Why not? Tennessee / Auburn are locks, and LSU vs Bama is one of the most viewed TV games every year.

Zero chance. It’ll be Ole Miss, A&M, and OU

I need to review this some more but I remember quite a few people saying Florida would need to play Oklahoma to be able to get most of the priority rivalry games the SEC wanted.

No one should get both Vandy and UK...historically the bottom 2 conference programs. That'd be ridiculous.

Alabama should clearly be Auburn, Tennessee and Miss St. It's not like the LSU series has ever been actually competitive.

Bama wouldn’t agree. They’ll get Mississippi State

Because you aren’t going to make a school play 3 of the top 5 historical powerhouses yearly. I would guess Miss St takes LSU spot

Depends on how much TV dictates.

Also remember there are 6 other games. Those with easy annual will have brutal rotating

Totally disagree. Historical rivalries should be prioritized over all. Those with an easier permanent setup will naturally have a tougher rotation.

Kentucky and Tennessee have been playing since 1893.

Kentucky and Vanderbilt since 1894.

Tennessee and Vanderbilt since 1892.

Get the frick over it.

Oh but Mississippi St has right? Y'all sure do make a lot of threads about LSU considering we're not rivals.

There is no way the SEC office will let the schedules be this lopsided… especially at the expense of Alabama.

That’s why LSU-Bama will get the axe, and Alabama-MSU is likely to be resurrected.

For TV networks the more games involving

Oklahoma
Texas
LSU
Alabama
Auburn
Tennessee
Georgia
Florida

Playing each other, the better. Doesn't even matter if they are having good season. Those 9 will drive the money the conference can make. All schools who have won and competed for national titles in the modern era.

LSU will get Ole Miss and A&M no doubt in my mind.

It’s the 3rd team that’s the unknown.

My bet is on one of these 3:
Florida, Alabama, or Arkansas.
