re: [Dellenger] From speaking to league insiders, this is our best guess of the three rivals

I think the SEC will put A&M-Texas on Thanksgiving

Playing anyone on Thanksgiving day or night is idiotic. The NFL owns Thanksgiving. You have to quit living in the past.

We may not even play Texas on the final weekend if the permanent rival rumors are right. If LSU's permanent opponents are Bama, Ole Miss, and A&M, they probably have to play one of those 3 the final weekend, and the first two are not going to happen. The only way to avoid that would be if none of OU, Arkansas, Missouri, and LSU have a fixed opponent on the final weekend and rotate among each other. I think it's going to be A&M-LSU, Arkanasas-Texas, OU-Missouri on the final weekend. Pairing OU and Missouri would give them the option of rekindling old rivalries with Oklahoma State and Kansas if both schools wanted to do that the final weekend.
