Am I the only one that hates calling it "a single divison"? There are no divisions. It seems stupid to say there's one division with 16 teams in it. In reality there are none.

Football Rivalries and Baseball Rivalries can be very different. Who do you want your two to be?

For A&M its tu and... I guess Lsu. I am sure several would consider Lsu as their baseball rival due to their success.

ETA: I misread and thought it was football. Sounds good to me.

I don't let it bother me, but this is accurate.

You are 100% getting stuck with Missouri. Which in baseball, you Piggies do deserve better. Unlike in football, we're a great match and I am exhausted from some of y'alls' incessant whining.

This surprises me.

It doesn't work mathematically. If you've got 2 permanent opponents, that leaves you 13 to rotate, so we are left with the unbalanced rotation. If you have five permanent opponents, that would leave ten to rotate, so you'd play 5 and 5.

Mathematically it does seem odd. But I suppose they didn’t want to go to as many as five permanents.

As an LSU fan I hate the idea of giving up annual series with MSU, Arky and Ole Miss. Those are great road trips. Hopefully our permanents will be two of those.

No divisions would be the correct terminology.

Mississippi State and Ole Miss should be LSU's permanent rivals.

Auburn will take bama and uga and pencil in a 4-2 or 5-1 record to start the year.

well since Rayberry Tanner has been on record very recently with remarks of "we'll (Carolina) do what's best for the SEC overall" in regards to football schedules - I suspect USC will be traveling to middle-America every season to play at Arkansas or Missouri on the diamond.

these 4 will mix it up every year

ALA - AUB FLA
AUB - ALA UGA
FLA - UGA ALA
UGA - FLA AUB

this will be the Holy Trinity of SEC baseball

LSU - OLE MSU
OLE - LSU MSU
MSU - LSU OLE

Ozarks + Carolina

ARK - MIZ USC
MIZ - ARK USC
USC - ARK MIZ

bourbon/whiskey trio

KEN - TEN VAN
TEN - KEN VAN
VAN - KEN TEN

sorry Aggies someone has to play them

OKL - TEX A&M
TEX - A&M OKL
A&M - OKL TEX

I would be willing to bet ours will be Mississippi State and LSU.

Ole Miss, State and LSU will probably be each other’s permanent opponents. It makes too much sense.

Arky will probably get the Texas schools or Okie/Mizzou

SEC would be stupid not to have Texas and LSU play every year.

Would be like North Carolina joining the SEC and not playing Kentucky every year in basketball.

Looks about right

I would prefer hogs and Texas but this makes sense.
