Florida-LSU
Tennessee-Alabama

Georgia-Auburn
Kentucky-Miss. St.
Vandy-Ole Miss.

That seems unlikely. It would be hard to justify shaking up the schedule of the entire conference that much just to preserve one game every 2 years. Bama Tenn really isn't the Iron Bowl, OU/Texas, or Michigan/Ohio State. It's a cool rivalry, but I can't imagine it being a deal-breaker.
