Maybe retarded, but absolutely happened. Ole Miss was assigned Arkansas as a conference game a number of years. Didn't mean Arkansas was in the SEC at the time, just that they counted as a conference game for Ole Miss.
All of this nonsense, instead of just playing a school ACTUALLY IN the conference?
I don't even...

It happened mainly because Georgia Tech refused to play Ole Miss when Vaught was here, as did many others in the conference. The league didn't schedule games, the schools did. And if you couldn't get 6 other teams to schedule conference games, the conference assigned a non c to count. Usually they picked your toughest ooc. If history is being questioned, it should be studied first IMHO.
