Arkansas is one team that will prevent it.
Last season- 3rd best team in the SEC West... and arguably the country. Make no mistake, crushing the Hogs last year was key in both Bama's and LSU's resume. You could make the case that Arky was every bit as good as Oklahoma St or Oregon.
This season- ULM wins in Little Rock. There goes a big chunk of strength of schedule.
SEC will still get 1 in, but that loss pretty much guarantees that #2 goes to the Sugar, not get a rematch.

WVU gets chokeklahoma and OkSt at home. They do have a big home game environment.

Scoob that is a good point, Arkansas definitely helped last year. I also think it will depend on how close the LSU - Bama game in Baton Rouge is. If it's a blowout either way then no rematch, but if it's close like last year I could still see it. I think it also depends on what happens in the USC/Oregon game. If one team in that game blows out the other (say Oregon beats USC 52 - 21) then that eliminates that team even if the other team loses another game in my opinion. Like always it'll be about style points.
