Florida.

Just to make up for all the years we have missed playing them.

The SEC will expand again in the next 10 years and we will change it up. They always do.

If an 8 game schedule is permanent, we could make it work with 3 perms.

We would never leap frog Oklahoma, or A&M for that matter, to get Texas. Ole Miss is obviously taken. We would very likely wind up with Missouri since I think the SEC would keep the LSU vs A&M rivalry going as a consolation prize to the Aggies for not allowing them to pummel Texas every year.

Alabama - Auburn
Florida - Georgia
Mississippi St - Ole Miss

A few obvious pairings.

Would be interesting to see if Texas would pair with A&M or Oklahoma.

It should be Texas but they scared. But we will still play them every year anyway.

If stays at 8. They are not going to get rid of certain games.

I would take either Florida or Bama b/c of the awesome games the last 20 years or so but I still like playing Auburn, Ole Miss, Miss State and Arkansas as well. They need to do everything in their power to preserve some of the great matchups in the SEC: (at least every other year )

Aub vs Bama (Obviously)
Ole Miss vs State (Obviously)
UGA vs FLA (Obviously)
Bama vs LSU (For TV ratings alone)
Fla vs Tenn
LSU vs Aub
Tenn vs Bama
Ark vs Ole Miss (great OT games)
UK vs Tenn
UGA vs Aub
UF vs LSU
SC vs UGA
MSU vs (Arky, LSU, Aub)

South Carolina. I just enjoy our games. There’s mutual respect. And it’s the mayors cup which is much better than the battle line.

I also think there’s an argument for Arkansas or Kentucky.

Honestly, it feels weird we won’t be playing Georgia in 24’. I know they have our number, but damn. I like facing them every year.

I still like the 3 perm, 6 rotating format.
You play every SEC team every 2 years. That is much better than waiting 6 or 8 years to play a conference school.
