After Auburn, is it Tennessee, LSU, or someone else?
I know Tennessee has traditionally been a better rivalry on the field, but since the emergence of LSU as a powerhouse and Tennessee's struggles of late, who is it?

Some of them consider Tenn a bigger rival than Auburn

LSU is a practical obstacle right now but not a rival with the same degree of hatred that Auburn and Tenn generate.

So I'd say:

1) Auburn
2) Tenn
3) ULM

Unless you're under 14 or older than 60 and from North Alabama

UT and AU are the two biggest rivals and there is no debate.

Same argument was made about UF just a few years ago and you see how quickly that fizzled. It will take a long time (and will likely never happen) for AU or UT to be replaced.

We don't have rivals... only schools that temporarily might beat us until we restore order on that arse.

The barners are first and the smokey boys are 2nd. They are losing rival status in my book soon though. The wins just feel boring after winning every year.

They keep trying to be Arkansas' rival but we had to pass on them, such a shame to, the way we have been beating their asses lately in football it would have been a good rivalry.

I'd rank them as follows:

1) Auburn
2) Tennessee
3) Georgia (Sad we don't play them anymore)
4) Florida (Always hated the Gators since Spurrier)
5) LSU

If you were born after 1978 then Auburn is likely the top rival. If you were born prior to 1979 or live in northeast Alabama then UTk is likely the top rival. If you live in Southwest Alabama then LSU is likely considered to be a bigger rival than UTk.

For me UTk is top / Auburn is second / LSU is the game that always seems to be competative and fun for the fans / LSU game is usually a clean but very hard fought game
