Should we make up a trophy for the LSU/aTm game like the golden boot?

Try and jump start a rivalry that really isn't one?

How do you try "and do something". If you accomplish what you tried to do, then you didn't "try", you did.

The correct phrasing is...."Try to jump start..."


Sorry just on a personal mission to end this "try and do" syndrome.

playing 25 times in the last 50 years, and not in the last 15, isnt exactly a "rivarly"

we had a great rivalry with Aggies in the past. The crowds were electric. It was just like a big sec game. It can be the same.

I'm sorry, brother... but if you don't recognize Texas A&M as a rival of LSU, your memory is either very short, or there's something wrong with you.

I would like to think that your memory is just short.

There's a lot of deep connections between LSU and A&M and it's not just football.

They would clearly be a major in-conference rival for us, and that's why I'm excited about having them over.

This.

A&M is a rival as has been said. I would love it. I used to be very pumped for the games against them. This would be a great addition for the SEC.

If aTM joins the SEC, Texas recruiting will be on the minds of all LSU fans while we play @ aTm.

Therefore, it will be a BIG game, every time we go there.

My guess is that the aTm recruiting of Louisiana, which if you will notice the list of aTM signees was significant, will continue.
THey did very well in North LA this year.

When we host, we need to make their stay in LA an embarrassment.

Its is going to be a real and important rivalry from day 1.

TAMU is a bigger rivalry than Arky. (For those Tiger fans who are 35 and older)

I hope they join the SEC - it will be fun.

Whooa, wait just a damn minute there!

Jerry Jones is paying 10 million a year for Arkansas and Texas A&M to become a rivalry game, so don't go thinking that the new kid on the block is going to be LSU's new/old rivalry game!

The line forms behind my Razorbacks!

the trophy should be Upside down Longhorns with the phrase...

you our bitch now...

either way if LSU or A&M wins...the fact that Texas is getting fricked over remains...

im 37. i dont like arkansas, but i still HATE texas a&m. sorry, dude, but its not the same. growing up i hated notre dame, florida, miami, and texas a&m. something about playing them every year that i miss. i miss the bitterness. bucky richardson, r.c. slocumb, quinten corryatt, the wrecking crew, the overalls, the shitty astroturf field, the stupid yell leaders.
i welcome the rivalry back with open arms.

+1 Sounds like some folk don't REALLY understand what a "rivalry" is.

I'm only 27 and I clearly remember the A&M rivalry being a good one. I hope it comes back. Outside of Tulane, they seem like one of the only true rivals we've ever had.
