re: How long will the Bama/ UTenn "rivalry" last?

It's certainly not going to be anytime soon.

Until they start winning and then the sec office will put them as LSU's common opponent.

So much butthurt and Bamasession in this thread.


I love that even the UT fans don't want to end it.


You LSU fans are fricking embarrassing yourselves. Whining about Alabama's rivals.

Genro it's got nothing to do with Bama's "rival".

I thought we expanded from TSIO to why it's on the schedule...which led the conversation to conference scheduling...

All caught up now?

LSU fans can't talk about fairness in conference scheduling without Bama fans thinking we're insulting them and their TSIO rivalry with Tennessee somehow.

I guess we should probably take this argument out of this thread.

Just win your games and quit whining.

LSU fans keep whining, people keep calling them whiners.

Of course it's predictable.

Wanna change it? Quit fricking whining. It really is pathetic. That's not a flame, it's a fact. It's embarrassing.

When we lost to UT seven years in a row were we getting the shaft for having to play them every year?

When we had more teams with bye weeks before us in a single season, than every other team had had combined over five seasons... was that getting the shaft?

I don't know, but we didn't think it was a conspiracy and everyone was out to get us and we didn't constantly bitch about it.

We were focused on our team, and winning football games.

That's the difference here.

every series goes through its cycles. Not disputing that.

I could see the conference running into that issue every now and then...but who were you playing for the other 4 weeks after those byes? Vandy? Ole Miss?

LSU fans don't think everyone is out to get them. We just see that our cross division opponents next seasonhave a combined record of 22-3, while your cross divisional opponents are a combined 7-17. And then we don't owe USCe a return trip? That's not fair to them. But fear not, we'll take UGA off your schedule next year and give them to LSU. Justify that one.

No doubt. Good luck in the BCSNC

if that's all you've got to complain about in the past 20 years, then that's a very short list.

Indeed. No one could ever top LSU in terms of things to complain about. Ever.

I copied and pasted this from another board It says a lot about the way your fanbase is represented on Tiger Rant. Go to TR at any point since 1/9 and at least half of it is bitching about something.

all the entities that--according to the TigerRant--are conspiring against the Bayou Bengals.

2. the REC
3. ESPN (sportscenter, insider, OTL, the magazine, Top 10, baseball tonight, basically all of it)

16. The Manning family (for not giving LSU any of the sons)
17. University of Florida (for being their SEC east permanent game)
18. Lee Corso (doesn't alway pick LSU)
