Bama LSU Rivalry Question

Saban was at LSU from 2000-2004 and won one title. He's been at Bama since 2007 and has won three.
Before Saban ever coached in the SEC and even during the time Saban was at LSU and with the Dolphins, how intense was the hate between these two? Its clearly one of the top rivalries in the SEC today and has been since Saban went to Bama + won 3 championships, but was the hate anything close to what it is now before the Saban factor was there?
Part of me thinks that if Saban would have gone to any other SEC West program post-LSU and had won 3 titles, LSU fans would have that program at the top of their "hate" list.
True or false?

No rivalry, we owned them.

Anyone else remember the run in that supposedly took place between Saban at LSU and Franchione at Bama?

I'm still getting used to them being good. I hated Auburn more growing up.

LSU has always hated us because they're jealous that no matter what happens, everyone recognizes Bama as the face of the conference. But we didn't really give too many shits until they stood in our way of winning a title every year.

Can we ban all A&M fans?
They all fricking suck here.

I didn't care then and don't today.

LSU is a big game just about every year. If that qualifies it as a rivalry then so be it. Look forward to this game.

He only won one title because he had to play Florida every year at LSU...

Don't blame us for all the hype. Blame the networks.

Could you restate the question?

LSU and UA aren't rivals in a traditional sense. On the other hand, you, my jizz cup swilling, goat humping friend, are.

This game is no different than what UT-UF was in the 90's. it's currently the premiere match-up but will fade in the next 5-10 years just as that one did because they aren't their historic rival.

I'm personally still kind of conflicted about the whole LSU-Bama question.
When I was a kid, the first game I ever saw in BDS was against LSU in 1990. The fans were passionate, and the few I came into contact with were extremely kind to me as a nine-year-old kid. It left a lasting impression on me and LSU has been my second favorite team ever since.
Now since Coach Saban has come to 'Bama, the amount of vitriol between the fans has been kind of uncomfortable, but hasn't diminished my respect for LSU's program any.

frick off. We hate everyone.

The reason Alabama moved up to No. 1 in LSU's "hate" list, is that Ole Miss has competitively fallen off in the past decade, while the Alabama-LSU competition has been about national titles. Ole Miss is LSU's #1 traditional rival.
