Auburn will want to play UGA every year in order to keep the streak alive.

If the programs were to effort an SEC debut in 2022, each could owe up to $80 million to the Big 12 as a penalty for leaving before the current TV rights contract expires in 2025.
Lol. Texas and Oklahoma both will laugh, shite that 80M out their asses, and pay it and not think twice to begin SEC play in all sports in 2022.

Tennessee I think is on the way back at least. Vandy is lame

Can't wait for that first LSU vs OU game in Norman.

Still hoping this is all some sort of joke. 16 teams is absurd. That's not a conference, that's a league.

NCAA is done with NIL this is the sec getting ahead of the game

I have a sneaking suspicion there will end up being one permanent opponent from each pod (keeps Auburn-Georgia alive, for example) while guaranteeing a few other tasty TV games every year (like maybe LSU-Oklahoma or Alabama-Texas as a couple of ESPN/ABC delights).
LSU's permanent opponents would probably be Alabama, Florida, and Arkansas.
Texas A&M gets Texas and Bama gets Oklahoma, meaning we would get Arkansas.
The only annual opponent LSU would lose is Auburn.

This is the one. No other pod argument can be made

This is the only chance that LSU OU home and home ever happens.

You know, you might have a point there about UGA/Auburn being lost with the 4 PODS that the SEC Network proposed.
So you play your POD, for LSU that is Texas A&M, Ole Miss and State.
LSU plays 1 permanent from the other PODS, that would mean Florida, Bama and Arkansas to 6 games and then the other 6 teams, you play 3 in year 1 and 2 and 3 in year 3 and 4 for 9 games and then 3 in year 5 and 6.
That could work. Uses the POD system and gets all the traditional games in tact.

So what would happen to the Longhorn Network?

The only traditional rivalry games that would be lost are LSU/Auburn and Georgia/Tennessee.

I'm kind of disappointed to lose our annual games against Florida, Alabama, and Auburn. Sure our schedule should get easier, but the anticipation for those games every year makes lsu football what it is.
Same here. Makes me kinda sad to think about it honestly. fricking Texas has to frick everything up.

As much as our fanbase complains about permanent florida, I love that game in Tiger Stadium
Will miss Bama too but I could see LSU still playing them every year but no way LSU can be stuck with both Fla and Bama every season and I think Woodward would fight to avoid it
I'm lukewarm on Auburn even with all the drama packed games, they prefer their eastern opponents anyway like Fla and UGA

The Big Ten and the Pac 12 both have special caveats for certain schools schedules that don't hold the other schools down.
Indiana and Purdue have a permanent cross rivalry that no one else in the BIG has and all the California schools in the PAC play every year even though they're split amongst divisions. There are no other permanent cross division rivalries in that conference I believe.
