That was done strictly for Alabama and Tennessee. For many years lsu fans and administrators were p!$$ed that they had to play Florida every year and their competition would have Vanderbilt and South Carolina. So that’s a very good example of exactly why most feel that doesn’t work. Most SEC schools want to do away with the common opponent but Alabama has that much stroke.
What he said has been known for decades. Alabama and Tennessee, Auburn and Georgia. LSU fans hate being paired with Florida who has been the top East program for decades until the recent Georgia rise. They especially think that the two Mississippi teams have gotten a pass on their permanent East opponents
