re: Would you consider a yearly game a rivalry after 4 years?

Better than A&M for us...which makes no sense. But they had to be stuck with someone from the East.

Here's my preference:

Drop permanent cross division rivals, but if we have to keep them:

Alabama-Tennessee
Auburn-Georgia
LSU-Kentucky
Texas A&M-Florida
Ole Miss-Vandy (I guess)
Miss. St-South Carolina
Arkansas-Missouri

I rather have Arkansas back than play A&M, at least there was some history there in that we joined the league together.
