Alabama and Georgia Tech were pretty huge rivals when they were in the SEC, especially in the 50s and 60s. It'd be nice to see that rivalry renewed.

Can we start shaming SDS posts like we do Bleacher Report?

Hopefully. They've been churning out SEC articles for every thought that pops in to their mind and most are pretty bad.

For actual team evaluations yes. But it's the off season. Stupid shite like this make good discussion points

I've wanted to play USC for years now. I actually got really jealous when I heard bama was scheduled to play them.

They are playing in Dallas. No jealousy required.

Yeah I know. LSU has worn out Dallas lately but it's still pretty cool. Now a home and home would be insane, but sadly you don't see those too much anymore.

I don't know about a rivalry, but Bama ~ Stanford would be one hell of a game.

Sadly Auburn and USC had a home and home in the early 2000's and we lost both. I also didn't have money to make the trip out there so it sucked all around.

I know Arkansas had one back in the mid 2000s I think. They got the shite beat out of them both times

Stupid and wrong shite. I don't know how you get something like this wrong:

The Hogs have played more games against Baylor than any SEC school (69).


108 for A&M vs. BU.

Gotta admit, though, he did a nice job with those pairings. I'd watch every one of those.

The articles OOC as rivalries except for a few are ridiculous. LSU and USCw. h and h rivalry , every year? Yeah that's cheap!

My take...
UF-FSU
UGA-GT
USC-CLEMSON
UT-VT
UK-UofL
VANDY-WAKE
MIZZ-Kansas

Bama-UNC
AU-KSU
LSU-WVU
ARKY-OU
OM-OK st
MSU-TT
TAmu-Texas

* not really crazy about LSU-WVU, first thought UNC might be a better Rivaly for them , but nothing looked good with Bama.

This would evenly match rivalrous between B12 and ACC.
I left out any potent entail rivalries with B10 and OAC , because they are about to start and annual conf match up in 16 I think.

I still don't see how Alabama and Ohio State are perfect rivals.

Bama should be against OK

No way Miss State agrees to another guaranteed loss every year

UNC could be a suitable foe for someone like MS or Tenn

BUT - if UNC ever gets their shite together, they have the resources to be a football power

these are fine

Other than A&M/Texas (which was obvious) these are terrible.

LSU playing WVU? Because you don't think they should go all the way to Los Angeles? Do you know how much harder it is to travel to WVU compared to LA? Geez.

Anyway I'd wonder about something like:

A&M/Texas
LSU/USC
Bama/OU
Auburn/Miami
Arkansas/Ok State
Ole Miss/Virginia (nice parties)
MSU/Texas Tech or North Carolina

A&M vs Baylor
LSU vs Texas makes more sense to me


Two state powers vs two "tier 2's"

I would love to see LSU vs. WVU. And I would love to read all about the crazy stories between the fanbases.
