It might be a bigger rivalry for OSU to play Alabama every year. Think Michigan would be a bigger rivalry if they (OSU) had to play Alabama once a year? I know OSU's record against the SEC. You couldn't get either Michigan or OSU to play Alabama on a regular , for any amount of money.

Do you hear what Joey B said: "Ohio State, Team up North?" He still can't say "Michigan." He's a Tiger now, but some part of him is still a Buckeye. That's as it should be. He will soon be a proud alumnus of both great schools.

LSU Bama doesn’t sniff Mich OSU

Obviously he correctly thinks it’s Michigan osu he just can’t say that right now

Future politician - great answer to a trap question.

Hester Carries•54 months

Yeah...we are allowed to say Bama. I think that answers it.

Great answer to a really stupit question. There are about 1,000 answers to what he was asked and he gave about the only good one. It’s Michigan-OSU and it isn’t even close, that’s a rivalry up there with Yankees-Sox and Duke-UNC

Stupid*

LSU and that school to our east is a current blood feud and a superior game and it's the game we care about and that college football fans care about. It's current and it's relevant. But Michigan vs Ohio State has an entire mythology built around it over a long period of time. It's part of the lore of college football history over a century.

Uh, I don't care about OSU or Meeshigan or who wins unless it benefits LSU.

Uhm LSU needs to occasionally beat Alabama before it can be considered a rivalry. Hopefully on Saturday.

OSU has a 7-game win streak vs UM right now. j/s

Little Billy LSU Bama goes much further back than just 10 years you know? Ok, maybe you don't with such an asinine comment. Kids!

We’re not even Alabama’s biggest rival. Saying we are makes us sound stupid and desperate.

Deltatiger•54 months

It makes us sound like ole miss fans!

BayouBengal99•54 months

I’d bet big money that Bama thinks LSU is easily their best game of the year therefore biggest rival. If not LSU then who would it be? Auburn? LSU the last 8 years hasn’t been wining but we’ve been competitive in most games and since 2006 we are easily their biggest rival.

SoulGlo•54 months

BB99...Auburn is their rival. It's about hate, not always competitiveness. LSU has Florida, Auburn, Ole Miss, ArKansas, and Alabama. LSU is LSU, we don't need a "biggest rivalry."

LSU is in a much more competitive conference - several rivals. Ohio State only has one.

LL7•54 months

Joe will make a good politician. That was a good answer. But in reality, I think we all know that OSU/Michigan is a bigger rivalry.

DeafVallyBatnR•54 months

UM and OSU is an historic rivalry. LSU vs BAMA is a regional rivalry. Kid grew up OSU and you know what he was thinking. Good for him for not answering.

LSULyle00690•54 months

Actually grew up Nebraska

ApexTiger•54 months

I think OSU and UM is bigger rival game...but LSU Bama the last 15 years has been a much bigger game...

ChunkyLover54•54 months

Since Saban. Had a rivalry feel in 08 imo

prplhze2000•54 months

No one makes commercials about the LSU Bama rivalry.

BayouTiga•54 months

Loaded B.S. question from media talking head. Na, too much credit.....media pencil dick is more appropriate.

Datbayoubengal•54 months

Michigan and Ohio St is THE rivalry in all of football. Even though Oklahoma/Texas, and Bama/Auburn are high class, elite tier rivalries, nothing matches that one. It's not called "The Game", for nothing. If they ever faced each other as 1# and #2, it could probably destroy viewership records for a CFB game that's not a championship game.

Datbayoubengal•54 months

I will say that LSU/Bama has reached a crazy level before so it's not like a deep seeded rivalry is really needed for the whole football nation to tune in.

crescentcity•54 months

The Game is actually the name of the Harvard-Yale rivalry.

Homesick Tiger•54 months

I wished he'd said, "actually, Army-Navy".

SomeLSUguy•54 months

Of course it is Michigan/Ohio St... If Saban had gone to Auburn, A&M, Arkansas or even Florida and turned them into an all time historically great program that was playing for a NC every year, it would be LSU/Team X. This rivalry is a past decade and some thing - and it has been great fun to be a part of... But Michigan/Ohio St is a historic rivalry. Good answer by our boy though.

GoldenGuy•54 months

Everyone knows Bama’s Biggest Rival is Tennessee. *Roll Eyes* For LSU, Ole Miss is probably the only team we treat as a ‘rival’. There’s a trophy, a chant, and plenty of year-spoiling moments each time we play.

Lsu vs Tulane lol sike
