The only standard is that the Cotton usually goes West and the Outback goes East but even that is not set in stone.

Tennessee is the only East team that has played in the Cotton Bowl since the current SEC/Big 12 matchup was struck in '98 and even then it's only been twice.

Since '98 season:

Arkansas - 4
Ole Miss - 3
LSU - 2
Tennessee - 2
Alabama - 1
Auburn - 1
Mississippi St - 1
Texas A&M - 1
