What programs would you want your school more to play against more in the conference? Me personally South Carolina because I live in Columbia and I love their atmosphere.

Auburn or Ole Miss. They were our rivals way before UGA and Florida. 1992 changed our games around a lot because we really only kept Bama in terms of rivalry games

Glad we get UF back on the schedule this year. Would love to see them more often.

I don't know about more, but the ones I want to play the most often are Tennessee, Florida, South Carolina, Vanderbilt, and Georgia. I guess I really just enjoyed the East West split.

As for those whom we don't or haven't played all the time, I'd say Arkansas and LSU are who Id like to see more often.

I liked our annual game with Mississippi State. I'd be happy playing them every year still. But I just don't hate State. I always liked them because I viewed them as the West version of us football wise as far as success goes.

I’d love to play SCAR more often. Tennessee and Kentucky too.

Auburn is the closest SEC school to UF and it was the 2nd most played SEC game through 2002. The SEC dropped having 2 annual cross divisional rivals the next year and we've only played 4 times since then.

Arkansas not being on the OU docket until year 4 in the league football wise has surprised me

Well the way they made everyone in the conference play either y'all or us the first two years made sense they would renew the old SWC blood feud but the SEC giving y'all Ole Miss instead of Arkansas as an annual matchup was a major frickup.

Can some of you LSU fans be dumber? We already play once per year.

Tennessee and Kentucky for Ole Miss. we have played so rarely over the last 3 decades. Before the conference expanded in the early 90s we used to play Tennessee every year right before the eggbowl.

I think AU and UF can both agree we are glad to see this matchup more often.

AU is also glad to play Tennessee more often. Pre-1992, AU played Bama, UGA, UF, UT, and State every year and rotated the other 5 schools.

AU/UT stopped being annual in 1992.

Our perms should be Arky, LSU and tu.

Wish we played State/OM, Bama/Auburn, and Vandy/Tenn on opposite years of each other.

I still wish we’d have gone to 4 team pods, but with the conference championships eventually going away it probably doesn’t matter.

I guess he wants to play twice a year. Just one game this year is not gonna be enough.

I miss that old rotation. Then again, I miss divisions.
