Currently, a few SEC teams have a rival from another conference they play annually. (UK, UGA, UF, SC)

I think those are the only ones at present. If you were the SEC commissioner and you HAD to assign an OOC opponent for the other members, who would you choose? Feel free to select one for each, or just select for whomever you feel like putting on the spot. Carry on.

A&M - Texas.

Once Texas is SEC ready, then…

A&M - Baylor

LSU-ND (not because of kelly, but because they seem to play pretty frequently)

Are we choosing geographically-based teams like the above parenthetically mentioned? I’d rather not have to watch LSU vs Tulane every year

Before the conference realignment, I would’ve said Oklahoma or Texas. Bama’s matchup would need to be another program that frequently competes for titles and has similar tradition or one that we have a long history with, so that leaves only a few choices:

Ohio State
Michigan
USC
Notre Dame
Maybe Clemson…

I know I'm in the minority of Aggies for this opinion but I liked playing tech.

It's hard to beat all you can eat Tortillas and loose women every other year.

If there were no restrictions and pre-SEC additions, I’d probably say Texas.

Thereafter, I think TCU would be a solid OOC since we recruit that area pretty well and there’s nothing worth playing in Miss, Bama, Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, or the Houston area that would make sense.

Wouldn’t mind FSU, but they already play Florida.

Purely selfish choice of this LSU fan in Oklahoma is OU.

Most reasonable one is probably Tulane.

If that's the case then Hawaii and get an extra game every season.

At least LSU would win 10 out of 10 of that matchup.
