I can’t say I like Jay Jacobs’ answer here, but at least he’s more honest about it than Greg McGarity:
(Do you favor an 8-game or 9-game SEC schedule?)
“My thoughts are eight games in the SEC, knowing we have a championship game, that’s enough. We’re the most competitive league in the nation, and playing those eight games has proven to be what is best for each institution and what is best for the SEC, if you gauge it by national championships won.”
(That being said, there’s plenty of incoherent bullshit in that interview, unless you really believe that Jacobs knew when he hired Chizik that Auburn’s next two recruiting classes were going to fall by the wayside as they have. Oh, yeah, and Brian VanGorder was Chizik’s first choice all along, even though “… we didn’t know that Brian was going to be an option.” Whatever.)
Just one question in a short interview, so perhaps not entirely fair to characterize his position by that one statement, but clearly omitted was any mention of “…we MUST preserve our rivalry with Georgia.”
Maybe we are the only ones who care.

After our last game with Auburn, do you blame him? I now think that they have terror in their eyes when our name is mentioned. And we will probably park another one on them this year.
