Do you want Arkansas or Texas A&M as end of year "Rival?"

In light of this Thursday or Friday business, who do you, as an LSU fan want as this forced rival?
We all know the histories: LSU and Arkansas played 37 times and nearly annually through the 30's but they had not played since 1966 prior to SEC expansion; A&M and LSU have met a total of 50 times but 16 years have passed before the Cotton Bowl. LSU and A&M played annually from 1960-1975 and again 1986-1995.
It is my hope we keep Arkansas. I appreciate the history with A&M but too much time has passed. The last 6 years especially have been wildly entertaining and often consequential. It was a forced rivalry but 20 years in I think it's starting to stick.
Thoughts?

I don't really care about either team, so whoever we play is fine.

A&M. Ark feels like a forced rivalry. Growing up, A&M was treated as the real thing,

A&M no doubt... it makes it a texas vs La thing now.. we now have a bigger market watching the games now

it's going to be A&M, so this thread is pointless

I think bringing back the rivalry with A&M would be awesome, but that doesn't mean we have to boot Arky out of the last game to do it.

A$M and it's not close.

i think it's gonna be awesome that razorback fans are gonna link this thread saying we're scared to play them.

do not care...just don't want on Thursday or Friday. LSU football games are supposed to be played on Saturdays.

A&M is a real rivalry for LSU.
Let it be the aggies.

Doesn't really matter to me, as long as it isn't on Thanksgiving day.

The entire board is useless along with 99% of everything you do if you think about it.
