Georgia-Auburn game is safe | AJC - Tim Tucker - The Georgia-Auburn football rivalry, which dates to 1892, will continue. The SEC today approved a 6-1-1 format for conference football scheduling in 2013 and beyond — that is, six division games, one permanent cross-division game and one rotating division game. This means Auburn will remain on Georgia’s schedule annually. Georgia had strongly advocated a 6-1-1 schedule format, but some other schools, most vocally LSU, had argued this week that permanent cross-division opponents should be eliminated from the new format. In the end, the 6-1-1 format passed overwhelmingly, according to SEC commissioner Mike Slive.
