Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Arkansas, and the recently added A&M.

Since expansion only once has any of those teams managed to go 3-0 against the "big 3" of the West (Alabama, Auburn, LSU).

It was Arkansas in 1998 and they managed to somehow not win the division, losing the tiebreaker to Mississippi State.

Not too surprising...when was the last time both AU and Bama sucked in the same year?

Bama was 6-5, Auburn was 5-6 and LSU was 4-7 that year. The Big Three in 1998 was still Auburn, Alabama and Arkansas.

LSU replaced Arkansas circa 2000, which produced an oddity that may never be repeated.

Mississippi State defeated both SEC Championship participants (Florida and Auburn) without making the championship game.

Of course we beat everyone in the West but LSU in 2003, which would have easily gotten us to Atlanta any other year.

If the listed teams would STFU and win it then this thread wouldn't be needed.
