Who cares? We don't have a true rivalry anyway.

Florida? Has UGA and even FSU
Bama? Auburn and Tennessee
Auburn? Bama and Georgia
Ole Miss? Miss State

That leaves Arkansas and aTm. aTm is scared shitless of Texas. They might have wanted LSU to be that rivalry, but now if Daddy comes home, they will slide LSU to the back burner (unless we end up in the division with them, with no Texas). They will still keep a close eye on Texas though. Arkansas is just MEH...

this is true, and is one of the only things I don't like about LSU football.

Don't get me wrong - we have several really strong, emotional games against Bama, Auburn, and Florida.
