Slightly off topic because both are not P5, and in the 100 years between 1917 and 2016 they played 72 times. But the closest teams in different States must be Washington State and the University of Idaho. 9 1/2 miles according to Mapquest.

Topic?  Topic?  We don't need no stinkin' topic.

I had no clue they were that close.  9.4 miles.

Mike Price didn't do anything differently off the field at Washington State. It's just that he wouldn't have been recognized  less than 10 miles away in Moscow, Idaho. When he got to Alabama he would have been recognized in Moscow, Russia.

Not having played Virginia is unexpected, for me, for an SEC team.

Wazzou and Idaho were P5 Conference rivals in the predecessor to the Pac 8, which was the Pac 8 plus Idaho and Montana.

Auburn is the only SEC Western Division team that Virginia has ever played. Plus Missouri. Of course many of us are still attempting to understand why MO is in the East Division.

That is almost shocking.  UGA has played UVA 19 times.

Gainesville is closer to Tallahassee than Auburn is, but only by 40 miles.  And Florda-FSU became the de facto national championship game, it wasn't scheduled as one, to be technical. 
By the time it was played that game was effectively the NC because #4 Ohio State had already knocked off #2 ASU.  Thus the winner of #3 UF vs #1 FSU was pretty much guaranteed the NC.  

I know this well because I listed to that game on the radio in the van on the way home from Pasadena while rooting for a close and ugly UF win over FSU and all the while knowing that even that wouldn't realistically be enough for my Buckeyes.

Because it's more east than College Station?

Missouri has three East division teams in bordering states, and only one West division team.

Through that lense it would make more sense to swap the Razorbacks with the Gators. Go with a North-South alignment.

I can't imagine any SEC fandoms being happy being in the "North" division, to be honest.
