gotta be the first SEC team to play @Michiga & @Ohio State

Nope, LSU has done a home and home with Ohio State.  Never played Michigan though, even in a bowl.

I get the feeling Michigan rarely plays an OOC game against a helmet team
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

Their last few years of OOC have been a little cringey, but they don't shy away from helmets every year.  They play ND fairly regularly.

They played Notre Dame in 2018/2019, 2013/2014/2012/2011/2010.

Florida's not quite a helmet but they played the Gators in a one-off in 2017.

They played a one-off against Alabama in 2012 (and ND that same year).

I only went back to 2010, I got bored.

As a rule, the B10 rarely plays a SEC team in the preseason.

I'm delighted for Texas to NOT be a typical SEC team. :)

That cuts both ways. Until recently, most of the SEC teams avoided playing OOC games against P5 teams. Or, if they did, they'd play a one-off game at a "neutral" site in SEC territory.

As well it should!

Well, I'm talking about games and conferences going back decades, all the way back to the 70's and maybe before.  Even in the SWC, hardly anybody from the South played anybody from the B10.  Very rare.

That's true.  In SWC days, Texas definitely tended to play more southern teams or western teams, rather than northern teams in our OOC.

We did play Penn State a few times in late 80s/early 90s, before they joined the B1G.
