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.

Well, Bama and Tennessee are the only SEC teams in the top 10 for all-time wins, and I think the teams are much closer in terms of historical significance and rivalry than UA and AU.

We've been down 7 or 8 years. In the last 15 we have 1 NC , 2 SEC chmps, shared or won 6 div titles. In this last decade when we fell off we still have 4 10 win seasons and 4 tied or outright East titles. We would have went to a second NC game in 2001 if LSU hadn't upset us. UT-Bama is the top rivalry. They just happened to get good when we slipped a little. The Iron Bowl only became big the last 5 or 6 years. It's always been UT- Bama.
