Georgia - Florida, Auburn, South Carolina
Kentucky - Florida, South Carolina, Vanderbilt
Vanderbilt - Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri
Missouri - Mississippi State, Vanderbilt, Oklahoma

They were a season opener for several years back in the day.
I don't like big games for season openers. I prefer a warmup game at least to get the rust off and kinks out.

Should have happened when A&M joined the conference. There would have been no need for off campus openers and would be one of the big season opening games nationally each year.
Our idiot admins back then bought into the Thanksgiving game poison.

Arkansas or Missouri would be a better Labor Day trip.

I’ve always preferred them in the last game of the year over Arky

I've always felt it's great for team morale and energy to have a big game at the beginning of the season.
The grind of summer workouts seem to go by faster.

Absolutely NOT. It is hot as hell in CS and we have been down that path for 8 years as I recall losing the last 5

A&M should be the first SEC game every year, maybe even as a thursday night primetime kickoff for the whole CFB FBS season
Auburn, Miss St, and Florida should be the next conference teams on the schedule
Ole Miss should be Halloween
Alabama the first weekend of November
Tulane the final game of the year on the Saturday after thanksgiving
A&M and Texas should play on Thanksgiving day

You ever been to college station in August young man?

No thank you, it's hot as shite in College Station in September

Ladies, A&M has lights now. Someone is going to open the college football season, why not us.
By the way, I posted this on the SEC Rant. It’s an idea that needs to be explored.
I like the permanent opponents idea, but nobody but this board is even discussing that idea.
My take:
LSU - Alabama, A&M, and Ole Miss
Alabama - Auburn, LSU, Tennessee
Florida - Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky
Auburn - Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi State
A&M - LSU, Texas, South Carolina
Texas - Oklahoma, A&M, Arkansas

One of Bama’s permanent opponents will be Vandy. That’s a fact.
And when the conference shuffles scheduling to incorporate the 2 new members, watch for an 8 year gap before Bama faces any team that’s been performing well.

I don't want to lose the Florida game. It's been too much fun over the past ~25 years.
Posted on 7/27/21 at 1:15 pm to G&P
I’d much rather play our schedule like this:
A&M and Auburn in September.
Ole Miss and Florida in October
Bama in November.
All the rest sprinkled in there.
