As has been mentioned, both conferences are talking about each team scheduling one team from the other conference each year. Would you prefer a permanent partner or have the teams rotate? The Ky, SC, Ga and Fla teams would likely prefer the permanent partner structure with the rest preferring a rotating schedule.
My hunch is that no SEC team would want to be permanently paired with Pitt, Syracuse or BC unless there was some recruiting advantage (unlikely) for the school. Otherwise, all the remaining schools in both conferences are in the greater southeast.

I tend to agree, especially if their is no other marketing angle like UK and SU playing each other with a basketball game added.
UK home football, Carrier Dome basketball in even year
UK in Carrier Dome football, Rupp basketball in odd year
Boston College could be some hockey + football type deal
Pitt, I got nothing.
Also, with ND playing 5 ACC games under contract, they should be in the mix for some kind of SEC rotation game.
