I think either Oklahoma or Arkansas have to be one of our permanents.

Every other team in the SEC has a set opponent for rivalry week:

Bama v Auburn
UGA v GA Tech
Tennessee v Vandy
UK v Lousville
Florida v FSU
A&M v Texas
USCe v Clemson
Ole Miss v Miss State,

That leaves Mizzou, OU, Arkansas, and the Tigers.

I expect Arkansas v Missouri and OU v LSU to continue.

You think A&M vs Texas is bigger than OU-Texas?

I agree. It was because of this that I predicted that LSU v OU was going to be the last game of the season before the SEC even announced our opponents for 2024.

Anther option is for LSU to play a non-conference game on rivalry weekend. Like how UGA plays GT and Florida plays Florida State. Eventually, Oklahoma and Okie State are going to start playing each other again. And with that, once again LSU will not have a primary conference rival. Blowout wins vs Tulane may be LSU's only option.

There’s no reason it can’t alternate to LSU-Arkansas and Oklahoma-Missouri every other year.
