Texas seems to have a lot of teams that do not like them, so I wanted to get the Longhorns to rank their rivals please in descending order from most hated. I am guessing it will have a little bit to do with where you live in Texas.

TIA

The basics are OU, A&M, Arkansas.

Which I guess we will play EVERY year in the SEC? We are going to have some rowdy-arse games.

And then Bama cuz they bumped us off in 09. And then for me - not a big LSU fan.

For me, I think you have to put OU number 1. Been playing that game continuously for almost 120 years and we hold a slight 12 game lead in the series (with many coming early in the series). OU has been on a good run over the past 2 decades though. Some UT fans would say it's aggie and I can understand that one for obvious reasons.
A very, very, distant 3rd would be piggy but we all know they would have us number 1 by a long shot.

So nobody else that you would put above Bama or LSU? Interesting

Oklahoma
Texas A&M
Arkansas
Texas Tech
Baylor

I imagine the last two will eventually be replaced by LSU (in baseball at least) and whoever else in the sec we start to play regularly across all sports

Rice used to be a great rival in baseball, but they’ve fallen off a lot in the past 20 years

Everybody hates us, but I only view these three as rivals

OU
A&M
Arkansas

That is kind of what I thought. Interesting in all the years you have played some of the other teams in the SWC and Big 12 that you wouldn't consider them as rivals.

I am guessing probably because they were all one sided.

2 of these 3 are pretty one-sided also
Texas 76 Aggie 37
Texas 56 Pig 23

No because I don't mind our former Big 12 foes such as Texas Tech or Ok State. It's not like I have anything against them.

And I don't care anything about the B1G yankee teams.

There is zero trash talk between Texas and OU fans on this board.

The Texas and Arkansas series was a big deal from 1959 to 1992 that included 20 games decided by 7 points or less.

It was one sided before the Broyles/Royal years when college football wasn't modern. And not nearly the same level of games during that time period when Broyles was hired in 1958.

Same for me except LSU which we don't have much history playing.
