A&M is our rival as much as we are Bamas.

this is about to start turning into a legit rivalry I think. Jimbo seems to have them in the right direction in my opinion

ETA: not saying that they'll be a championship football program (although I wouldn't be shocked), but they'll start beating us every couple years (maybe this week) to remind us that we should've sacked up and payed Jimbo whatever he wanted. Not even mentioning that they'll eventually be a more talented team than they are now once Jimbo gets a few recruiting cycles under his belt.

Forced rivalry.


More hatred for Bama, Auburn, Ole Miss, and Florida.

Heck I hate Arkansas more than the little brother Aggies.

A+M used to be our pretty big rival. I remember growing up to Aggie jokes and honestly thought that all aggies were morons even though I didn't even know what an aggie was as a kid.


Currently, they have a lot of ground to make up before they can be considered our Rival.

We are their Alabama for sure. They still talk a lot of shite though, kinda like our fanbase actually. Lol! I never liked playing on Thanksgiving.

As long as LSU doesn't have to play on Thanksgiving or the Friday after, I'm good with leaving the game where it is on the schedule.

Let's not forget outside of our own state where our biggest recruiting base is. And you better believe jimbo and Herman will dog fight with is over that.

Arkansas rivalry was forced.

This was team we played from 86 thru 95.

This WILL become a rivalry. The old schoolers will back me up on this.

We’ve played them 56 times...more than a lot of SEC schools. It’s more of a rivalry than Arkansas. It has a lot of potential.

Eventually A&M and Texas will renew their rivalry and play each other as the last game of the season. It is inevitable.

I say we start a rivalry with Hawaii because that would be a nice trip over thanksgiving weekend.

Back in the day, LSU played either Arky or aTm on Thanksgiving. I’m talking about back in the golden ages, 1970 and earlier.

Playing either one of these teams Thanksgiving weekend has some roots

It’s a legit rivalry, and I enjoy it.

I don’t know where the idea came from that it has to be competitive/back and forth/50-50 for it to be called a rivalry. When Navy beat Army so many years in a row, were they not rivals? When’s the last time Michigan beat OSU? Can we not call that one a rivalry anymore?

The “rivalry resistance” of some of our fans is kinda dumb, if you ask me.

I’m not a fan of them even being in the SEC. Further enables thier little bro insecurities and gives them way more than the league gets out of them being in it. They’re into UT. Stay with UT. Now you don’t even play them?

And that place is just so corny It’s hard to even watch. Stay in Texas with Texas.
