I say yes, Arky has always had that little brother syndrome with LSU, always wanting there to be a rivalry, its always a MASSiVE game for them, but honestly this game isn't exactly a game that LSU circles on the calendar.

It seems like aTm is just more of a natural fit for a rival than Arky.

What say you?

Yes. aTm is already a more natural rival and the rivalry will only grow from here. Arky needs to work on hating Mizzou more because that's where things are heading.

They are already more of a rival than Arky ever was, but that is not saying much.

Considering it was in the past, I think it's great as a last game. Maybe they'll win a game sometime.

Arky is just a very young rivalry. Only 24 years of playing eachother every year.

It has the potential to grow, but you gotta realize that most rivalries in this conference are damn near 100 years old

A&M has always been a rival.

It was just put on hold for a little bit.

Yes,


Arkansas and Texas A&M were both members of the Southwest conference. They have more history and fit in naturally to be rivals. They are a bigger rivalry.

aTm started out more of a natural rival than Arky ever was. But if you want to talk about little brother syndrome, that is the Aggies' specialty. They were UT's little brothers for many years and now they're ours.

For me, it's sooooo much fun to watch them lose.

A&M is already more of a rival than Arkansas. Hell, they were more of a rival before they joined SEC

No... I look at it this way... You give me one game to choose to go see and A&M isn't even in my top 3.

Bama
Florida
Ole Miss

I say TAMU will absolutely pass Arkansas if they haven't already. LSU fans hate Ole Mis, Bama, Auburn and Florida way more than Arkansas and there are a few others on equal footing. Despite all the push to make them a rival, they can't surpass the other schools. I could easily see TAMU climbing the ranks of biggest rivals and I fully expect them to be obviously above Arkansas within 10 years.
