Damn do we miss Bama then?

We are not getting Fla - it makes no geographical sense. It’s Ole Miss and A&M with the third being Bama or Ark.

What does geography have to do with anything? We fly to most games anyhow.

For the millionth time:
Bama gets Tenner and AU for sure. It's terribly unlikely that they would agree for another big 6 program as the third annual rival. It's doesn't make sense for them and it makes it more difficult for the SEC to create balanced schedules throughout.

Everyone just needs to brace themselves to lose the Bama game.

Probably so along with Ole Miss and Texas A&M. Arkansas will likely have Texas, Missouri, Miss State.

I agree with you 200%. aTm is just weird. I hate Florida, but that may be our best rival over the last 20-30 years. So I want to play them.

UF
Ole Piss
Bama

I want good teams, with FIRE! Not easy “ who gives a shite wins”.

Unless they change the originally leaked structure, Arkansas is getting only one top tier annual opponent and that’s Texas.

First, no one has veto power in this scheduling and it’s impossible for every school to get exactly what they want. Why should the other Top 6 programs have to play each other but Bama gets a pass? They are the ones that want to hold onto Auburn and Tennessee. That shouldn’t be a get out of jail free card for playing the other top programs. If it’s too hard, then they can give up Tennessee. Texas and Oklahoma are paired. Georgia and Florida are paired. It makes the most sense for LSU and Alabama to be paired to close the loop.

Somebody is going to have to be paired with Florida that doesn’t make geographic sense. I don’t think it will be LSU, but it could actually be Oklahoma, which makes even less sense geographically. The teams on the geographic edges are going to have to have some less than ideal geographical pairings by the nature of the design. Throw in the lack of long term rivals for Oklahoma, Missouri, and SC and that only further complicates matters.
