15 SEC championships since 2012
How many does LSU have since 2012?
Sarge...the history of LSU dates back to ~1860 and aTm to ~1871. The ultimate measure of success, in college sports, is winning a NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP. You can make the argument that LSU started ~11 years earlier so we can remove 11 NC's from our total. That's being very generous...right? That still puts LSU in the Top 10 ALL TIME with 30+ but Aggy doesn't even make the list of the Top 40.
If you insist on comparing SEC resumes, let these numbers sink in...
SEC Football Championships: LSU 11 - aTm 0
SEC Baseball Championships: LSU 16 - aTm 0
SEC Basketball Championships: LSU 11 - aTm 1 (but that 71-38 GAME was so awesome that maybe we can count it as another season co-championship??)
You will be pushing daisies before those numbers ever get close enough to compare. FWIW...I honesty hoped that the LSU-aTm rivalry would reach a level of greatness due to the athletic potential of both schools. The hate for Aggy seems to grow every year and it's not just from LSU. There is a reason that your former "rivals" have followed Aggy to the SECR to show their hate whenever possible. That's a type of hate that I'm starting to understand. I've seen comments where you've stated that you don't flame. Is that still true?
