re: Too Bad LSU Doesn't Have An Intrastate Rival

What about their SB with Arkansas?

That's an interstate rival, not the same thing. And even though there's been efforts to make it a real rivalry, it hasn't happened so far, IMO. Playing for the 'boot' isn't something most LSU fans are waiting for every year. Something may develop with A&M but that still wouldn't be an intrastate rival.

LSU owns the Louisiana schools. And I guess in a way that's a good thing but on the other hand the state is missing the enjoyment of real rivalries within the state.
