LSU vs Tulane

Some points...
Texas-OU will return. That rivalry hit a dead spot in the late mid-'90's when OU sucked, and it's a bit dead right now because Texas sucks...But it's shown that it is often a premier game. It had some great moments in the 2000's, some in the '80's, '70's, and '60's.
Notre Dame-Stanford is played yearly, but it's not like it has routinely been a kick arse game. I don't recall many games that were hyped prior to Harbaugh.
Florida State-Miami will never reach the appeal it had during the late-'80's/early-'90's...partly because society shuns any players that have the flair that the players then had. As far as talent goes, it's sort of like Texas-OU where we haven't had two great teams on the field in a while.
You could go through any rivalry and find some stretches where they lose luster. But when old ones fade for a bit, others are restored.
LSU-Alabama is a marquee game, but do we really need to revisit when these teams had issues?

This. It was a big deal in the 60's and before....then Tulane made perhaps one of the worst decisions ever in sports and got out of the SEC
