    Alabama going to run the table this year. Georgia and Ohio State could beat them, but it will be a tall order. In 2019 and beyond SEC is going to between Alabama and Georgia until someone else can get their act together.

    Georgia and auburn are the only two cross rivals who want to play each other. Let those keep their game and rotate everyone else.

    Alabama would want to keep it because it’s an easy W every year. I guarantee you that tenenesse couldn’t care less

    Tennessee is basically South Carolina now. They’re behind Florida and light years behind Georgia. Tennessee high school football stinks so they have to go out of state and into Atlanta, South Carolina, Virginia, Charolette, Florida. Problem is Georgia, Alabama, Clemson, Auburn, FSU, Florida and now teams in the Big 10 out recruit them in those areas. They’re left with the scraps compared to what they were getting in the past. No more Jamal Lewis’s and Albert Haynesworths. Throw in a clueless administration and it’s a recipe for disaster.

    Some of these schools are actually required by law to play FCS teams. Not joking

    Missouri’s rival is Kansas.

    Now it’s Arkansas.

    nobody in Georgia gives a shit about Missouri
