Since 2000 LSU has played Florida and Georgia 19 times and Alabama has played them eight times. That is a competitive disadvantage. There are a lot of other examples.

LSU gets Florida, Auburn gets Georgia and Alabama gets Tennessee. Now Tennessee should improve, but the HS FB in Georgia and Florida will make them stronger. This is little old secret behind Bama's recent dominance their SEC schedules have been easier than LSU.

LSU is right on the money. The SEC and ACC should do the following as long as they keep divisions have any teams from other divisions that want to keep their protected rival games continue playing annually, but teams that don't want annual protected games rotate those games with teams from the other division.

Thus these games would be saved.
SEC
Tennessee-Alabama
Georgia-Auburn
Missouri-Arkansas
ACC
Wake Forest-Duke
NC State-North Carolina
Florida State-Miami
Clemson-Georgia Tech
then the rest would be scrapped and you would get more cross-divisional matchups.
