What is it with some of you Ole Miss fans and LSU. You all play Alabama this week in Tuscaloosa. This is not the 1950's or 1960's, the era of LSU/Ole Miss that my Father and Uncles followed.

How would Ole Miss fans, like you, deal with a situation where in a 9 game SEC schedule, LSU and Ole Miss do not play?

In fact, there is no SEC game that LSU has to play, there are only games that should be or probably should be played. My view as an LSU fan in the new 16 team SEC, the only games that Have to be played are:

1) Bama/Auburn
2) UGA/Florida
3) Auburn/Florida
4) Ole Miss/Miss. State

and 2 involving Texas

5) Texas/OU
6) Texas/Texas A&M

Now what are games that should be played,

7) TENN/Bama and I would say TENN/Vandy since that is a game that TENN for recruiting and alumni reasons would want to play in Nashville every other year

For LSU, there are no games that must be played. Our AD (Woodward) has on record stated that when the SEC goes to 9 games he can't imagine LSU not playing Alabama so that is 1 game that He thinks should be played (He did not say it must be played). I think he is also on record saying that LSU and Texas A&M should be played, Houston is a major LSU alumni area, maybe larger than any other area other than the New Orleans and Baton Rouge areas. DFW is another one.

So for the 3rd game, Ole Miss maybe should be played (and older guard LSU alums and fans would be the group that would want this), but there are arguments from other LSU fans that it could just as easily be Florida, Miss. State, or even Arkansas.
