I loved the series when it came back in '86 and actually considered them our biggest rival. I'd love over time to see the Arkansas game get moved and A&M be our season ending game in time.

Lots of big games and moments over the years.

Be careful what you wish for. Rumblings are that this game will end up being played on Thanksgiving night in the near future.

I'm pretty fired up about it. LSU needs a rival and the "rivalry" between LSU and Arky seemed forced. Seemed? No, it WAS forced. This has a good chance of becoming a great rivalry. I'm with you that I'd like to see the LSU-A&M game become our season-ender.

Not me. More teams in the SEC; I did not want.

RC Slocum played here at McNeese St and grew up I believe in nearby Oakdale, so it was of special interest having a hometown boy coach at that level. I hated aTm in the 90's

Get ready to have Thanksgiving dinner every other year at your tailgate if this happens.

Excited. I think in a decade, they will be our biggest rival. But I hate the 11 AM start. It's hard to get your hate up that early.

I hated Slocum, also. Losing to "the wrecking crew". I lived for a short time in Texas. I always sided with UT over aTm. The 80's/90's sealed it. When I was a kid, I hated Da U and aTm the most. I didn't want more SEC teams, but glad they are back on.

I am excited but not nearly as much as I was about this rivalry when I lived in SW LA. With Tejas looming just across the Sabine and with all of Slocum's La. connections, it made things really spicy, at least for me.

That was a strange 10 year run we had with A&M. I think A&M won 6 of 10, but it was LSU doing most of the good work early in the series and then A&M dominating as LSU entered the dark years.

I hope it is on Thanksgiving night, just to hear the whining from everyone whose mother won't let them miss dinner.

I'm fired up and will delight everyone with some exciting LSU-Tex A&M trivia questions shortly.

I'm excited about it. Renewed rivalry and renewed hate.
