Where did that originate? I mean, I know LSU fans stink and they suck, but how did they ever become tied with corndogs?

Auburn fans took the insult from the OU fans. They called Nebraska fans that on a message board. Cornsdogs/Cornhuskers. Get it?
Then the massive population of under educated people in the South ran with it and the rest is history.
Funniest thing about it, is that most people love corndogs
It doesn't bother LSU fans in the least so keep on saying it if you'd like.

Everyone knew ATM fans would be more open to having a penis shaped nickname for their rivals.

Kind of like Gumps but if you've seen Forrest Gump, it should be obvious. We think nothing of that either but it's all in fun (mostly). Besides really, who cares?

An LSU fan shoved a corn dog up your moms arse once. Nickname stuck.

There are many unique traditions in college football. From Auburn’s rolling Toomer’s Corner to Wisconsin’s “Jump Around” and Les Miles having his pre-game meal of grass, each tradition is unique and beloved by it’s fans.
However, there is one tradition, that is unlike any other tradition in today’s sports world. It is an infamously hilarious tradition, one that was started by someone who still has not revealed his true identity, but goes by the name “deepblue” on Autigers.com.
I’m referring, of course, to the tradition of telling LSU fans that they smell like corn dogs.
It all started, when “deepblue” made a lengthy and poetic post on Autigers.com several years ago. The post started with:
“LSU fans smell just like corn dogs. Yes, it is often said, but so, so true. LSU fans do smell like corn dogs. I would never tell them that to their face though. This is something better said at internet distances. Even now, I am afraid. I am afraid that they'll know I said it. I'll walk past an LSU fan someday, and he'll see that look in my eye that gives it away. That look that says, "gee, what is that smell? Is it corn dogs?" The next thing you know, I'll have flat tires on my car.”
The post is quite lengthy, and ranges from pointers on how to handle children around LSU fans, to safety tips while in Baton Rouge.
“ I think this may be why a lot of fans get beaten up by LSU fans. If you attend a game in Baton Rouge, try to avoid telling them that they smell like corn dogs. Say something else instead. Like, "Wow, LSU sure does have a great team this year. This is going to be a great SEC game." While the post is satirical, it caught fire. The tradition spread from Auburn to other SEC schools, and then to the entire NCAA.
If searched for on Youtube, countless videos connecting LSU and corn dogs will be found, created by numerous fan-bases.
Clinton Durst, a former Auburn punter who played for the Tigers from 2008-2009 is a firm believer that the myth is true.
Originally from Destin, FL, Durst grew up a Florida State fan before coming to the Plains, and did not hear about the LSU connection to corn dogs until a team meeting with former Auburn coach Tommy Tuberville.
“It was a team meeting with Coach Tuberville. He was trying to lighten up the mood a little bit and he referred to them as ‘corn dogs’.” Durst said while laughing.
Some of the newcomers on the team were confused as to what Tuberville meant, but Durst claims that when they asked, he simply responded “You’ll figure it out once you get there.”
Sure enough, Durst says that the visitors locker room proved the myth as fact.
“In the visitors locker room, it smells like a million rotten corndogs.” Durst said.
“It smells like they threw a thousand (corndogs) in the locker room and let them mold for a year.”
Former Auburn long-snapper Josh Harris who played for the Tigers from 2008-2012 and is now the long-snapper for the Atlanta Falcons also corroborates Durst’s story.
“When you step on campus (in Baton Rouge) it really smells like corndogs, almost like you’re at a fair.” Harris said.
Whether you’re a believer or not of the LSU corndog myth, there is no denying that “deepblue” started arguably the most hilarious tradition in college football.

The LSU fans like to talk about how it was "stolen" from Oklahoma.
I can't speak to that, but it's kind of like me making fun of your sister because she's a fat whore and then turning around and making fun of your mom because she's a fat whore. Yeah, the insult was originally meant for your sister, but it's still just as true about your mom.

I know. It's an offseason topic, but it's always fun to find that LSU fan that keeps saying:
"STOP CALLING US CONRDOGS!!! IT DOESN'T MAKE US MAD!! STOP!!
It's clear that they are riled up and it's fun to keep calling them corndogs.
"STOP IT!! YOU'RE MAKING YOURSELF LOOK DUMB!! WE SMELL LIKE BOURBON AND SEAFOOD, NOT CORNDOGS!!!
But you're so mad.
"AUBURN STOLE THAT shite FROM OKLAHOMA!! WE'RE NOT MAD. STOP frickING SAYING WE SMELL LIKE CORNDOGS!! WE frickING DON'T!! IT DOESN'T EVEN PHASE US!!
You're funny when you're mad.
"STAAAAHHHHHPP!!!"
I smell corndogs.

Auburn fan stole it from a school who made it up about Nebraska I think.
It really isn't funny because it really makes no sense.

I am close to retirement as was considering making a corndog vending bus and go to all the LSU games.... I love corndogs and they are cheap to fry. I am a Bama fan but I like LSU and corndogs. "Get your deep fried corndogs!!!! Smells just like a real LSU fan".

But "corndogs" sounds Cajun. It just works on them.
