By beating LSU

And that was the game that killed the BCS.

Lowest rating in BCS history. . .and it killed the most crucial anti-playoff argument: that a playoff would diminish the importance of the regular season.

No doubt it is Alabama. Who cared about Florida until Spurrier got there? The rivalry with Alabama goes back a looooooooong way. And I am not sure I get the "older people" think the Bama rivalry is better. I am 25 years old, and i hate Alabama with a white hot hatred.

Auburn and UT are our biggest rivals. Every Bama fan agrees. You don't get to tell us who our rivals are. We will not be your rivals.

I have cousins in Knoxville. They are Bama fans. They put up with shite all the damn time. Their cars get keyed. A teacher chewed out and and tried to send home my 10-year cousin for wearing a Bama shirt. They fricking hate us.

We'll decide who our rivals are. . .

I had my LSU flag ripped off my car and cut into shreds.

I was a teacher in the area. I caught more shite as an LSU fan, than I saw any Bama fan take.

I never saw any.

I remember when you guys hired Saban. All the Vols fans were congratulating the Bama fans on the hire.

That's fine. Consider us your rivals all you want.

But this thread is about which one is a bigger rivalry.

One has mutual hatred and has been one of the most important games for both teams for decades.

The other has hatred from only one side and has only been the most important game for both teams for a few years.

Now tell me which one is bigger?

You are not our Rivals, don't want you to be either. Older LSU fans hate Ole Miss. Even though Bama has had recent success against us, y'all were not a factor before Saban in most young people's eyes and most young kids formed their opinion based on the as of late mentality.

I don't see hatred as a prereq.

We see you as a utility, in the sense of a regular competitive rivalry. You are referring to geographic rivalries.

You just don't seem to get what a rivalry is about.

Do you think USCw-Oregon is a bigger rivalry now than USCw-UCLA? Serious question.
