LSU Florida is one of my favorite games every year if not my favorite. Do NOT want to lose that game. Outside of the Spurrier years it is dead even

Yes, I want to keep it. I have been steadfast that the POD System the SEC Network reported is problematic. Just looking at it, Auburn/UGA and Texas/Texas A&M do not play. That is not happening. a 3 team permanent and 6 team rotation allows LSU to keep games that are viewed as rivals by significant numbers of all teams.
LSU's 3 permanents would be Florida, Texas A&M and Ole Miss.
Texas has Texas A&M but I think we are a solid #2 over all other teams. Ole Miss and MSU, but we are a solid #2 over all other SEC teams and while The Gators have UGA, I think LSU is clearly their #2 SEC team.
So 3 Permanents and 6 rotation in years 1 and 2 and 6 in years 3 and 4 allows for everyone to play everyone else twice (home and home) over 4 years.
You keep all the 6 Historic Big Name rivals games; Bama/AU, Bama/TENN, UGA/AU, UF/UGA, TX/TX A&M, TX/OU and 2 other important in-state games, Ole Miss and MSU (rival game) and TN/Vandy.
So yes, keep the LSU/Florida game.

I'll be downvoted, but I would prefer a more balanced schedule. We would have had a 3 way tie for the West in 2006 if not for having to play UF while Arkansas got South Carolina. The exciting games every year are nice, but I don't want it at the expense of championship opportunities.

Yes. Much rather play Florida or Auburn every year than A&m.

I love the LSU vs UF/Bama/Auburn games every year. It would suck to lose that on a yearly basis, because I hate those schools so much. However, we're all about progress, and the pod system and conference expansion is a step in the right direction. Besides, we gain a matchup every other year with UGA, UTa, & OU. I think the reshuffling is awesome. I miss not playing all of the other East teams on a regular basis. That hosting once every 12 years thing is bullshite.

For me, I definitely want to see it continue. There are rarely ever any dull games. The environments are always insane. Seriously, what more could you want? I have a friend that's a huge Gator fan. We don't talk often but regardless, we always talk shite to each other that week at the very least.

UF/LSU is one of my favorite games. Traditionally games have been very close the last 10 years and I think it's a game a majority of both fan bases circle on the calendar.
In order I'd rank my favorite games:
UF
Bama
A&M
Auburn
Ole Miss
Everyone else

Absolutely. I hate Florida. I grew up on LSU vs Spurrier so I am a jaded LSU fan. I look forward to that game every year. Florida can KMA.

if the SEC moves to a 3 permanent opponents / rotate the rest ...
Florida should keep LSU & Georgia with Auburn being restored to UF's yearly schedule.
LSU should keep Florida, Arkansas, Ole Miss.

It's one of the best series in the conference. Hard nosed with so many close tense games.
Not easy for either though so while some deal with patsies these two have to dish it out every year. I don't mind some balance in that regard.
