If we don’t get Oklahoma as permanent, who will we play at the end of the year every year?

Edit: Seems the idea is that we will have to get either Arkansas or Oklahoma. If we get Arkansas then that will answer the below and Mizz and OU will play at the end of the year.

UGA-GT
Bama- Auburn
Tenn-Vandy
Texas-The Gays
SC-Clemson
Ken-Louisville
Florida-FSU
Ole Miss-State
Mizz- Arkansas
Oklahoma?
LSU?

My guess is that SEC has 2 options:
1) OU isn’t a permanent and their game with OSU can be renewed. Thus we have to find a new game.

2) Match them with us as a permanent leaving the game in place.

I wouldn’t mind creating a new game at the end of the year.

Options could be Miami, Rice, Tulane, Southern Miss, ULL, La Tech.

All Big 12 schools don’t have end of year game. Houston, TCU, SMU, Tech and so on.

I would like to see Tulane. We would play in the Superdome for their home games.

rather play somebody other than arky, that's such a forced "rivalry" and usually we barely show up

The permanent rivals will be reviewed every four years

That last week schedule may be a main reason why we get OU or Arky.

If not, then I want to see us strike up some relationship with Miami.

But if Arky is a perm, then that would be it if Mizz gets OU.

LSU has nothing to gain by playing Tulane every year.

.

I didn’t think about this. What is the relationship and hate Mizz and Ark have?

I'd be ok with Tulane, but we don't really gain anything from playing them. Arky is fine also. Anyone but OU, there's absolutely no history there.

This is as forced as our game with OK.

Arky would rather have us and we would rather have them.

Let OK and Mizzou play each other like they did in the B12

I prefer option #1. Let's play Tulane. Play 1 game in the Superdome for every 2 games in Tiger Stadium. I don't want to force an annual game with a team we've played all of 4 times in over 100 years of football.

I mean that’s fine, but let’s not act like they’re ever getting rid of

Bama-Auburn
Texas-OU
Texas-A&M
Ole Miss-Miss State

UGA & Florida will still have their 3 “permanent” SEC opponents but they’ll still play GT & FSU the last weekend

An easy win. But what if that’s all what’s left?

Why are they forcing arky mizzou. 15 total games played. And ou lsu 5 times played. Vs arky and lsu and mizzou vs ou.

Mizzou and ou have played 97 times. Thats a rival. Sorry not sorry.

We should not be stuck with 2 big 12 teams as permanent when we are a founding member of the sec

It’s really no different than UGA-GT.

Agree 100%

For anyone under the age of 45 or so that game is not a "rivalry". It's an afterthought. And while Tulane has been a good G6 program for the last few years (maybe even a CFP team this year), that level of success is unlikely to remain as their coaches continue to be poached by bigger schools (Sumrall is likely gone after this season). It would also put LSU as the only SEC team playing a G6 opponent on the final weekend, which would make the game totally irrelevant.

LSU doesn't have a singular traditional rival. And that's ok. There's no reason to try to force one.

This is really easy.

I don’t know why people have problems with this.


Mizzou and Arkansas are not real rivals.


Mizzou and ou we both big 8 and then big 12 and have substantial history.



We play Arkansas rival weekend like we used to


Mizzou plays OU

At least we have a cool trophy with Arkansas. Nobody gives a shite about OU. At all.

Let OU play Mizzou.
