I know SCar and Clemson, UGA and Georgia Tech, Florida and Florida State. Those are obvious. What are the others?

Probably Memphis as sad as that is.

Memphis for UT but that is primarily in basketball only. We don't really have one in football. We have played Notre Dame a lot over the years in football. Also Virginia Tech could become a big OOC rival if we were to play them frequently.

None, that I know of. Maybe Louisiana University (the ones in Monroe, Lafayette, Shreveport or some other satellite site).

The Fighting Bobby Petrino's.

If we are REALLY being honest our top 3 OOC rivals are Texas, Baylor, and Texas Tech.
You might flip Baylor with Tech since the series has been more competitive with Tech the last 20 years. Tech really didn't become big until the mid 90s though.
We've played Baylor more than anyone other than Texas. While a win vs Texas could often make the season, a loss against Baylor would ruin it. Hell, half of their most attended games are from our fans pouring into Waco to watch our boys stomp those turds into the ground.

I guess it would be Wake Forrest or Northwestern.
Our long lost ghost rival would be Sewanee. Both schools are like minded and we were the last SEC team to play them in 1944.

We don't have an OOC rival.
