Don't know why folks want to place Oklahoma with LSU as the post mentioned they are not traditional rivals. That part is true. However, Arkansas is a traditional rival of LSU and we've had some great games during the Thanksgiving weekend. Mizzou and Arkansas are the ones that are not traditional rivals but Missouri and Oklahoma are!

Why force the AR/MO issue at all?

It should be the two rivals and southern state schools Arkansas vs LSU and the two midwestern state and former Big12 rivals Missouri and Oklahoma.

What is so dang hard about this??

If you try to create the 3 team grid for everyone, you will see it gets complicated quick.

I'll try to show you using Arkansas as an example.
Who would you choose to be your 3 perm's?

Using this answer, I'll attempt to show you how the rest of the puzzle is effected.

Games listed are the games that everyone seems to agree on. So what are your picks for Arkansas?

Obviously there are many ways to do this. I believe Arkansas should be in the grouping with Ole Miss, LSU and Miss State. Texas A&M should be with their old BIG12 buddies Missouri, Oklahoma and Texas.

Either way, just for the sake of tradition or lack thereof, when talking Thanksgiving/Rivalry weekend, OU and MO go together while AR and LSU go together.
