How often has it ever happened where 2 major NON CONFERENCE teams play twice in same season, never

SpartyGator•80 months

Old system but FSU/UF did in 96.

Datbayoubengal•80 months

Lol, they always do this. Really big game vs too teams early, they expect them to have a rematch at the end of the season. It almost never, if ever, happens.

No.

I guess these assclowns have to write about something.

Brendoni•80 months

Laughable......won’t happen unless they both end up in the playoffs.

CrystalPreserves•80 months

That’s insulting. While everyone else is talking about LSU may be the best team in the country, these knuckleheads have us rematching Texas? Gtfo

ninthward•80 months

frick THAT, Scott needs to put and end to that talk NOW@!!

Will not let ESPN dictate where we feel we should play.

bagboy333•80 months

No one wants this

dustytiger123•80 months

Dan Mullen is gonna put the screws to Georgia....wait for it

dustytiger123•80 months

When has the top 4 at this point in the season ever been the top 4 at the end of the season? has that ever happened?

KCT•80 months

This would be 3 games in 12 months. Nope. If LSU doesn't make the national playoff, then match us up against Joe B's old team Ohio State.

Deke•80 months

Would rather play someone for the National Championship. Texas ain't gonna be in that conversation.

GentleJackJones•80 months

I would love it, but for the fact that we are playing them in September 2020.

LouisianaLonghorn•80 months

Exactly. I don't see the interest from LSU fans for a rematch when we play them again next September. The Dome would be at least 75% burnt orange. I don't think we would travel well, even though it's right down the road.

bluestem75•80 months

Neither school nor conference will go for a Texas/LSU matchup outside of the Playoff. Won’t happen.

TigerintheNO•80 months

It's no longer their choice.

Both conferences have already agreed to send their highest ranked team (not in the Playoffs) to the Sugar Bowl.

VesperiaLSU•80 months

Don't understand the hype on UGA every year. They were dnominated last year by us and Texas, and they haven't played nobody this year, and yet these analyst are projecting them into the playoff and beat Bama in SECC? LoL

RazzleDazzle•80 months

This is a joke.

TheFlyingTiger•80 months

tigerfoot•80 months

Nope nope nope

3 times in 2 years. That would suck
