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


The "natural" SEC rival for UNC is USC. Could be played in Charlotte as a neutral site game.

Well yours are not that great either.

But the USC thing would NEVER happen as a rivalry!
USC has 9 conf games, ND rivalry, which ND will never give up, plus the BIG and PAC enter into a conf rotation in 2016.

Plus there is no rivalry with LSU at all and you can't force it , because there is nothing to build on, geographic, culture, nothing! It's like y'all always complain about the UF game as you can't make a Rivaly, well USC would be worse!

I'd be down with this. Would help AU with recruiting in South Florida. We used to be strong there back when Eddie Gran was at Auburn.

you probably aren't aware but LSU and USC played a spectacular home and away series about three decades ago... then again you might have heard of it because that's about the only time period in college football that Georgia fans have reason to study in any depth.

2 games is not a rivalry ... Look at USC schedule and what's coming , and what adamant age does LSU , Alabama or any other sec team bring for an annual game.... NOTHING!

They're saying we've played Baylor more than we've played anyone in the SEC.

Which is technically also inaccurate since A&M and Arkansas have played 70 times.

Actually ... it's more NC State historically. SCAR and NC State was the real ugly rivalry behind the Clemson game, not UNC. UNC was basketball, but not football or baseball so much.

Neutral site games are like the proverbial kissing your sister. Not a home game ... but still an away game. Revenues are greatly decreased to the tune of something like 60% depending upon the revenue split agreement. And the North Carolina schools all hate playing us in Charlotte because Charlotte is more of a SCAR/SEC town, and closer to Columbia, than it is to the RTP.

Bama should be paired against Notre Dame. No one else makes sense.

Notre Dame fans are awful, quiet, and snobbish. I'm not sure why you desire to associate with them.
