for some reason, Kentucky a lot.
Kentucky showed up on LSU's schedule annually around 1950, when Bear Bryant coached there. Then Bear went to A&M, and the aggies started showing up on LSU's schedule regularly. When Bryant went to Alabama in 1958, LSU and Alabama started playing each other every year (starting in '64).
Bear figured out he could make his teams some money playing in Tiger Stadium. Vaught had already figured it out, as had others.

Maybe, but the real reason was his personal relationship with Cholly Mac. They were very good friends.
