I may be the only one but I hate having to play the same Oklahoma, Arkansas, and A& M after moving to the SEC . Why can't we play the other schools sometimes instead of this same tired old three every year ?

Because permanent rivalries will always be a thing in the SEC. That's just the way it is whether you like it or not.

You have already done this a couple of times this season. Both times UTrans actually fell in the rankings.

Not entirely accurate. This schedule was put in place as a temporary stop gap while they figure out the long-term format moving forward.

You are the only one. It is a Longhorn wet dream to play those three annually.

You want to play Arkansas as often as you play South Carolina? That’s retarded.

If the SEC has an 8 game schedule and 4 permanent opponents, you can play every SEC team in a three year cycle.

If we stick with an 8 game schedule in 2026, you may get your wish (or 2/3 of it).

Most of the old guard have a couple of rivals that they want to play every year.

A&M hasn't played the school in Austin in 13 years and won't necessarily continue to annually after this season.

I wasn't referencing the current format in particular. The SEC will always find a way to have Bama vs Tenn or Georgia vs Auburn and other obvious annual rivalries.

A&M experienced this by having to play South Carolina every year in the division format. And now we have Mississippi state as an annual game (I guess because of the Jackie connection?).

Anyways, you can go the path of LSU and whine about having to play the Gators or now Bama every year. But that doesn't really get you too much here other than some LSU sympathy.

You’d prefer annual throwdowns against Kansas, Baylor, or Iowa State (present year excluded)?

lol you are 88 years old and don't want to play the 3 rivals you have played the most in your lifetime, and mostly haven't played in the last 10-20 years?

It's not the same without UGA, Florida, or Tennessee on the schedule this year.
