Just what we need... playing bama, the other UT and UGA each year.
Bama and its SEC office minions will make sure Texas and a&m play each year, which they should. It's hard to imagine bammers in charge will allow bama to play Texas and a&m in the same year... maybe in 30 years when they can no longer pull of the Weekend at Bernie Nick's sideline trick. My guess they are really scared of big money and will try to make it very tough on Texas and a&m. That way Texas will play a&m and OU each year & a&m will play Texas and LSU every year. They won't worry about OU, Texas money will take care of that. They won't worry about LSU, except occasionally, and they will probably go to conference small group breakdowns that hurt LSU's presence in Texas recruiting.
The losers will be Ole Miss and Auburn in small divisions and scheduling. Lane won't care, he's knows his target job.
How bammers leverage out UGA will be interesting. They don't care what happens to Tenn, other than playing/beating us each year
