LSU is never gonna have a rival because they don't have another school in-state. That pretty much kills it right there and the others mentioned above have such deep roots that fans were raised on.

I think once Saban is gone from Bama LSU will develop some sort of rival with somebody in closer proximity but Saban being at Bama makes it their biggest game as of right now but in time LSU-Bama will be pretty uneventful like it was up until 2007.

Doesn't have to be an in-state school to be a rivalry.

Many Alabama fans view Tennessee as the biggest rivalry.
Many Auburn fans view Georgia as the biggest rivalry.

Think it just takes a long history of good games and bit of hatred between the fans.

There's really no reason that LSU can't find a rival. Just may take a while.

Seems like LSU/aTm are trying to do that. May be one sided though.
