Damn you AustinAggie, you make too much damn sense!

Chicken will you please ban this cow-tipping Aggie for the audacity of trying to bring common sense and logic to solve a problem.

Sorry Austin Aggie, your rivalry games that you listed make way too much sense and the least disruptive of anything put out there so far! You should be ashamed of yourself, for already solving a problem in 5 minutes with a little logic, when the morons in Birmingham are getting paid millions of dollars to create a mess that most schools will have an issue with you about what you have scheduled.

I tip my hat to you sir, don’t think it could be scheduled any better than that!

How about send that graph to the SEC, give them some hints before they screw it all up.

Ask Chicken to sticky this post, it really gives everyone what they want, how can that be bad if all the scheduling works.

I don’t think the SEC or ACC will have a problem with any game listed so they should all be on board, the only two teams you have to worry about are OSU & Kansas. Does the Big12 allow there members to play those rivalry game or are they going to continue to be bitches like Texas made them into.

Financially it is the smartest thing for them to do, we will see

I'll take Arkansas again. With the way things are lining up I see us playing them every year, division or pod wise.

Think of how great that thanksgiving weekend would be;

Thursday starts off with two SEC games;

OU vs OSU during the day
Texas vs A&M at night

Friday starts off with 3 SEC games;

Clemson vs SCAR first up

Florida vs FSU next on the schedule

LSU vs Arkansas at night

Saturday’s marquee matchups are;

Georgia vs Georgia Tech first game of the day

Ole Miss vs MSU in the day

Bama vs AU at night.

And then fill in the other games on Saturday.

Man oh man how many SEC rabid fans would be looking forward to that TV schedule that weekend?

Whatever big name on LSU's schedule is fine with me for Thanksgiving. I really don't care who it is. It doesn't have to be the same opponent every damn season.

If I was A&M I would fight to keep LSU as the end of season game. It has really heated up the last few years.

You are in danger of backsliding into your old little brother ways if you play Texas as the Thanksgiving game.

How many times over the years have I heard an Aggie say "As long as we beat Texas I am happy?" Too many to count.

That is failure talking. You should only be concerned with winning a national championship. You never will if you adopt that old mentality.

Play the Longhorns in October or start the year with them in September as a kickoff game. Dont give in and lose LSU as the rivalry game.

That game is far more important that what pod you are in if you want to maintain your newfound identity separate from Texas.

OOC:
Georgia vs GT
Florida vs FSU
Oklahoma vs OKST
Auburn vs UAB
Kentucky vs Louisville
Clemson vs South Carolina
Missouri vs who the frick cares
Baylor vs A&M

Or does the conference try and fill it vs. Oklahoma since the Arky/Mizzou matchup is a border rival?
Pretty obvious that would be a go for us.

Auburn is going the way of UTenn right now. Bama has two useless trad rivals. Unless LSU is going to somehow get a permanent game with them then I think the most logical choice is UT. And we have no desire to play A&M every year. They ran from us.

I would like to keep LSU for rivalry thanksgiving weekend. Not sure how tiger fans feel about it. I think aggies would think it’s a damn shame to drop the game just because the sippies joined the conference.

1. No one gives a frick what you think
2. You think they’re going to replace the iron bowl with a UT-Austin/Bama game? Are you fricking stupid?
