don't have time for that but you can.
I’ve done it before but don’t have the numbers handy. I just remember Alabama has the most total wins against other Big 6 teams while LSU was dead last.

To be fair, we rarely ever played Tennessee until 1992.
We also barely played Auburn until we became division rivals in 1992.
We would play Georgia occasionally, but this was still rare.
We started playing Florida annually in the 70's.
So basically we haven't had as much opportunity since the others had multiple annual rivalries with each other. All we had was Alabama.

To be fair, Big 6 membership has changed greatly over the years.
From the SEC's start in 1933 until the 1980s Auburn and Florida had won only 1 SEC title combined (and that single title was won by a team on NCAA probation). Alabama and LSU did not play either of those schools for years after the SEC was founded.
Bama and LSU did play Ole Miss and Tulane (which won 9 SEC titles combined early on) annually back then, however.
