Every SEC school has another FBS team in their state that isn't in the SEC. (except Missouri)
UGA
Plays GT every year
Florida
Plays Florida State every year
ETA: Playing Miami in 13
South Carolina
Plays Clemson every year
Kentucky
Last played Louisville in 12
Last played Western Kentucky in 12
LSU
Last played ULL in 09
Last played ULM in 10
Last played LA Tech in 09
Last played Tulane in 09
Tennessee
Last played Memphis in 10
Last played Middle Tennessee in 11
Vanderbilt
Last played Middle Tennessee in 05
Last played Memphis in 89
Mississippi State
Playing Southern Miss in 14
(to my knowledge)
Alabama has never played UAB or Troy
Auburn has never played Troy and hasn't played UAB since 96.
Ole Miss hasn't played Southern Miss since 1984.
Why are Alabama, Auburn, and Ole Miss scared of playing in-state opponents (that aren't in the SEC)?
Updated: From a popular question that keeps appearing, did Texas A&M leave their conference because of having to play in-state rival Texas every year?

What happened when LSU played UAB?

It's not fear. The big schools have way less to gain from playing the smaller schools.

Frick UAB. That's why. Don't want to give the whiny little bitches the exposure.
UAB is one of the few schools that would cause me to pull for Auburn if they played.

You're forgetting the biggest one..Arkansas and Arkansas State never play.

You didn't even mention Texas A&M, who was so scared of Texas that they ran away

There is already another thread for that, which is why I did not include it in this one.

I always heard that Southern Miss didn't want to travel to Oxford. Wanted the game in Jackson. I don't know if that is true or not. But if it is...frick Southern Miss.
