Doesn't Ole Miss consider MSU its biggest rival?
I don't and neither do a lot of people.
Here's an interesting poll that SI did last year with all the SEC schools.
Almost 75% of Ole Miss fans said LSU was our biggest rival. 24.5% said Mississippi State.
However, 95.7% of State fans said OM was their biggest rival.

Why are you on this board trying to convince LSU fans you are our biggest rival? If a team is your biggest rival you don't have to tell them that, they know it, and clearly the majority of LSU fans no longer regard Ole Miss as our biggest rival. Ole Miss = Tulane in the 1970's. They had everything to gain and nothing to lose. LSU has become the team you have to beat to make your season. The opposite is not true for LSU. Go away!

Great link.
Only 13% of LSU fans by that survey regard Ole Miss our biggest rival (numbers that don't seem contradicted by this thread at least).
Great rivalries (think OU-Texas [90%+ for each], OSU-Michigan [96%+ for each]) seem to have symmetry between them.
It's at best a secondary rivalry if 87% of your opponents' fan base doesn't regard you to be their top rival.
