Good descriptions.
I think a true rivalry requires reciprocity, a sense of intense desire on the part of both teams to whup the other and schadenfraude at the rivals failure. To have that the teams need to be pretty competitive over a long period of time and I think the fan bases need a lot of opportunity to interact.
Not all teams, even consistently good teams have that. LSU doesn't seem to.

A shame, I look forward to seeing how the A&M game shakes out. I thought LSU played them pretty consistently in the late 80s, early 90s?
