Really not that complicated if Mizzou and KU want to renew the "Border War"
LSU goes back to playing Arky in the season finale
Those teams dont need to buy out a game just rearrange the schedule
Ags play tu
Mizzou plays KU
All four teams would have to buy out a game to create room, the schedule for A&M would probably be

New KU AD on resuming series (from July)

"I'll be candid," Long began. "That's not high on our priority list. As I walk in the door, there's so much more to do. And I have to learn, from the Kansas perspective, the view of that rivalry. I would never make a decision about something as important and critical, in my mind, before I got to know the University of Kansas Jayhawk athletics type of perspective."
Quote:
KU basketball coach Bill Self has been a strong supporter of keeping the Tigers off of KU's schedule and only agreed to the exhibition game because he believed it was a key factor in raising as much money as possible for the hurricane victims.
And former KU athletic director Sheahon Zenger was equally committed to the stance that the Jayhawks should not schedule the Tigers any time soon, a feeling that was universally supported throughout the KU athletic department.
It's hard to imagine Long making any drastic moves to change that, at least initially. And it seems like a safe bet that the new KU AD will honor whatever the coaches in his department feel is best, regardless of what it might mean for the Long family rivalry.
Of course, sips would assume that Kansas would do as they are told, and be loyal little lap dogs. Are you unaware of KU's position, or do you just think the sips will get what they want.
