair we don't have a natural rivalry with any Western team so it wouldn't bother us but I think having to travel all the way to Arkansas and now all the way to Texas every other year sucks for fans simply due to the distance. On top of Mizzou being in the East now means we have to go to Mizzou or A&M at least once a year and that's just one hell of an annual haul.

Hiding behind the permanent opponent non-divisional games is an SEC tradition.
I didn't realize how many chicken shite programs there really are in the SEC--who knew?
