If Auburn moves East then it means that Alabama would have to choose either TN or AU.

Putting Mizzou in the east preserves historic rivalries. It also allows Mizzou to add A&M as their cross-division rival game, helping to preserve Mizzou's Texas recruiting pipeline.
Auburn wants to go East. After the Tide, they would rather play Georgia, Florida, and Tennessee.
