Pretty sure OSU had one on the docket vs Tennessee, but it never materialized for whatever reason. Or maybe it was Georgia.
I'm pretty sure it was actually both. I was planning to go to the game in Knoxville but it fell through. I was considering UGA as well. 

Both are not too far:
  • Sanford Stadium is about a 12 hour drive from where I live
  • Neyland Stadium is about 7-1/2 hours from where I live. 
  • Both are around two hours closer to Columbus.

Which is a shame.  What a stupid direction college football has taken.

well, as show up thread

there's not a strong history of scheduling between conferences in the past

with TV rivalries and such, probably less chance going forward

but, as always, we have BOWL season!

Horns were actually moving the other direction though.  Home-and-home against Ohio State back in 2005/6, the more recent series against Maryland (ugh), and then 2024--2027 against Michigan and Ohio State.  But I'm afraid that after those series are done, the new conference stand-off btw B1G and SEC, will prohibit or limit further engagements.

Wait, is that really a thing?  Conference stand-off between SEC and B1G?  

What did I miss here.  Besides, from a general glance, I don't think the B1G ever really played in the Southeast before either.

It's not good, because the PAC and what's left of the Big 12 don't lend to great recruiting

Well there's certainly a growing level of animosity between the two conferences, currently.  And speaking specifically about Texas, which has made obvious recent moves to schedule the B1G more often, I'm expressing concern that this animosity will affect our potential for scheduling B1G teams in the future.

I honestly didn't realize that.  I really felt like it was animosity between the B1G/SEC vs the ACC/PAC/Big 12.  Because we're going to the Power 2...and the rest.  So if anything, the SEC and B1G is set, what do they have against each other?  You can't possibly get any bigger or richer....there's nothing left on the table to take.  And I seriously doubt any schools will be switching from either conference.

This is my take too.

It's the Power Two sooner than later. I don't think schools which switch between the two, but I could see the Power Two kicking schools out.

Why would the B1G or SEC feel any animosity toward the PAC, B12, ACC?  There's no rivalry there.  There's no competition.

As a fan of a B12 school watching all of this unfold over the past decade+, I never felt like the SEC or B1G felt animosity toward the B12.  My perception is, they don't feel ANYTHING at all.  It's all just business, exclusive of emotion.  Those other 3 conferences are viewed by the B1G and SEC as being solely for consumption.

But I most definitely perceive a rivalry between the SEC and B1G.  Perhaps that will stabilize and go away, once the TX/OU and UCLA/USC moves are complete and the dust settles a little bit.

You're right.  There is no animosity between the B1G/SEC to the power 3 (uncapitalized !).  There animosity is from the power 3 towards the Power 2. I should have clarified my statement.  

My take is that the power 3 server as buffer between the SEC and B1G.  Fodder for the CFP.  So far the only exception is Clemson, who will soon be part of the SEC.  I forget, how many teams in the new B1G?  I guess the SEC is up to 16 with OU/Tex, how many is in the B1G after expansion?

Well sure.  How could there not be?
