re: Which conference football opponent will you miss playing next season?

Statically, the SC-UTK game was the closest game in the conference for a stretch of 20 years. Other than the 21 and 22 respective beatdowns, it was the tightest margin of victory of any annual contest, and produced some fantastic games. It also developed into a pretty intense rivalry, despite the relative lack of history between the schools. I'll miss it.

Realignment put SC on an island. We don't play the three schools we're closest to in UGA, UTK, and UF, but instead we're relegated to the B12 East with Oklahoma, aTm, and Mizzou. Next season will be boring AF.
