Why? In what way does it affect them? They still play each other once in the year. & they haven't been dominating the conference like everyone thought. It doesn't make since for everybody else to have to deal w/all the travel to appease those 2. Especially when realignment was done to please mainly those 2.
I want to see the old rivalries back. Has the SEC been hurt because Auburn & Bama are in the same division? Florida & Georgia? I understood the "logic" when they did this @ the beginning. Though I didn't agree w/it even back then. But the landscape has changed. They should align things were they make more since & gain back some of the tradition. Especially if they are looking to change things anyway.
