The 9 game schedule is fine, but we're going to be tied to 2 hillbilly schools that aren't rivals, but "rivals." Fuck Arky & triple fuck aggy! You can argue that Arkansas isn't a current rival. But they are a historical rival. That's not deniable. Claiming aggy isn't a rival is just dumb.
August 21Aug 21 Author Who else would we be tied to if not Arkansas and aggy, two historic rivals that we have a hell of a lot more history with than anyone else. LSU? Mizzou? Alabama? None of that was happening nor did it make sense for that to be the case.
August 21Aug 21 We've played Arky what, 7 times in the past 34 years? Historical sure, but they weren't exactly chomping at the bit to play us. Aggy left 13 years ago, and we didn't play. We weren't in the same conference with OU for 60+ years, and still played them. One is not like the other 2.

August 21Aug 21 I don't have anyone specific in mind, but shake it up! Maybe Tennessee? But they're tied up with UGa & Bammer. Fuck it, give us Kentucky and Vandy. Anyone but fucking insufferable aggy.

Sure half their board sounds like you but they have a reason because we beat their ass in pretty much everything at a very high percentage historically.

Going to 9 conference games is obviously good news. I like the idea of planting that Longhorn flag in North Carolina. You can rotate UNC and NCSU (mid), and Scar and Wake Forest (weak). Schedule the games at Bank of America Stadium. Conquer North Carolina and then pick a new state

August 21Aug 21 Popular Post Why is anyone bitching about this? We'll play ou, aggy, and Arky every year, plus 6 others in a rotation (home and home, I'm assuming?). And I like the insistence that one of the OOC games remains a P4 opponent. What exactly would have been better than this? Because this sounds fucking great.

Also, the P4 OOC requirement is a giant fuck you to the Big 10. Indiana, especially, can get fucked. OSU didn’t have one last year. I think multiple teams lack one this season year because the whole conference only has 12 scheduled. 1 minute ago, TexArcher said: Why is anyone bitching about this?

It’s been referenced in a lot of the tweets we’ve seen thus far. “Likely follow suit.”

August 21Aug 21 We’re easy to figure out. The rest of the conference I don’t know. Who is A&M going to get? Texas, LSU and Arkansas? OU? I’d imagine OU gets us, Mizzou and ? Auburn is gonna get screwed having to play Bama and Georgia every year plus someone like Florida or LSU.

When will you people ever learn that it doesn't matter? You could hand A&M success served on a silver platter, and they'd trip over their untied shoelaces and dump it all over the floor.
August 21Aug 21 Author aggy will get Texas, LSU, and Arkansas. Arkansas and aggy had the 10 game series at JerryWorld. It's not someone that should scare aggy since I can't recall Arkansas ever getting a win against them in this series. They have SWC history. It's also regional. OU will be the interesting one to watch. Texas and Mizzou is a given. The 3rd is harder to figure out. It will be another team that doesn't really have a firm 3rd traditional rival. I'm betting either South Carolina or Florida. LSU will get aggy, Ole Miss, and Mississippi State. I don't think the SEC is going to pair Bama and LSU. Bama won't want that since they already have Tennessee every year. Bama should get Miss State, Auburn, and Tennessee. I think this is a good gauge of what rivalries will stick around. https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/news/college-football/southeastern-conference-most-played-rivalries-all-time-entering-2019/ Edited August 21Aug 21 by mdmost

We both know if he’s saying that, he’s already been told. He said tv is playing a big role in helping with the matchups. It honestly sounded like a few teams, Mississippi State included, are going to get lucky because no one wants to see them on tv. He said he’d heard Vanderbilt, Kentucky and Ole Miss for MSU.

Taking that and canceling the FCS payday games of $1-$4M annually will make each program some pretty good money. Radio people are acting like they read that ESPN will be escalating once initial assumptions are validated.

August 22Aug 22 I bet they use Mississippi State, Kentucky and Vanderbilt to divide up for the schools with two difficult rivals like Auburn. It's kind of crazy how some of these schools have been in the conference for decades and still don't really have any rivals. Edited August 22Aug 22 by fellside

August 22Aug 22 Quote Each team will face every other SEC program at least once every two years and every opponent home and away over four years. For the non-rivals, I wish they had gone with the original Big 12 model where you played half the opposite division home and home in back to back years and then rotated. I liked the immediate rematches without a year in between. Just a minor quibble. It's still a huge improvement that if a guy actually stays at a school all 4 years without transferring, he would play every team home and away. It should go a long way to make it feel like you're actually in the same conference. As opposed to things like Georgia and aggy. Edited August 22Aug 22 by WBT
