SEC football schedules by divisions will be eliminated when Texas, Oklahoma join

I welcome any new format as long as we don't play bama for another 117 years in a row!

I'm open anything that keeps us from having to endure the "November Nightmare" (Bama, Aubrin, LSU and Old Mess); wonder how many current posters are old enough to remember this?

I remember and having to go to Jackson for many of these game made it worse. Remember when State and OM had Jackson games the same day, "double headers"?

As long as they do away with the mandatory P5 game. I don't like the SEC telling us how to schedule OOC because Florida has a rivalry with Florida State and Saban wants to play some blueblood in a Kickoff Classic


Pretty sure those are going to be our three permanant.



Because then you don't get 7-5 Mizzou playing 12-0 Alabama in the SEC Championship Game. Basically assures the best two teams make it every year.



The truth is we're the same as South Carolina, Kentucky or Ole Miss to Alabama. I don't think they really care if we're on the schedule or not.



I'm sure we will get some easier schedules some- like we did in 1998 and 1999. I'm sure we'll have a gauntlet some and most of the time will be somewhere in the middle.

I do think getting Alabama off of our schedule every year would help us out. It gives us a better chance at a special season. Also, I want to play teams like Georgia and Vanderbilt more. Gives us a chance to play the rest of the league more than ever.

Of course they'll get off our schedule now that the end of the dynasty is near. Not complaining but pure Mississippi state fashion

Georgia is a lock to have Auburn and Florida as 2 of their permanent 3. I project their 3rd to be South Carolina, but Vanderbilt and Kentucky are also possible.

I do. Seems in late 80s they threw Tulane in there somewhere and we got a brief respite, except the sewer pond squad had a couple of good seasons in that time frame.

I do remember going to a game in the 80s with my Dad and us having to clear out so they could clean the stadium.

[starkvegasdawg]

We won't. Neither Alabama nor LSU want us, and the SEC is going to want big marquee games to be annual contests.

Can we lobby for ole miss, Vandy, and mizzou?
