Count the number of irrationally angry threads and posts by lsu fans trashing Ole Miss and there’s your answer.

Post Saban Era,

3a. Auburn
3b. Bama

Auburn and Bama are interchangeable.

A rivalry is when hate and disdain has gone both ways for decades and decades.
Auburn's rivals are Alabama and Georgia. Nothing else is really close after that.
Florida's rivals are FSU and Georgia. Miami is probably 3rd due to yearly recruiting wars and heated history since the 60's.
Alabama? Auburn and Tennessee. Nuff said.
aggy? Texas ansd Texas Tech. LSU certainly has the potential, but aggy just hasn't been a real threat for LSU to worry about.

Before this season ended:
1. Alabama
2. Ole Miss
3. Auburn
4. Florida
After? Really hard to say. Two huge changes affected the Alabama rivalry, at least for me:
1. Saban retired
2. Divisions are gone
Personally, I don't hate any team except Alabama, and I'm realizing a lot of that was just that Saban had them a step ahead of us and that we had to go through them every year to win a championship. Neither of those things are true anymore. I could easily see the rivalry returning to the pre-Saban era intensity, where I still don't like Alabama and prefer them to lose all else equal, but where they recede back to the crowd of regular rivals instead of standing out.
Historically LSU's rival is less about predefined hate for a team regardless of performance and more about hating the best competition, whoever it is. Auburn and Florida were way more intense rivalries until Saban fixed Alabama for instance.
And with two quality programs coming in that LSU will recruit against in the state of Texas, with Auburn still recovering from wayward hires, with Florida apparently suffering a wayward hire, with Alabama taking a step back from Saban's dominance, and with Georgia looming large as the biggest threat in the conference... who knows?
It's not been this wide open in ages

Are we going on rankings of who we feel our biggest rivals are?
My list:
1) Alabama
2) Florida
---- DROP OFF
3) Ole Miss
------ A LOT MORE DROP OFF
4) Arkansas
5) Auburn
6) Texas A&M
7) other conference rivals

1. Alabama
2. Tulane
3. Ole Miss
4. Florida
5. Texas A&M
Tulane, although insignificant the past thirty years, is still one of our top rivals. If we ever play them we damn well better beat the living snot out of them or I won't be happy.
In the 2000s, I'd put Florida at #2 but they've slipped because they suck.
Ole Miss has always been one of our top rivalries. We used to play them every Saturday night before or on Halloween. SEC Scheduling has screwed that up the past few years.
Auburn and Arkansas are just adversaries. Although, during the Tommy Tubberville years, Auburn was a huge rivalry, a close 2nd to Alabama.

quality post... do you feel that LSU would benefit from having a "Designated Rival" i.e. Auburn vs bama/jaw-ja or do you prefer having an open rivalry with whomever? the tradition of certain rivalries certainly adds to the charm/mystique imo.
