SEC got it right for Texas.  I know some would prefer LSU or Georgia over Arkansas, but Arkansas just made too much sense to be that tertiary permanent rival.  Some of the other teams permanent opponents are a little shocking though.

They did a great job with the matchups. I was expecting to see one team get a cakewalk or another getting hosed but they kept this to a minimum considering the moving parts.

Interesting that Bama wiggled out of LSU (or however that pairing ended up not occurring) and received Miss St. The Athletic and Sports Illustrated both predicted Bama / LSU were due to be paired.

It was a foregone conclusion for us.  Arkansas is meh for me other than what should be a fairly easy win most years.  I’d rather have LSU or Georgia but I knew what it would be.

Kinda jelly OU got Ole Miss.  I’d love to go to Oxford every other year

It's fairly balanced considering "usual" annual performance expectations of powerhouses vs cakewalks.
