UCLA is fun because we don’t play them ever but they’re going to suck this year. OU is at the end of the year so you’re taking a risk of going to a game that may not even matter if LSU has lost 3 games and is out the playoff

Ole Miss is your answer. They’re preseason top 5 and are the first sec home game at night, plus the revenge factor from last year. It’s probably going to be the biggest game of the year

Ole Miss for sure.
October night games are always perfect weather and very loud! Possible gameday?

Nuss vs Dart, Kiffin vs Kelly. Cmon!

OU is 2nd for me because it’s Saturday after Thanksgiving and that date just isn’t as electric as when the entire student body is on campus.

Although UCLA would be a great revenge game to put a boot on their arse.

You really can’t go wrong.

Not even close as if Bama, UCLA and OU games are way below the Ole Miss game all of a sudden because Ole Miss is hyper hyped as usual.

Bama wasn’t even one of your options.

Ole Miss is a “bigger” game. But OU coming to Tiger Stadium for the 1st time is pretty intriguing to me. But I’ve seen lsu play OM in TS a dozen times or so

Ole Miss for sure. The other two are good but that OM one should be guaranteed top 10-15 matchup with potentially college gameday.

I would probably say the following if I just take the game itself as criteria

1. UCLA - due to the uniqueness and the fact it is unlikely to happen again for a while, if ever.

2. OU because this will be the first time they meet in Tiger stadium (or either team's home field)

3. Ole Miss because it looks to be a really good game.

Now if you want to consider the weather, it will still be freaking hot for the UCLA game and may still be freaking hot for Ole Miss. The timing of OU makes it unpredictable, so it may be cold and/or rainy but it may also be magnificent. It is unlikely to be hot.

Yep. That’s right. I forgot ole Miss is a powerhouse. That’s the marquee game on the slate. They’re a national title contender. Who’s Georgia

Ole Miss will be TS at its best, IMO. It will be at night and weather in mid-October SHOULD be better than September or November.

Oklahoma is the game after Thanksgiving. The atmosphere will NOT be as great as the Ole Miss game.

Ole Miss or Oklahoma because it's probably going to be hot as balls on 9/21 and still hurricane season

OU. I've been to plenty of Ole Miss games. UCLA is likely to be a blowout unless we really suck.

I'd pick OM or OU - pretty much a toss up to me. Both will rock.

It will if a CFP spot is on the line. Which there’s a decent chance of that happening
