The reason that LSU and A&M hate each other is because they see themselves in each other.

There's no hate like self-hate, and LSU and A&M are very similar schools: ag schools, land grant schools, military background, petroleum engineering schools, great bands, rabid fan base, historical success in football and baseball, relatively close in proximity, the list goes on and on.

In the long run, I see LSU and A&M developing into the SEC's hottest rivalry.

This. But it's gonna take a few A&M NCs to get there, apparently.

Great point - Plus we have passionate fans. And, TAMU has KaiserSosa99, a longhorn fan, out to trash the Aggies.

While it's true that both LSU and A&M were exactly the same (military/ag schools) from the point of their creation to well into the 1930s, Gov. Huey Long redesigned LSU from a military school format to a school similar in format to the University of Texas. It seems to me like LSU has more in common with UT these days.
