Hoping we turn things around this year, but I am glad that we have that A&M game on the schedule now. So, what happened to A&M?


Different teams have problems with different teams is the non troll answer. A&M has whacked Arkansas the last few times we've played while Arkansas has thumped LSU, who in turn, has crushed the Aggies.

Basically LSU, reacting to the increase in spread type teams, has become good at whipping those teams. At the same time they've increasingly had trouble handling physical pro style play action passing teams like Bama and Arkansas.

As odd as this will sound, its become a bit rare to run into an I or A formation running attack that sets you up for the play action pass.

A&M owned that arse and then LSU quit and backed out of the series.




LSU is 31-20-3 all time with LSU holding the all time win streak at 6 from 1960-1965. They have never owned us. Typical gump talking out his arse

I say this every time in these threads, once the little fairies beat us a couple of times the rivalry will be renewed.

IDK why other Ags pretend we don't see LSU as a rival. It's typically the most anticipated game of the year since we joined the SEC.

Looking forward to Thanksgiving at Kyle.

I think it is tongue in cheek. They are our Thanksgiving game which is traditionally our big rivalry.

You hated to play us cause we were kicking your arse.

LSU was 4-1 vs A&M during my undergraduate years.

Try a different tack.

Yep, on September 3rd, 1995, A&M was 19-26-3 vs LSU.

On September 15, 1996, A&M was 2-1 vs USL.

Honestly man, I think they are just a more exciting team to play because of the history between us. When we first joined the SEC we had sjwU as our thanksgiving game and noone gave a shite. Maybe I'm alone in this, but LSU is the most anticipated game (and Bama, but that's only because we beat them in 2012).

Finally, an Ag who gets it. And we look forward to the games against aTm. There is some history there and the whole LA/TX rivalry; it just fits.

I think it's just part of the dick swinging contest on tRant, but both sides refuse to admit that they care. It's hilarious though because on any given afternoon, half of the front page is LSU/Aggy troll threads. I wouldn't have it any other way though.

Hold a 71-38 sign up this fall against LSU. It may help your football team. I mean, it certainly can't hurt -- they'll need all the help they can because clearly your coaching staff can't figure LSU and Les Miles out.
