re: 2024 SEC schedule

I was worried about this. With A&M-Texas returning to Thanksgiving weekend, it means mathematically LSU has to have Arkansas be its permanent end of the year rival. I don't see how else it could play out that would make any sense... Very sad we are going to be forced into this rivalry. I feel like that has to mean they are pulling Ole Miss from us, which seems crazy to me. I don't see them ending the Bama game or A&M game.

LSU is not likely to get Bama, they want Auburn/TENN as 2 of their permanent 3 and not LSU as the 3rd. Saban was very clear about that. Auburn is going to want Bama/UGA, etc. When you work it all out, LSU will likely get Ole Miss, Texas A&M and Arkansas as our 3.

The only other alternative is LSU gets Ole Miss, Arkansas and OU or LSU could get Ole Miss, Texas A&M and OU thus LSU and OU will play the last week.

Given the fixed games that I cited above, those are the options for LSU.

No other way to work it out.
