They're our rival


Dude, it isn't 1967 anymore.

Actually, I guess the last time this "rivalry" was a thing was back in the mid-80's when they had the big brawl at the end of the game. That has been 30+ years ago.

Tulane should be no more of a blip on LSU's radar than ULL or LA Tech. I have no desire to play them, and if we did, beating them would mean no more to me than beating Southeastern. I also have no desire to help those stuck up pricks financially by giving them $1M to play in Tiger Stadium.

It wasn't a rivalry outside of NOLA at any part of my time as a tiger fan.. early 70s

A lot of bigger schools offer “multiple games for 1” deals to smaller schools.

ULL is a classic example. They’ve done it with Oklahoma State, Texas A&M and Alabama in the past. LA Tech had a similar arrangement with Mississippi State a few years ago.
