Bama/LSU is just not a true rivalry.
What does that even mean? Geographic?

Because we are obviously the greatest competitive rivalry in all of college athletics.

We are also conference and division rivals.

We also played each other for a national title.

There are plenty of factors that say "true rivalry".

Do I harbor hate for Bama? No.

Only team I have ever had a visceral disdain for, is Auburn

That's definitely part of it. Look at just about any other big rivalry. Either in-state or bordering states. Bama/LSU are neither.

For the last two years, sure. Like I said, so were Bama and UF for two years. And for several years in the 90s. But no one calls us rivals. It's not a true rivalry.
