I rather have UGA, UF, and ARK.

But I’d be happy with this version too.

I would rather have Ole Miss than Oklahoma as LSU's 3rd team.

I agree, and Oklahoma should have A&M, which would rectify that.


I think what they are doing is trying not to give the new teams all former Big 12 permanents. Not sure it is avoidable.

LSU and Ole Miss will always be preserved, no matter what.

Not pissed at anything SDS posts, but having OU with LSU and not Ole Miss is just brainless.

A few things stand out. Alabama will never sign off on that. And Ole Miss has no natural rivals so give them Texas A&M and Auburn? WTF? And Texas continues to have the easiest SEC schedule of all the teams.

Sounds about right to me with that PoS Sankey in charge.

Florida would be getting an even bigger shaft than Alabama.

I'm okay with a tough set of rivalry games, but there should be at least a token attempt at balancing them.

Auburn and Ole Miss don’t even have much of a history series-wise. MSU would make more sense for both Auburn and Bama. This list is stupid.

SC has Kentucky, Mizzou and UGA. OK, I think most Gamecocks are cool with that.

But Vandy has SC listed as one of their 3, as well. Sooo... howzat work?

Ole Miss has played Auburn only 47 times in the entire existence of the SEC. A&M and Ole Miss have only played 13 times.

Wev'e played

MSU 119 times.
LSU 112 times.
Vanderbilt 96 times.
Arkansas will move into a tie for 4th most played opponent in the SEC this season at 70 (69 now). The other is Alabama at 70.

Give me MSU, LSU, and Arkansas.

Ole Miss is the most likely permanent for us and they aren't even one of the 3?

A LOT of this list makes no sense. LSU/OK, A&M/OM. What a truly terrible take.
