This is a carry over from another thread as I was doing some digging.

Georgia hasn't played @ Alabama since 2007

Georgia hasn't played @ LSU since 2008

They play neither in 2012.


Fail Fail Fail

Who the fuck schedules the SEC? Adding two programs now and watch this gap Increase.


:burt:


The SEC rocks ... I don't like it, but they are the best. Trust me, if Georgia is good enough (and I think they are), they will play LSU or Alabama.

It is annoying that the schedules can turn out so unfair at times but it happens. I was hoping the SEC would go to 16 teams and then do 4 divisions.

The reason being we would have maybe 3-4 teams we play every year and switch up even more, that way you get to play more teams, different teams often.

But with 16 teams, 4-4 divisions, 8 conference games a year... it would take 6 seasons to complete the rotation. For instance, with Ole Miss in another division, UGA wouldn't play them again until 2018 or 19.

Maybe Georgia should schedule UTEP. They looked like a strong team against Oklahoma.

ouch


but seriously, i would like to see another conference game and have two rotating cross-division games a year

but the champ game does help a bit too

I would hate being in a conference where my team goes 2 or 3 years without playing one of our major rivals.

Oh that's right, we're IN that conference right now.

Do you not have an annual rival from the other division? Like UGA/Auburn, Alabama/Tennessee, etc?

We play all of our rivals every year. UF in our division, Auburn in the West, and GT in OOC obviously. Plus our secondary rivals SCAR & UT are both in our division.

Minnesota. But our best, most enjoyable(and frustrating) rivalry for the last 20 years has been Iowa. Minnesota has given us scares once in a while, and they play their best game every year for the axe, but Iowa was our #1 rival. We no longer play them annually.

Not at all. LSU was a great team. Is my point wrong? Do you all not sit around holding hands and chanting with each other? Do you not root for Florida? Do you not root for the rest of your TEAM SEC?

I guess the school or conference could only pick one. In UGA's case they got it right, as Georgia & Auburn have been playing for so long & there is a long connection between the two... but the SEC has some fucked up annual rivals too, like UF/LSU. I guess everyone can't be happy when splitting into divisions.

No, I don't... and like a broken record I have expressed that dozens of times.

True. I hate the NCAA for the division rule, though. They should have let us host championship games a decade ago.
