Eh i dont mind it. That game can grow into something we havent had in a while. I get theyll always hate texas more but it could still be a solid rivalry.

Everyone mentioning Florida, but I'm gonna miss the annual Auburn matchup. That's been a great series too.

ESPN was never going to give up an annual LSU Bama game now that it's on their networks. 2022 game was ESPNs most watched regular season game in 7 years.

I agree. Florida instead of the Quitting Farmers


+1 Florida over the Aggies. If the Aggies want LSU then I'm OK with going against not being the ones to give them what they covet.

I for selfish reason am extremely happy a permanent opponent will be here in Texas whether it be the Horns here in Austin or A&M in CS.
Tigers fans need to realize that series will get pretty good over time with both fan bases rabid as they are.

It isn't like Florida fans are much of an upgrade on Aggie fans.

He won't be coaching in 3 years. No way he works past 75.

You sound like a complete moron.
But given the boards obsession with this, there’s a large percentage of you in the closet.

Isn't this always the case? Saban is in decline so that will affect Bama.

Of course the SEC cuts Florida from LSU’s schedule after LSU owns Florida for a decade and ties the series. Can’t let LSU get too far out ahead of Florida.

I could be totally wrong here, but I don’t see them winning another natty with Saban. Paterno and Bowden’s win percentage dropped precipitously after the age of 70. As great as Saban is/was, age catches up to everyone eventually. He can sign all of the top players he wants, but he can’t hoard them on the bench like he used to with the transfer portal.

I would rather Bama than Arkansas or Oklahoma, which certain scenarios make more likely.

But, Texas A&M, Ole Miss, and Bama don't solve the Thanksgiving weekend problem for us.

I'm still betting we don't get Bama. Or, more accurately, I don't think they will give Bama us.

GEAUX TIGERS!

If you don’t want Bama every year you must have never been at the Stadium when the Tigers beat the Bammers. It is glorious
