Even allowing for the war years, after 1942 they didn't meet again til 1955.
And didn't play again until 1966. Only then did they become regular opponents.
A more dramatic example might be LSU and Vandy, both SEC charter members, in the same conference for 94 seasons now. They've only met 31 times in all those years.

Isn't that just poor scheduling? 10 team conference should allow you to play 9 conference games against every team. Rotate every other year home and away. Even if you go to 12 teams, it's 2 teams that rotate out each season so you'd only miss playing them once every 4-5 years.
