Seriously though...what major conference team ia going to agree to play a top tier team on the road without a preexisting rivalry already locked in?

The only true road games nonconference I've seen between top teams in the last 4 years that meet this description:

Michigan State at Oregon 2014
Notre Dame at Florida State 2014
LSU at West Virginia 2011

You mean aside from the traditional rivalries I assume

Didn't UGA/Clemson just finish one too?
Nebraska/Miami maybe... (traditional powers at least and fringe top 25ers now)?
OSU is playing OU in 2016/2017 but who knows where OU will be even by then but should be good

Shame isn't it. These neutral site games just aren't the same. We have home and home with VT and Penn St coming up in 2018-2022 or something like that.
