re: How about 9 SEC games & no cross-division permanents?

LSU and Alabama played a game as out of conference. Why can't TSIO and DSOR be out of confernce

Alabama and LSU have never played an OOC game. Only two such games have ever been played in the SEC. Ole Mi$$-Bama in 1980-81. When the six conference game minimum rule was changed in 1980 to read six conference games minimum and maximum.

Ole Mi$$ and Bama already had a seventh game with each other scheduled for '80-'81. They played them as OOC games.
