I do have a problem with the SEC saying UF was more of a rival

In terms of rivals, it seems that Tiger fans don't hate anyone more than the team they're playing next.

But if hatred defines a rivalry, it's Tulane hands down. Want proof? Start a thread stating that Tulane is LSU's rival. The hatred and outrage is astounding whenever this topic comes up. What's really funny is how passionate LSU fans can be in denying the rivalry - me thinks they doth protest too much. If it weren't, they wouldn't really have much to say on the subject.

But I put rivalries in different categories. Think about it, who would you hate losing to more, Ole Miss or Alabama? Who would you like beating more Ole Miss or Alabama? And yes, I see those as two different questions.
