I would say AU probably means more to most UA fans. Esp given the recent success, or lack thereof, of the programs. But UT/ UA and AU/UGA are very important rivalry games.
Although recently it seems like the UA/LSU game has been more important in regards to winning the conference than that of UT. Plus the whole Saban thing.
It really depends on where, as a Bama fan, you live and which of the two programs is having the most success as to which would be the bigger of the two games. But I can see the UT game being dropped (or UGA for AU) before the Iron Bowl. Although I can't imagine a season without playing either of them.
If UA didnt play UT, LSU, & AU in reg season and then UF in SECCG it just wouldn't seem right.

I agree with Titus from an LSU standpoint. Our rivalry with Bama has gotten really heated the past few years. But I think UT/UA is diminishing since UT hasn't done anything in nearly 15 years. Call me a fashion freak but there's something about seeing LSU and Bama line up against each other. Two very tradition rich teams with traditional unis grinding it out.
