Each team need to play at least one P5 opponent stating in 2016. At least it's not all P5 opponents I guess......

Also keeping an 8-game conference schedule, so four total OOC games per SEC team each year.

Personally I think we should try and get home and homes with schools like Mizzou, Ole Miss, Vandy, and Miss. State

Ole Miss would be interesting...they would feel familiar in the boulevard 8)

It would be fun to play some Pac 12 teams though...maybe home and home with Cal or Arizona? I would love it if we could do a combo home and home for Basketball and Football against those two teams.

Sounds good to me ECM. Wouldn't those teams want to come here for recruiting purposes?

The game against Ole Miss during the Cavan era was well attended both in Oxford and at the Cotton Bowl.
